The sitemap generated isn't in XML format, so I'm not sure why it's called that, except perhaps to relate to Google's naming.
The generated output is just a list of site links. For my site, they all started as "index.php/xxxx", so I had to add my site URL in the setup, as recommended.
Also, the output does not have CRLF codes. In fact, it appears as if each link is just separated by a single space. At least, that's how it looks when I copy/paste the output into a notepad browser.
I'd like to see each line ended with CRLF (for Windows), or perhaps just LF (for Linux), or an option.
An option to actually generate XML (for data manipulation) might be nice, but if Google accepts as is, then it's not important to me.
Lastly, visiting the author's web site and viewing their site map, they don't appear to use this component. Perhaps they are using a wordpress installation, etc. But, this also wasn't important to me.
Hi tabletguy,
The sitemap is in XML format. If it isn't showing up that way on your site, then I can certainly take a look at it for you. That's the whole purpose of it, so if you don't see JUST the XML when you view it, then it isn't set up properly.
The module position HAS to be "dynamicxmls" otherwise the template won't be able to pull it up and the template is where the XML tags start. If you don't use the template to pull up the module, then it won't generate the proper XML format and Google won't accept it.
This isn't a sitemap to list on your site. It's an XML sitemap that you submit to Google for indexing. I am not using a wordpress installation. I am using Joomla!...and this module...you can see it when you click on "Demo" above.
If you send me an email at the above address I can help you fix any problems you are having.
Thanks for the review!
