Question Quick Site Map Question

We are still not sure what to do with this link

http://www.puremarketprofits.com/forums/sitemap_index.xml.gz

It leads to our forum home page.

Thanks in advanced.

Are you using the default vBSEO .htaccess file? It should show the XML sitemap file instead of redirecting.

I do believe we are using the .htaccess file belonging to vbseo.

I'm not sure what the .htaccess file should have, but we do have this code installed:


Code:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]


What else are we missing?

Is that the entire contents of the .htaccess located in your forum root?

No, do you want to see all of the contents?

Remove those last two lines, for sure. If you look up above, the sitemap rule is already included with the default vBSEO rules.

Ok, that appears to have done it.


So what good will this do?

Another thing.

We have renamed or admincp and modcp for security reasons.
Should we update the names of these sections in the .htaccess file where it says admincp|modcp|?


Code:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !^(admincp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images)/
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ vbseo.php?vbseourl=$1 [L,QSA]
