    Sitemap installed, where do I get the password

    Hi all

    Any help with the following would be appreciated!

    I've just installed both vbseo and sitemap on my magazine forum website which I'm going to start to work on

    Magsite.co.uk Magazine Subscription Offers Forum - Powered by vBulletin

    I ran the shceduled test in the admincp and it updated the following files.

    http://www.magsite.co.uk/forum/vbseo...p_index.xml.gz
    http://www.magsite.co.uk/forum/vbseo...temap_1.xml.gz
    http://www.magsite.co.uk/forum/vbseo...urllist.txt.gz

    1) I believe the top 2 are for google and the bottom for yahoo. Problem is the links don't work. not sure why though??

    2) Also when I go into vBSEO Google / Yahoo Sitemap for vBulletin it asks for a password. Where do I find that password as I can't find it in admincp?

    1) The path to your sitemap would be: http://www.magsite.co.uk/forum/sitemap_index.xml.gz

    2) You need to set the password in AdminCP -> vBulletin Options -> vBSEO Sitemap options.

    Really quick reply, thanks Keith

    http://www.magsite.co.uk/forum/sitemap_index.xml.gz brings up a page but its empy, just wondering when will it update? (I ran the scheduled test)

    One the second one I've checked all of vBulletin Options but theres no vBSEO Sitemap Options. Have I not uploaded something?

    That link works for me. That's the index, and it will include links to any/all sitemaps that your site generates. That is the link you should submit to Google.

    Did you install the vBSEO Sitemap XML vBulletin Product file?

    Check to make sure the vBSEO Sitemap scheduled task was added (it should be automatically added when you install).
