Google SitemapAdmin

Well, following to the older forum topic
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=28492&highlight=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?

Re: Google SitemapAdmin

Im not sure what your question actually is? :blink:
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?

Re: Google SitemapAdmin

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 !

Re: Google SitemapAdmin

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?

Re: Google SitemapAdmin

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.

It appears under both the Configuration and Tools menus. Configure the mod in the Configuration menu and then execute the mod via the Tools menu.

Woodymon --

Well, then I'm back to problem #1 -- it's not in my 'Tools' menu.

I'm able to generate the site map by executing 'googlesitemap.php' from my browser, which seems to work.

Any idea what's going on/not going on?

Re: Google SitemapAdmin

Some possibilities:

Are you running Admin Levels or Admin Profiles? If so you may not have checked the check box enabling Google Sitemap in Tools menu.

Or could be that you don't have all the mod files properly uploaded. For example /admin/includes/boxes/extra_boxes/googlesitemap_tools_dhtml.php

When requesting assistance please post version of Zen Cart and version/date of mod that you have installed.

Re: Google SitemapAdmin

Woody --

Thanks for getting back to me.

Well, I re-unzipped the files & re-copied them to my site, & now all is working fine. Got a 'Google XML Sitemap' entry in both the 'Configuration' and 'Tools' menus, the .xml files seem to be generated properly, & all is right with the world.

Go figure. Probably operator error on my part somewhere. I'm just glad it's working.

For the record, I'm running Zen Cart 1.3.0.1, with (I believe) all of the current bug-fixes applied.

The mod is identified as: "// $Id: googlesitemap.php admin page,v 1.0 8/11/2005 [email protected]".

The set-up is Mac OS X 10.4, Apache/1.3.33 (Darwin) PHP/5.1.2 & MySQL 4.0.21 Complete by Server Logistics.

Re: Google SitemapAdmin

Hello!
I am running Zen ver 1.2.7 and trying to install the Google SitemapAdmin but keep coming up with an error when I try to install the SQL patch.

I have uploaded all the files and changed all the .xml files to 777, the link for Google XML Sitemap shows on my menu but as I said when I try to install the patch I get:

1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'true', 'false'),')' at line 1

I have not edited/changed anything, and here is what is in the googlesitemap.sql file I have:

SET @t4=0;
SELECT (@t4:=configuration_group_id) as t4
FROM configuration_group
WHERE configuration_group_title= 'Google XML Sitemap';
DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_group_id = @t4;
DELETE FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_id = @t4;

insert into configuration_group (configuration_group_id, configuration_group_title, configuration_group_description, sort_order, visible) values ('', 'Google XML Sitemap', 'Google XML Sitemap Configuration', '1', '1');
SET @t1=last_insert_id();
UPDATE configuration_group SET sort_order = @t1 WHERE configuration_group_id = @t1;

insert into configuration values ('', 'Compress XML File', 'GOOGLE_SITEMAP_COMPRESS', 'false', 'Compress Google XML Sitemap file', @t1, 3, NULL, NOW(), NULL, 'zen_cfg_select_option(array(\'true\', \'false\'),');
insert into configuration values ('', 'Products changefreq', 'GOOGLE_SITEMAP_PROD_CHANGE_FREQ', 'weekly', 'How frequently the Product pages page is likely to change.', @t1, 3, NULL, NOW(), NULL, 'zen_cfg_select_option(array(\'always\', \'hourly\', \'daily\', \'weekly\', \'monthly\', \'yearly\', \'never\'),');
insert into configuration values ('', 'Category changefreq', 'GOOGLE_SITEMAP_CAT_CHANGE_FREQ', 'weekly', 'How frequently the Category pages page is likely to change.', @t1, 3, NULL, NOW(), NULL, 'zen_cfg_select_option(array(\'always\', \'hourly\', \'daily\', \'weekly\', \'monthly\', \'yearly\', \'never\'),');
insert into configuration values ('', 'Lastmod tag format', 'GOOGLE_SITEMAP_LASTMOD_FORMAT', 'date', 'Lastmod tag format:<br />date - Complete date: YYYY-MM-DD (eg 1997-07-16)<br />full - Complete date plus hours, minutes and seconds: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZD (eg 1997-07-16T19:20:30+01:00)', @t1, 3, NULL, NOW(), NULL, 'zen_cfg_select_option(array(\'date\', \'full\'),');
insert into configuration values ('', 'Category priority', 'GOOGLE_SITEMAP_CAT_CHANGE_PRIOR', '0.5', 'The default priority of the products URL. Valid values range from 0.0 to 1.0.', @t1, 3, NULL, NOW(), NULL, NULL);
insert into configuration values ('', 'Products priority', 'GOOGLE_SITEMAP_PROD_CHANGE_PRIOR', '0.5', 'The default priority of the products URL. Valid values range from 0.0 to 1.0.', @t1, 3, NULL, NOW(), NULL, NULL);


Thanks,

Re: Google SitemapAdmin

Thanks Andrew, I will take a look. It seems kind of strange though considering that when I added the USER TRACKING mod I used the Install SQL Patches and it worked perfect. Thanks for the input and I will check it out.

Re: Google SitemapAdmin

A dummy question:

Google sitemapAdmin has generated three XMLs: sitemapcategories.xml, sitemapindex.xml, sitemapproducts.xml. Do I need to upload all three xmls to google, or just load sitemapindex.xml?

Thanks.

The following error occurred:
