SitemapXML v.2

[nicksab]

I see.
I was able to do the workaround activating "sideboxes" because I don't use sideboxes.
But you probably do.

workaround?

I use some EZ pages in sideboxes and footer but not in the header.

I guess I could turn header setting on and then hide it with a css display:none.

Is that how you do it with sideboxes?

After looking more into it ,turn on header with sort order >0 and turning EZpagesoff in configuration ( forgot there was an actual setting for it ) seems to be a good work around for now.

thanks all for the advice

I noticed that when the sitemap in generated.

via sitemapmainpage.xml the end of the home page shows this at the end of the url 'index.php?main_page=index'

Correct me if i am wrong but google does not like that for the home page. It should generate homepage like this be https://www.yoursite.com/

Where would I make that change?

I do have a question I am using a website called Attracta.com to submit my store to the search engines like Google, Bing and Yahoo. I have been using the full website like https://www.mywebsite.com instead of https://www.mywebsite.com/sitemap.xml. Do I really need use sitemap.xml to submit it or I can still use without it? What do you suggest?

Hello @lat9
Thank you for the latest upload, I have upgraded my old 3.9.6 installation in ZC 2.1.0 to 4.0.5 by first uninstalling the oldversion from the DB (files from old version were never ported, only DB entries remaining).
I noticed that the uninstall instructions at https://github.com/lat9/sitemapxml/wiki/Uninstalling have an error: the configuration_group delete query should use configuration_group_title not configuration_title.
