juntao Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Hi i uploaded these files to my site and submitted the urls to google, wanted to know what happens next when i submit the files? I thought the .xml files will be created? This is the contrib i'm talking about http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,3233 Please help the confused :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachael w. Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 I believe google retrieves the file itself. I use another xml sitemap contrib which set up a cron job to update the xml nightly and google retreives my updated sitemap on a daily basis. I dont do anything with it, I just let it sit.

The version 1.3 by Chemo is the one you should be using. The latter ones have various problems. Once it is installed, following the directions. It generates your initial sitemaps and gives you the code need to create a google account as well as the command needed to set up a cron job so that the files are continually updated.

Jack_mcs Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 The google sitemap isn't meant for viewing by your customers. To have one of those, you should install the Dynamic Sitemap contribution. jack Support Links: For Hire: Contact me for anything you need help with for your shop: upgrading, hosting, repairs, code written, etc. All of My Addons Get the latest versions of my addons Recommended SEO Addons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
