Google SitemapAdmin

Btw, I don't see Google XML Sitemap Admin in admin/Config, just in admin/Tools, but it's ok, it works fine.

My question is:
Google sitemaps asks me, when trying to add
sitemapindex.xml
as a mobile sitemap, what markup language I should choose. The 3 options are:
XHTML mobile profile (WAP 2.0)
WML (WAP 1.2)
cHTML (iMode)

I don't understand what these are, any idea what to choose? I have ZC v.1.3.7

Or should I add General Web Sitemap? :smile:

Adding just sitemapindex.xml is enough, right? No need to add the other two .xml files, for categories and products , right? ...

Quick question. I uploaded the three sitemaps created. And though still have the errors on the URLS....only one of the files is being listed (main sitemap) as having 2300 URLS submitted...the others do not show submitted urls, on the google sitemap screen. Is this normal?
You're only supposed to upload the main sitemap. This file references the others, so just leave those on your site but don't upload.

What can I do to fix this?
Thanks for the other replies :smile:

Add Italian localization. Thanks to Paolo.

All files are on server.
Ran sql and got errors. Used unistall sql.
Ran install_googlesitemap.php looked OK.

xml directory is default.
xml files are set to 777

Click on step 1 in xml sitemap admin gives me a 404

I cannot proceed?

Using 1.3.7

What could it be?

Ok I uninstalled ALL files. Restored my database to where it was before...

Then re-installed files, used install.....php option

and the same thing happens.
**NSTRUCTIONS: ** STEP 1: Click [HERE] to create / update your site map.

Clicking there brings up my homepage in the pop up window?
:wacko:

I hope I didn't waste anyones time. Somewhere along the line a file was missing.

1. Quick bug fix typo in /admin/googlesitemap.php

The so stupid typing error, that to me is a shame to tell :blush: :blush: :blush:

I uploaded all of the files for the mod, and when I wen to install the SQL patch I got this error.

1146 Table 'hotnbott_zc1.configuration_group' doesn't exist
in:
[SELECT @configuration_group_id:=configuration_group_id FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_title= 'Google XML Sitemap' LIMIT 1;]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

If I hit the browser back button and go into the admin, under tools the link for google site map is there, if I try to run the create/update program I get this error:

Can anyone help?

From readme.txt:

2. Go to Admin->Tools->Install SQL Patches and install googlesitemap.sql
   or
   Copy install_googlesitemap.php to the admin directory, start it, select Install and press GO button.
   Use install_googlesitemap.php.

The generation fails for zepages if i have ezpage defined but not activated (all button turned red ina dmin).
Is it a well known behaviour?

(running zc 1.3.7)

v 1.3.6a 03.03.2007 10:55

When all ez-pages disabled and any EZPages (Header or Sidebox or Footer) generation enabled, googlesitemap.php generate zero sitemapezpages.xml, that not included in sitemapindex.xml.

I was just wondering.

Yahoo has free sitemaps now too. And I'm pretty sure they accept .xml

• Sitemaps, as documented on www.sitemaps.org

So we should be able to submit the same sitemapindex.xml to yahoo?

I'm going to try it and see if it works:yes:
See what happens.

Yes. And I already talk about this. See http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpost.php?p=295950&postcount=137

Even with ez-pages enabled and showing on my site and ezpages sidebox generation enabled, I still get no ezpages in the sitemapindex.xml file and the sitemapezpages.xml file is empty.
