Hello,
Our forum is stored on a subdomain:
http://forum.mysite.com The forum is located inside its own directory:
http://forum.mysite.com/vb
I installed this version like instructed by the manual. So, the .htacces goes to
http://forum.mysite.com/vb and the whole vbseo_sitemap directory and contents to
http://forum.mysite.com/vb. Folders are CHMOD 777. In the ACP VBSEO settings search engines are notified automatically.
I ran the sitemap script and sitemaps are generated and stored inside
http://forum.mysite.com//vb/vbseo_sitemap/data/
According to the report list in the ACP, the search engines are notified (confusing again, because Yahoo has to be notified manually?). According to the sitemap download log, the files are downloaded by googlebot. They were downloaded more than once yesterday after having installed the hack (shouldn't that be just once?).
Today there still is not a single sitemap file in google webmasters tool.
I guess something is still wrong?
This also confuses me. In the ACP/VBSEO settings it reads:
By default the vBSEO Sitemap files will be located in your forum root. Use this field to specify a different location, for example, your site root: http://www.yourdomain.com
NOTE: You must edit the .htaccess file of the folder in which you want to locate your sitemap files. More information here. Leave this setting empty to use default vB url.
I thought the files are stored in
http://forum.mysite.com//vb/vbseo_sitemap/data/ by default?
