Moved Forum Location: What is the URL for sitemap?

[LPH2005]

OK. I am trying to figure out what happened but I killed three active sites.

The main forums were in the root and the site was getting 500+ in traffic. The forums were moved to /technology and I combined three sites into one. The site now is lucky to get 200+. The graphs show a steady decline.

I reinstalled vbseo sitemap but the reporting in Google Webmaster Tools must be wrong and I am not sure what address to tell the tools site where the map is located.

This is the form to fill out but how in the world do I get the sitemap into the highest level?

1. I've created a Sitemap in a supported format. [?]
2. I've uploaded my Sitemap to the highest-level directory to which I have access.
3. My Sitemap URL is: Technology Questions
Example: http://www.technologyquestions.com/sitemap.xml The Sitemap must be located at Technology Questions. To add a Sitemap at vBSEO Google / Yahoo Sitemap for vBulletin, first add that site to your account and then click the Add a Sitemap link beside it.

Update: Forgot to include that the report of logs in the vbseo admin panel is empty.

Thank you. I think my explanation was not good.

In working longer with Google Webmaster Tools - the sitemaps are not being seen properly. The error is that no URLs are being submitted.

I tried to set the sitemap to the root and also to the domain.com/technology/sitemap_index.xml.gz and get the same error.

Is there something wrong with the .htaccess because when I follow the link in the reports of the admin then I get a url not found?

Update: OK. Please move this thread to the proper forum. Also, the trick was the permissions in the data file. All is well now.

Also, the trick was the permissions in the data file. All is well now.

I'm glad this is sorted now.
