Could somebody suggest a GOOD Wordpress XML sitemap generator?
-
We have been putzing around with Google XML Sitemaps Generator (a plug-in on Wordpress) for our Wordpress blog and we cannot get it to write an XML sitemap!
Could somebody suggest a viable alternative that actually works? Thank you for your help!

Thank you all for your help and answers! Barry, we re-created the Sitemap via FTP and it easily took it! Also, we noticed that Chrome will not display the actual XML Sitemap...so we checked it in IE....works perfectly. Again, thank you all for your help!

I'm in agreement with Stefano that I've been using it for years and never had any problems that weren't my fault/settings.
Is the problem that it simply can't write to your server? I've had that before. Create the sitemap.xml and sitemap.xml.gz files manually via ftp, then play around with the permissions until the plugin can write to the files.
If you can tell us exactly what the issue is we might be able to get it working

Do I have to create a separate sitemap for my multilingual site?
Hi, I was wondering how should I implement a sitemap for my multilingual site. Currently we have two languanges separated by subdirectories in our site /en (english) and /fr (french) however based on the the articles that I have read there are no clear explanation on the implementation of the sitemap with different languanges. Here are the cases I think is possible for the implementation: Case 1: One sitemap with all the en and fr pages together with hreflang attribution for each pages Case 2: One sitemap with only en pages with hreflang attribution for both languages (en and fr) Case 3: Separate sitemap for en and fr pages with hreflang attribution for both languanges and connect both through sitemapindex creation. If any of my proposed cases are not possible please let me know the best approach in creating a multilingual sitemap for my site. Appreciate your thoughts regarding this. Thank you!

Having Problems to Index all URLs on Sitemap
Hi all again ! Thanks in advance ! My client's site is having problems to index all its pages. I even bought the full extension of XML Sitemaps and the number of urls increased, but we still have problems to index all of them. What are the reasons? The robots.txt is open for all robots, we only prohibit users and spiders to enter our Intranet. I've read that duplicate content and 404's can be the reason. Anything else?

Sitemaps
Hi, I have doubt using sitemaps My web page is a news we page and we have thousands of articles in every section. For example we have an area that is called technology We have articles since 1999!! So the question is how can Make googl robot index them? Months ago when you enter the section technology we used to have a paginator without limits, but we notice that this query consume a lot of CPU per user every time was clicked. So we decide to limit to 10 pages with 1 records. Now it works great BUT I can see in google webmaster tools that our index decreased dramatically The answer is very easy, the bot doesn't have a way to get older technoly news articles because we limit he query to 150 records total Well, the Questin is how can I fix this? Options: 1) leave the query without limits 2) create a new button " all tech news" with a different query without a limit but paginated with (for example) 200 records each page 3) Create a sitemap that contain all the tech articles Any idea? Really thanks.

No Sub-Categories in XML Sitemap
I have a couple of sites using 3dcart, the ecommerce platform. Their tech support recently told me that they do not list sub-categories in the XML sitemap, only products and top-tier categories. Am I the only one that sees a problem with this? Thanks
