vBSEO Sitemap Generator 2.5 Released

I get database error when I Run Sitemap Generator. please help me. I really confuse.

You need to supply us the error details. Please use vBSEO Google/Yahoo Sitemap - Troubleshooting at vBSEO.com for Sitemap Generator problems. This is announcement thread.

Yikes, fixed.

In the 2.5 .htaccess the line is

Code:

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

In the vBSEO one it is

Code:

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

Which one is the correct one to use?

Both should work, but use the one provided in the default vbseo download.

If we are vBSEO users we are told to skip that .htaccess part of the Sitemap install IIRC.

Correct, if you are a vbseo user, then that line is already in your .htaccess.

I`m still on the 2.2 version. Still running fine with vBSEO updated to 3.3.0 Gold, and vb 3.7.4. I don`t use member stuff. Do I still need to upgrade ?

Yes you should upgrade to 2.5 as new smart priority system is included to 2.5 in order to prevent similar priority warniings in webmasters account

Some complain :-)

Before my update from 2.2 to 2.5, i used "DownloadsII vBSEO Extension" with this Version of "vbseo_sm_downloads.php" Addon.
Everything was fine. My vbseod clean DownloadsII URLs are redirect, also if i renamed the title of the files/urls. And Sitemap generates vbseod URLs.
So everything works like a charm.

After my update to 2.5:
The attachement in the WIKI http://www.vbseo.com/wiki/vBSEO_Comp...k:Downloads_II
is a older version (1.1) not the new one (1.2)!!!
If i used the standard Version of "vbseo_sm_downloads.php" Addon, then the Sitemap Generator generates non vbseod clean urls.
Should i use this Version of "vbseo_sm_downloads.php" Addon???


So my suggestion for this and further Version of the Sitemap Generator Tool.
Please updated it at once!
Also the Addons, Extension and so on. And all Admins will love you!

So can you fix that and give us asap feedback how we use vBSEO Sitemap Generator 2.5 with vBSEO Sitemap Generator 2.1 - vBSEO DownloadsII Extension and this Downloads II vBSEO Extension

Please give support!

The Downloadlink in Wiki is updated to 1.2 Version of DownloadsII vBSEO Extension!
Thank you Oleg!

Now, what aboout the problem with the Sitemap Generator 2.5 Addon "vbseo_sm_downloads.php"?
The standard one in the .zip File don't generate vbseod clean url, if you also used the downloadsII extension.

Should i use this Version of "vbseo_sm_downloads.php" Addon???

You should set "$dl_seourls = true;" in the code to use SEOed URLs.

I have VBSEO and Sitemap installed.

Sitemap was installed first and I just bought VBSEO and it was installed this weekend over everything.

My AdminCP shows no information when I click the link for Sitemap Option. I can see the Sitemap reports page and VBSEO options page fine, but the Sitemap option page just lists nothing.

Any clue why?

Are you running the latest 2.5 version? Also, as a temporary work around, you can go into the vbulletin options and vbseo will be in the dropdown.

Try vbseo_sm_downloads2.php add-on.

Yes I am running 2.5

But I did find a clue!

When look at the Vbulletin Options drop down I see it goes to the url

Code:

http://www.example.com/forums/admincp/options.php?do=options&dogroup=vbseo_sitemap

But when I click on the VBSEO 'vbSEO Sitemap Settings' link on the left menu it has the url

Code:

http://www.example.com/forums/admincp/options.php?do=optionsdogroup=vbseo_sitemap

As you can see the url's are different! One is missing the & symbol. Where can I go to correct the url? Is this a problem with the release or was something done by editing a file?

I think I found the file: cpnav_vbseo_sitemap.xml

and it says

Code:

<navoption displayorder="20">
   <phrase>vbseo_sm_settings</phrase>
   <link>../{$vbulletin->config[Misc][admincpdir]}/options.php?do=options&amp;dogroup=vbseo_sitemap</link>
  </navoption>

Why would the Ampersand not show up?
