SitemapXML v.2

I am using 1.3.9h on 2 zencart stores. I had no issues running Sitemap XML. I do not remember having to make any code changes. I did, however, change the Ping URL's to this, which was provided in this thread and everything worked perfectly. Thanks

Google => http://www.google.com/webmasters/sit...ng?sitemap=%s; Yahoo! => http://search.yahooapis.com/SiteExpl...ooDemo&url=%s; Ask.com => http://submissions.ask.com/ping?sitemap=%s; Bing.com => http://www.bing.com/webmaster/ping.aspx?sitemap=%s

How do I delete the old Google Sitemap? As I have both appear side by side.

Thanks

is there anyway to order my product sitemap by price instead of date added? i use easy populate so my products are all generaly updated at th same time?

I understand that the author said he thought define pages were archaic and are not supported in this mod, maybe they are a bit aged. But I see that the Zen Cart 1.3.9h is still using a define page for home index. Has everybody figured out how to make an EZ pages their home page? I haven't and I am surprised at the very few mentioned posts in here such as from Zean in August of 2009.:huh:

So, if I was to try and patch in my important "define pages"urls in say the EZ-pages xml that is generated, does anyone think that would work? (That is after I learn how to do it).

I've uploaded SitemapXML following the instructions, however I'm up to step 4 and cannot find google XML sitemap listed under Tools, what am I doing wrong?

Install:
========
1. Unzip and upload all files to your store directory;
2. Go to Admin->Tools->Install SQL Patches and install install.sql.
3. Go to Admin->Configuration->Google Sitemap Configuration and setup all parameters
4. Go to Admin->Tools>Google XML Sitemap (If error messages occur, change permissions on the XML files to 777);
5. To have this update and automatically notify Google, you will need to set up a Cron
job via your host's control panel.

Did you rename the admin folder to match the your folder admin folder name?

I uploaded the folder "sitemapXML" as an entire folder - doh! It's been properly uploaded now and works fine. Thanks! :)

Everything worked in the admin and then I went to Tools-Sitemap XML and saw this:

HEADING_TITLE

TEXT_SITEMAPXML_OVERVIEW_HEADTEXT_SITEMAPXML_OVERVIEW_TEXT TEXT_SITEMAPXML_INSTRUCTIONS_HEAD
TEXT_SITEMAPXML_INSTRUCTIONS_STEP1 TEXT_SITEMAPXML_INSTRUCTIONS_STEP2
TEXT_SITEMAPXML_LOGIN_HEAD
TEXT_SITEMAPXML_LOGIN

I double-checked everything, then set the xmls to 777, changed the ping urls as per the post higher up and still got this. I did not change anything else in Configuration-Sitemap XML.

I'm using 1.39g (based on the post higher up saying his is working on 1.39h). Any ideas, please?

Cheers,

Gift,
Take a look at post #96 and #97

Just want to be sure I understand how this addon works. By installing this addon will it generate the sitemap after it is installed and then I can submit it to the search engines?
