Google SitemapAdmin

v 1.3.18 15.04.2008 15:20
1. Bug fix in ez-pages links
2. Add skipping 1-prod categories (if 'Skip 1-prod Categories' setting to 'True').

I just installed Google Sitemap for Zen Cart Version 1.3.8 on a new and running ZenCart 1.3.8a site. The Google Sitemap version is v 1.3.18 added in the ZenCart Downloads section yesterday (April 15, 2008).

The install.sql code was cut and pasted into the admin-> tools -> Install SQL Patches window as instructed.

Google Sitemap Configuration does not appear in admin-> configuration as stated in the instructions and Google XML Sitemap appears in admin-> configuration when it should appear in admin-> tools.

I'm a bit baffled by the SQL code provided. Could you take a look and see if it is correct?

Thanks, Ron

Hey all,

First, thx for Googlesitemaps tool.
I've just installed googlesitemaps v1.3.18 on a zencart v1.3.8a.
I ran the sql patches and did the config.
After, I went to Admin->Tools>Google XML Sitemap and click on "Here" link. There were two problems:

The first one: "File "robots.txt" not found in save path..". For this one, I've added a file called robots.txt in which I wrote: "Sitemap: http://www.tlsystems.co.uk/sitemapindex.xml". After I've done this, the message "File "robots.txt" not found in save path.." disapeared. Was it the right way to fix it ?

The second one: it is written "Notice: Object of class queryFactoryResult could not be converted to int in Unknown on line 0" on the bottom of the popup which appears when I clicked on "Here" or on "send" button from the page "Google XML Sitemap Admin"

Thx.
Fab.

I'm sorry Andrew, I don't understand your question.

I have sucessfully installed earlier versions of your Google Sitemaps on other websites and praise your fine work.

The only thing I can think of is that the SQL install didn't go right. Perhaps when I did the copy and paste I missed a portion of the script. I would be happy to re-copy and paste and run the script but not confident whether that would mess things up further. What is your opinion? Is it relatively safe to re-run the SQL?

Best wishes, Ron

RESOLVED

Ran uninstall.sql then ran install.sql.
Realized that when install.sql originally opened in notepad for copy/paste operation that not all of the code was selected for pasting.

Yes.

"Notice: Object of class queryFactoryResult could not be converted to int in Unknown on line 0"

zen-cart dev team argues that this is not an error.
I forgot to delete debugging.
File googlesitemap.php. Lines 20-21:

  @ini_set('display_errors', '1');
  error_reporting(E_ALL);

replace by

//  @ini_set('display_errors', '1');
//  error_reporting(E_ALL);

Ok, Thx very much for this quick answer.

Unfortunately, I've got 2 other troubles.

My sitemapindex.xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="gss.xsl"?>
<sitemapindex xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9
http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9/siteindex.xsd"
xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
</sitemapindex>

Inside the sitemapindex tag, I suppose I should find links to the other sitemaps i.e. categories, ezpages and products ?


For info: sitemapcategories.xml and sitemapproducts.xml are fine.


In Google webmaster Tools, I went to add a sitemap, then I chose "add a general web sitemap" and then put "googlesitemap.php?inline=yes" inside the box.
Now the status of this is "errors" and it is written in the details "empty sitemap". Is it because google was waiting for a xml file and not a php file ? Or is it because my sitemapindex sitemap is empty ?


Thx.
Fab.

It is because your sitemapindex sitemap is empty. But why this happens, I do not understand :-(

hi all can anyone shed some light on this issue i am having within google webmaster tools, i get this error message:

Sitemap errors and warnings



Line Status Details - URLs not followed
When we tested a sample of the URLs from your Sitemap, we found that some URLs were not accessible to Googlebot because they contained too many redirects. Please change the URLs in your Sitemap that redirect and replace them with the destination URL (the redirect target). All valid URLs will still be submitted.



Details



just found this in google help pages but i am still non the wiser :

302 (Moved temporarily) The server is currently responding to the request with a page from a different location, but the requestor should continue to use the original location for future requests. This code is similar to a 301 in that for a GET or HEAD request, it automatically forwards the requestor to a different location, but you shouldn't use it to tell the Googlebot that a page or site has moved because Googlebot will continue to crawl and index the original location.


any ideas on what to do anyone!!!

HTTP Error:
URL:
Found: 302 (Moved temporarily)
http://www.xxxxxxxx.co.uk/index.php?main_page=account

whats a redirect and how can i solve this warning???
