Sitemap help
I looked through the threads at vb.org and didnt find a answer.

I installed the sitemap mod and for some reason my yahoo sitemap isnt created

It says 0kb the google one comes up fine.

I also tried to acess the compressed version of the file and it redirects me to the main page.

sitemap.txt.gz = 0kb

Re: Sitemap help
Do you mind linking me to your homepage. Also have you uploaded the Sitemap plugin?

Re: Sitemap help
Hi,


Make sure that you have correct rewrite rule in .htaccess:
Quote:
RewriteRule ^(sitemap.*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]
AND "Create Yahoo Sitemap" option is enabled in vB Admincp.

Re: Sitemap help
Code:
# Comment the following line (add '#' at the beginning)
# to disable mod_rewrite functions.
# Please note: you still need to disable the hack in
# the vBSEO control panel to stop url rewrites.
RewriteEngine On
# Some servers require the Rewritebase directive to be
# enabled (remove '#' at the beginning to activate)
# Please note: when enabled, you must include the path
# to your root vB folder (i.e. RewriteBase /forums)
#RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(sitemap.*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L] 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} (admincp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images)/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1 [L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !vbseourl=
RewriteRule ^(.*\.php)$ vbseo.php?vbseourl=$1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^(archive/.*)$ vbseo.php?vbseourl=$1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ vbseo.php?vbseourl=$1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
Im a bit confused i followed the directions on vb.org u are telling me to change the first line and the... the updated 2.2 version says its already comptitable

which is the right way ?

Re: Sitemap help
The rewrite rule line was changed in the Sitemap Generator v1.2 (you have correct one in the quoted code).
What is your sitemap.txt.gz URL?
