    Changing Data Output folder.

    Hello All

    Is there anyway to change the output destination of the Sitemap?

    Curentally its going to /vbseo_sitemap/Data

    I have my google sitemap account set up to look at the root

    Id prefer it if I could get all sitemap files to be outputted to the root if possible.

    Im using Windows server btw.

    I have set up a seperate sitemap in google to point to the data folder - does this matter - Will the site still get crawled properally if its picking the sitemaps up from uk-muscle.co.uk/vbseo_sitemap/data/

    Cheers (Great product by the way!!)

    when you are submitting your sitemap to google you must enter it like www.yourdomain.com/sitemap_index.xml.gz it will automatically redirect it to vbseo_sitemap/data/ folder.
    If you have more then 1 sitemap you can add all one by one to your google account.

    That dosnt work, as im runnin windows server, so it wont use the .htaccess file.

    Ive found how to do it anyway.

    In the VBSEO_Sitemap_functions.php i had to change the DAT folder line to:

    define('VBSEO_DAT_FOLDER', dirname(__FILE__) . '/../')

    Ta

    Try using the following ISAPI rewrite rule instead of the .htaccess one included with the package:
    Code:
     
    RewriteRule ^/vBroot/(sitemap.*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ /vBroot/vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]
