SitemapXML v.2

[mighty midget]

Hi,

I have tried changing the name of the template etc and admin folders and still nothing. I have noticed that a couple of the file sizes are slightly different when i have uploaded them from the origional size. Could that be the problem? My admin folder was still named admin so changed it to that before i uploaded and i have done the template name and tried all three, i have template_default, classic and Total Pleasure which is the name of my site and none of them worked so not sure which one i would use. I have only uploaded the contents of the XML file too. Not sure whats going on.

Yes if your file sizes are slightly different than the original I suggest you use a different ftp program like FileZilla and upload them again. I would delete the files that are different and re-upload them. This is most likely your problem.

Im currently using filezilla. Tried uploading them numerous times and they still come out different.

Hi,

I have tried deleting them and uploading them again one by one and they upload the correct size for a second then for some reason they are getting reduced. Could this be because the g-zip feature in my admin is turned on?

To answer my own question, NO. Just tried it and it is still reducing the file size.

when I pinned search engines get an error
Ping Google
http://www.google.com/webmasters/sit...temapindex.xml
cURL Error: "Received HTTP code 403 from proxy after CONNECT" reading "http://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/ping?sitemap=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.scandinavianfoodstore.com%2Fsitemapindex.xml"

Check the curl settings in the admin (cURL Proxy Status, cURL Proxy Address and other).

Hi,

I have followed all the steps and uploaded the files to the root of my site but i am not getting the option to install it when i come to complete step five. Admin -> Tools -> Sitemap XML and click "Install SitemapXML SQL". so not sure where i have gone wrong. Can anybody help me?

Check to make sure you have renamed the YOUR_Admin folder in sitemapXML folder to match the name of your custom admin folder. Make sure you have reamed the /includes/templates/template_default folder in sitemapXML folder to match the name of your custom /includes/templates/Your_Custom folder. Make sure when you upload the files that they are the right filesize.
Don't upload the sitemapXML folder to your sever just the contents in side that folder. If you uploaded all the files and they are in there right place there will be a install SitemapXML SQL under Admin -> Tools.

Hi countrycharm,

Andrew could you give mighty midget some direction in what to do. I don't know what else to suggest to him/her Thank You.

I do not know why he can not upload files to the server. More precisely, why uploaded files themselves are changing their size on the server. May be some restrictions on the server? Can be ended space? Can be installed on the server some protection? Let turn to a web hosting support.

P.S. Many thanks to you for your support! For your patience!
