Hi,

The xml sitemap generator module does not list categories if there are no products. This is a major problem for this site. Is there anyway to remove the restriction that prevents the categories from showing up if there are no products?

Thanks in advance.

uh oh spoke too soon. Just found that the categories stop at only one sub-sub-category and skips the rest. Example:
..../catalog/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=59_61
..../catalog/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=59_61_371 (it quits reading the rest of the sub-sub-categories after the first one)
there is a 59_61_83, 59_61_84 and one more with a 59_61_371_375 which is a sub-sub-sub-category.
but it is grabbing all the categories and the sub-categories, just not all the sub-subs and sub-sub-subs.

Something is wrong. For me there is no difference between the sub-category or sub-sub-category. We consider all enabled categories regardless of nesting. In sitemap not included only categories with only one product and only if the option SKIP_SINGLE_PRODUCT_CATEGORIES is enabled.

Can you PM me access to ftp? Then I can see what is not working specifically in your store.

I figured I ask before I start ripping the code apart. :lookaroun

Google has suggest that a client set the GTIN to false due to the fact none of his products have a UPC. Any suggestions.

In my robot.txt file I have:
Sitemap: http://www dot meafordwool dot com/sitemap dot xml

Should I/Can I add http://meafordwool dot com/sitemap. dot xml ?

I have both set up on google but for the non-www I get a 'pending' on the sitemap, while the www one shows as processed almost immediately.

Thanks.

Of course you can. But why? You can not sit on two chairs.
In Google Search Console goto Site Settings and set Preferred domain. If you install zen-cart to domain www dot meafordwool dot com, then set Preferred domain to www dot meafordwool dot com.

Hi Andrew, will get that PM info to you shortly. Let me know what you find out.
thanks.

Hi Guys:

I just installed sitemapXML and went back to Admin -> Tools -> Sitemap XML to Install Sitemap XML SQL and it's not there. I am running v1.5.4. I went back several times to make sure all of the files were uploaded properly. Don't know what happened? www.mygiftsite.com

Any help is appreciated,
