Installed without a hitch on my Joomla 1.5.14 site. I chose to link to the HTML format of the site map from a link in my website's footer. I chose to turn off the menu names in the site map display, excluded one page from the site map, and turned off developer credit link, thanks for those options.
Thanks to the other reviewers for explaining how to find the options/preferences menu that contains links to the site map URL's. I was pretty lost until I read those notes.

Simply outstanding and a Must have Component for all joomla based sites.
Its like a one touch magic button, once installed it creates everything in a flash of second, all you have to do is copy the xml link generated in the preference section and paste it on google.com/webmaster tools for your site to be indexed by google quickly.

I've installed this on several of our sites. Absolutely no problems. The author even gives you the option to remove his credits. Very generous.
I wish all joomla extensions were this outstanding!
Some people have trouble figuring out how to link to the sitemap and / or set preferences. It's very easy. Create a menu item linking to the component!
To get the url for the sitemap link to submit to Google, just go into the componenet and click on Options /Preferences. How easy is that?
Thanks again for a great component!
