That will be included in the next version. Also, I think their is a fix posted in the forums to have it ping them.
Will search for it.

No biggie, since I couldn't read it I just added it below the one for live.com. I've removed it now, and once again thank you for the help.
Oddly enough I've only recently heard of Bing.... I kept having it show up on another site that I have the Referred Sites plugin on and wonder what the heck it was.
Glad all is sorted out now!![]()

How long should I expect to wait before my site starts showing up on Bing? I ask because I started submitting the Sitemap to Bing before I made these changes and still have nothing. Even typing out the entire url as the search returns nothing........ I'm really beginning to dislike Bing.
Strange, As soon as I Add the sitemap Bing Bots have start visit my site and start index it
Make Sure you are submitting your sitemap also if all things is right and you are already submit your sitemap Be sure you will see the results in Bing Soon It may take some little time
I did multiple times now. Apparently I'm submitting the wrong one or type. Which one should I submit?
Bing Bots accept .xml.gz sitemaps , submit sitemap_index.xml.gz
Ok, I submitted the right one then. Thanks Marco, perhaps I was getting a little impatient. I see what happens in the next week or two.
You are welcome Jeff![]()

Unveiling the NEW vBSEO Sitemap Generator 3.0. - available NOW for vBSEO Customers!
Did that yesterday. Oddly enough after I did that and added the verification meta tag, Bing started crawling my site. So far they've only crawled the index page, but that's a start.
