Hello,

1. you should only submit xml sitemap to Google.

2. sitemap URL would be: http://www.domain.com/forum/sitemap_index.xml.gz

3. Search results number is inaccurate, I'd pay more attention to this number:
Code:
Indexed URLs: 123320
Although your goal is to track the number of visitors referred by search engines (using Google Analytics, for instance) rather than the number of pages indexed.

ok Great , thanks for answers .

The old problem is appearing now again . Google Shows error in all my sitemaps . i had this problem with old versions too . i deleted all of them and upgraded to newest version and then regenerate all the sitemaps to hope that these errors will be gone but still they are exist .

I attached an screenshot from my google webmaster page :


so here is the questions :
1- how can i resolve these problems in my sitemaps .
2- is it possible that these errors would be a reason to effect to my website google rank ?
3 - as you can see i have 50,000 links in the sitemap but just 4844 of them indexed . is it normal ? anyway to make it faster ?

Thanks in advance .

Sitemap should be regenerated for that, since you have "replace post number with permalink" option enabled, showpost links should not be included in sitemap now.

You should disable them (if you have permalinks option enabled), remove sitemap files and recreate sitemap.

If it was the showpost links that were removed they would have been duplicates.

You figure that the showthread page contains lets say ten posts. That means that if you have the showposts enabled, it has another 10 different showposts for every one that is on that page.

here is the Warning message from google :

Quote:
All the URLs in your Sitemap have the same priority.
All the URLs in your Sitemap are set to the same priority (not the default priority). Priority indicates the importance of a particular URL relative to other URLs on your site, and doesn't impact your site's performance in search results. If all URLs have the same priority, Google can't tell which are more important.
Appeared in sitemap 2 , 3 and sitemap_index.xml.gz .

p.s. thanks for trying to help.
