| Thank you. This is exactly what I was hoping someone would do. I put together the notes, but was not sure I had all the information. The one thing in my notes that I do not see mentioned is a VBSEO setting: Under: Footer Archive Links Options: Choose:Do not add Links to Archive Pages Select this option to keep the default settings. This will remove the numbers at the bottom of the page that now just redirect back to your home page when your archive/sitemap is disabled. Cheers, Bruce |

| Step 4: I cannot find vBSEO Google/Yahoo Sitemap Generator under my vBulletin Options. Am I missing something? Also, why do we need block access to /sitemap ? I thought it's still good to have the sitemap installed? |

| @Bruce, thanks for the reminder, I added that step to origional post. @Jason, it should be in there. Did you check near the bottom? If not do you see it on the left hand side of your screen under the vBSEO group? Last edited by Joe Ward; 07-02-2008 at 01:36 PM. |
