FixItPete Posted September 25, 2008 Posted September 25, 2008 Well all I did to take care of my problem was copy over my v1.5 with v2.0 of the dynamic sitemap file in the catalog and all is working 100% now. :) I also re-enabled the right side boxes, for some reason they were //ed out. ? I don't know if it was the right way, but not it works. ;) Quote I find the fun in everything.

azbrat3 Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 (edited) I did a fresh install of Dynamic Sitemap v 3.5.6, everything looks good. Site submits successfully! Only problem I am getting is lastmod not writing to http://castbakery.com/catalog/smmain.xml. In Webmaster tools, Google is returning Status Warnings: Total URLs in Sitemap: 31 for that file. Invalid date: An invalid date was found. Please fix the date or formatting before resubmitting. I've double checked the install, but I can't find anything I did wrong with it. I'm not sure if its a coding issue with the latest version. Edited October 12, 2008 by azbrat3 Quote

No1Son Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 (edited) HI help please!!!!…if anyone could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated as I have gooled to I’am blue in the face and cant seem to find an answer to my problem. I have install dynamic sitemap 3.5.2 and seo url by chemo. The problem I’am having is with the urls are now SEO friendly but the site map still shows the OSC path.. Ie SEO URL .. /sliding-sash-hardware-turbo-balances-c-22_38.html Dynamic site map path /index.php?cPath=22_38 This is causing problems with my submitted site maps in Google as its picking it up as lots of 301 redirects and therefore not spidering the map. If anyone can give me a pointer on how to solve this I would be very grateful. Mike Edited October 15, 2008 by No1Son Quote
SmartHome Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 (edited) Hi, the contribution is working perfectly with my shop. I just have got a problem with sorting the dynamic sitemap in an alphabetical order. At the moment all sites are listed, but by heading_title and date of first publishing. How do I have to change the code to make sure, that the listed sites are only sorted in an alphabetical order? Thank you for support. Greetings from Germany Edited October 20, 2008 by SmartHome Quote

arrowmodels Posted November 23, 2008 Posted November 23, 2008 Hi Can anyone advise me on this problem? I inadvertently "included" tell_a_friend.php in "catalog boxes" in site map maintenance. The button appeared on the shop's dynamic sitemap but no description along side it. When I tried to exclude it from the list in catalog boxes I found that the name does not appear but there is a blank entry. It is impossible to exclude this blank entry. Anyone got any ideas as to how to fix? Best Regards Peter Quote

lildog Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 oops....that is a custom box I have. The edit needs to be applies to:catalog/includes/boxes/information.php.
