The component is a NEW release (now at v2.1 BETA) and now has some extremely useful admin functionality (hard work by Daz and Mic) that allows the user to create a Google sitemap and show/hide the menu items.
Change Log:
The PHP shortcode issue.
Component Usage:
To make this component function, simply install the supplied ZIP file using the Joomla admin area. After successful installation, create a menu link to the component, selecting the default view. Remember to "enable" each menu you wish to display on the frontend.
Google sitemap generation is presently achieved by creating a menu link as above, but now to the "Google" specific link item. Now you will need to click on the frontend menu link as this is required to make the "sitemap.xml" file in the root of the Joomla directory (directory and file permissions dependant). If required you can now remove the link (or simply unpublish it) from the menu.
Future updates include automatic sitemap updating, advanced settings for display options.
Please keep this page bookmarked for future updates.
Does exactly what it says, fast and simply!
It's great and it's going to be even better when, hopefully, there will be an option of which menus to display or which sections and categories.
Use it but watch what is being revealed.

This component does what it says like it says, which is wonderful for my needs.
Pros:
* if you need a starting point on how to develop your own component, the simplicity of this thing makes it easy to follow
* excellent for a beginner web builder like myself
* good way to produce a site document reference (cut and paste screen to word for example)
Cons:
* need to be aware that it shows everything even those registered and special things even though the front-end is not logged in. Provided you have enabled proper security elsewhere that's fine.
* may not want to let your users see it, until you massage it some. (I like to hide my warts and stuff.)
