This is a dynamic sitemap module with template that creates an XML list (in the Google sitemap format) of all content on your site with options to show or hide categories & sections and restricted content. Allows for manually entered links so you can include pages that are not generated by the module. For example: links from installed components are not included yet in the sitemap, but you can include these links by editing the module parameters; just separate all URLs with a space and they will be added to the sitemap. Updates: 11/2/09 – Corrected empty loc tag that was printing at the bottom of the sitemap & creating a 404 error in google. It appeared only if you didn’t enter any manual URLs. Installation: 1. Unzip the mod_dynamic_xmlsitemap(UNZIP).zip file 2. Install the two files (one is a module, one is a template) – mod_dynamic_xmlsitemap.zip & dynamicxmlsitemap.zip 3. “Publish” the module Dynamic XML Sitemap and adjust the parameters if needed. Choose if you want categories & sections and restricted content on your sitemap. The default is “Show”. 4. Change the module position to “dynamicxmls” (VERY IMPORTANT!) 5. Enter the location of Joomla! if needed (e.g. http://www.yoursite.com). View your sitemap if you are unsure. If your links start with “/index.php?…” then you need to enter the location of Joomla! 7. View the sitemap by going to “http://www.yoursite.com/?template=dynamicxmlsitemap” (this is also the URL you will submit to google for indexing).
