Google SitemapAdmin

[pivey]

Well, following to the older forum topic
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showth...light=sitemaps

I have a question regarding this mod.
I have a 3 languages store, so when the sitemap is genarated, links like these accour, displaying the lang ID as well:

.....main_page=product_info&language=GR&products_id=1104
or
....main_page=product_info&language=DE&products_id=2364

Any suggestions?

Im not sure what your question actually is?
But as far as I know its meant to do that otherwise anyone visiting your site might not have the right language and not understand?

Hi Reesy,

I did a closer inspection inside the .xml Looks like the script generates links to a specific product for each language defined. So, each product is indexed 3 times (in my case)
I thought it was an error.
However, Google accepted the xml, so I'm happy !

Ummm... has this been updated for 1.3?

I installed it, ran the SQL patch, changed permissions, & nothing showed up in Admin / Tools.

No errors, no feedback, nothing.

Any ideas?

It's work normally in 1.3.0.1

A quick note -- you might want to revise the 'readme.txt' file.

It advises the user to:

"3. Go to admin>tools>Google XML Sitemap;"

when it actually appears in "Admin > Configuration > Google XML Sitemap."

I just didn't see it when I looked as directed. Once I found it, it seems to be working very nicely; thank you for an extremely useful mod.

Hi guys.

Wonderful tool this Google Sitemap Admin. However, I got it to work on a smaller site with some 500 products, but not on a site with some 20.000 products.

1. I added the sql patch and made the xml files 777, but it still does nothing.

2. I tried making the limit of number of links and size bigger, but to no avail.

I can tell the php is doing something, i.e. making the query and working, since it takes quite a while before the "Done" pops up in the window. However the "Done-page" is blank and the xml files are still 0 size.

Any suggestions?

And to answer a question:

http://www.netgifts.biz/index.php?main_page=product_music_info&products_id=188

that listing leads to an empty page at my website because of incorrect separator ";" - there should by "&".

any ideas why the xml files are being created incorrectly?

Go here: http://www.google.com/webmasters/sit...temapXMLFormat

and scroll down to "Entity escaping". Your site map is not generated wrong. It is generated correct for the GoogleBot.

Also there is a space here:
".... product<space>s_id=188" ,

which I'm guessing shouldnt be there.

I got it to work on a smaller site with some 500 products, but not on a site with some 20.000 products.

Try to add

set_time_limit(0); 

after

require_once('includes/application_top.php'); 

in googlesitemap.php.

I'll give it a try and let you know. Thank you. :)

Andrew - will the Google Sitemap on your site work with Zencart 1.27 ?
