WOW, probably one of the best upgrades I've ever made. My prior version required so much fixing and tweaking to get it working with my vba cmps. This version works right out of the box without a bunch of fuss. Combined with my vba and vbseo I can now concentrate on enjoying my forum.
One feature I really like is the ability to designate where the sitemap should be located. My sitemap has always been created in the /forum directory and listed the path as such in the xml file, despite all my redirect efforts. All I had to do was type in my root domain and now the <loc> is listed as http://bike-talk.com/sitemap_index.xml.gz instead of http://bike-talk.com/forum/sitemap_index.xml.gz Thanks guys, great job! |

you need to fix the cpnav_vbseo_sitemap.xml in there you will see <navgroup phrase="vbseo" displayorder="3"> it should be <navgroup phrase="vbseo_vbseo" displayorder="3"> if not it will show the incorrect phrase ( *[vbseo]* ) in admincp.

Mecho: I set mine to http://mydomain.com (use your actual root domain name) and it changed my sitemap to no longer read that its <LOC> to be in the /forum directory. If I leave it blank then the location seems to default to my forum directory. See example of my sitemap index below. Personally I think this (root) should be the prefered location if you have a homepage like vBa CMPS. Otherwise you are telling Google to crawl starting at your forum directory. Here is what my sitemap index now looks like: Code:
<sitemapindex xsi:schemaLocation=" http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9 http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/09/siteindex.xsd">
−
<sitemap>
<loc>http://bike-talk.com/sitemap_1.xml.gz</loc>
<lastmod>2007-04-13T10:23:19+00:00</lastmod>
</sitemap>
</sitemapindex>
