Re: Confused
It looks like you didn't make the .htaccess changes that are required.

(You should also set up a password for the Sitemap interface, using the option in AdminCP->vBulletin Options->Sitemap Options, so that it isn't open to the public.)

No not it. I followed the process again just in case I got the wrong first time.

Any other angles.

Yes I know once I sort this out I'll put the password back on. But cheers for pointing it out. Appreciated.

Re: Confused
Actually, I wasn't thinking anyway. If you are using the .htaccess from the latest version of vbSEO in your forums directory, then you would have the correct entry anyway. It comes with it, so no changes would be needed.

Yours looks incorrect though. The line should be:

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

Re: Confused
Zooman,

please make sure that rewrite rule is exactly the same as included in product description (it was slightly different in earlier version, so you may need to modify it).

Re: Confused
Pull the .htaccess file out of your vbSEO 2.3.2 zip file and upload it into your forums directory as-is, overwriting your current one. It doesn't need any editing and should work.

Sugar (that's not the word I'm thinking but there might be children reading this).

I've never liked Yahoo anywhere.
