    Sitemap not found

    I've installed vbseo sitemap, I have vbseo already so do not need the htaccess file, but my sitemap is not recognised. It should be here, shouldn't it?

    http://www.dead-island.com/forums/sitemap_index.xml

    But it ain't.

    Any suggestions?

    http://www.dead-island.com/forums/sitemap_index.xml.gz is the correct location

    You should upgrade to sitemap 3.0

    Thanks Brian.

    I will update.

    I am actually (upon checking) using the .gz URL, but I get an error on my webmaster tools page.

    Is this anything I should worry about?

    If you aren't using blogs, you should disable them from being included in the sitemap options panel.
