vBSEO Google/Yahoo Sitemap Report

Not sure what's happening here, every time a report comes through it goes up by one member if not more (now on 400 member profiles) thing is i only have 200 registered on my forums. I deleted a load of bots a month back or so, they come through because bot settings in vBulletin were turned off. I didn't want them dam bot things linked to my site in anyway so i got rid of them then turned the bot settings back on. None have come through since thank god lol.

How come members profiles show as 400 though. should be around 200

Here's my Sitemap Report

I don't get it heh ?

You need to rebuild your counters in the admin panel I think.

Admin >> Maintenance >> Update Counters >> Update Usernames

You may need to update a few of the other counters too, I am just guessing, but it seems that would be the problem.

I've tried that a few times before, doesn't seem to fix it. That's another thing I'd like to know too though. Is there a standard way to rebuild counters etc? Sometimes when I do it your told to do another one then the other one says do a different one and so on. A standard way of doing it would be good that i could just go through every couple of months or so

Hello Chris,

if you have "If you have vBSEO, include old urls" option enabled in sitemap generator settings, every URLs is included twice (original URL+SEOed URL), so you have twice as many URLs.

Yes I have it enabled. So that's why then. Cheers. Chris
