Hello,

To get the root-level URLs in the sitemaps index, you should modify vbseo_sitemap_functions.php file.
FIND:

PHP Code:

               'url'=>$vbseo_vars['bburl'] . '/' .$sm_filename, 


REPLACE WITH:

PHP Code:

               'url'=>'http://www.mysite.com/' .$sm_filename, 


Btw, you can just submit each sitemap file individually instead of the index file.
