Version 1.0.4
(By Boofo)

What does this product do?
This product will add a Site Map to your site, similar to the one on vbulletin.org, but with no queries.

Version Information:
Version 1.0.1 --Initial release for vB3.7
Version 1.0.2 --Added additional site links to the bottom of the site map.
Version 1.0.3 --Added checks for external files (PhotoPost, The Arcade, Paul M's Flashchat Integration hack for vB3.7 and The Radio and TV hack). If the corresponding files are found on your site in their default locations, the links will show for those hacks. If the files are not found, the links will not show. Also added RSS Feeds buttons for Google, Windows Live and Yahoo.
Version 1.0.4 --Code has been totally re-written. Added RSS Feeds buttons for MSN, AOL, Bloglines, Newsgator and Technorati. Added new mouseover affect. Redid the file checks and made some of them product checks. Added vB News link.

Branding: A Copyright has been added to the footer and is not allowed to be removed. If you want the copyright removed, you must contact me via PM for terms.

Hey there Bob!

This works GREAT on 3.6.7! I LOVE it!!!

However, it is NOT pulling in any of the information from my vBadvanced products as I had hoped. (It does not map any vBa product categories.)

My Site Map

My vBa Articles Section

My vBa Media Section

My vBa Links Directory

It seems to me that it wouldn't be too hard to direct this product to search in these other areas as well, however this is beyond my abilities.

I know that a huge portion of this community runs vBa on their site. Could you possilby modify your code to include the vBa products in your very cool Site Map?

This is awesome! I just hope I can use it for my whole site! You get this to work on vBa, and you'll get my vote for Mod of the Month!

Thanks for all your hard work!

Jeff

Apparently, your vBa areas don't use the forumcache. As I don't use vBa, I have no way of knowing how they are pulling the areas. They would have to be added manually, I'm afraid.

Hello Bob,

What do you mean by "added manually"? What, where, and how would I add these? I'm not afraid of a little work, just show me the way.

Thanks!
Jeff

As I said, I don't run any vBa stuff so I have no idea how they pull anything. Check with the author and see if he will tell you how they do it.

Hello Bob,

Ok. I put a request in with Brian at vBadvanced. Hopefully he'll have time to respond and help out.

I think this mod could really catch fire if people could use it accross platforms such as vBa!

Thanks!
Jeff
