Well, there is actually no .xml physical file. that's why we are using mid rewrite a bit hence the .htaccess.
Then the location depends on where is you sitemap.php file (same for rss.php and rss feeds) :
In this forum, sitemap.php is in the boards/ folder :
Your .htaccess looks ok, if your rewritten forum URLs works, the GYM on should as well.
Try to load yourdomain.com/sitemap.php, should be your sitemapindex.
You'll need to activate mod rewrite in the GYM acp as well as styling if you want them to look like ours. |

And i uninstall gym sitemap.xml this is work.
May be i have a problem with this GYM sitemap.xml installation, i do this task:
| Quote: |
Installation :
* Upload the mx_ggsitemaps/ folder content from the archive to your online mx_ggsitemaps/ folder.
* Add the following rewriterule after the GYM sitemaps one in your .htaccess :
Code:
# SITEMAP SITE TXT
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)-gx\.(xml(\.gz)?)$ /sitemap.php?xml=$1 [L]
Or :
Code:
# SITEMAP SITE TXT
RewriteRule ^phpbb/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)-gx\.(xml(\.gz)?)$ /phpbb/sitemap.php?xml=$1 [L]
If, for example, your forum is installed in the phpbb/ folder.
|
but i'm not sure with this:
| Quote: |
XML lists :
* XML list must be valid Google sitemaps and be uploaded in the mg_ggsitemaps/txt_lists/ folder.
* You must name each in the following manner :
url_site_map-name.xml
The above example will auto-generate a new entry in the sitemaIndex :
/site_map-name-gx.xml (or /sitemap.php?xml=site_map-name without URL rewriting), obviously linked to the corresponding sitemap listing.
* You can add as many as you want, each xml file, following this simple standard, will add an entry in the sitemapIndex and create a new sitemap.
* You can use several method to to build your txt lists, such as the many online sitemaps services.
Warning:
URLs listed in url_list.txt must be part of the same domain (or sub-domain) as the SitemapsIndex (sitemap.php) and shall not be located above in the folder structure.
If sitemap.php is located in :www.example.com/dossier/sitemap.php
You can add :
-http://www.example.com/dossier/*.*
But you can't add :
-http://www.example.com/*.*
Or :
-http://sous-domaine.example.com/*.*
|
May be i like an idiot, i never study about php, and i'm newbie in this forum phpbb, and my english is not too good either, can you explain what i have to do with this ?, i must manually build the second task or i just copy paste all of directory of gym sitemap.xml folder only ?. |

It's most likely because you did not clear the cache after updating your sitemap settings, and once it was updated they eventually showed up.
About your first question, are you asking if you should regenerate sitemaps and feeds ?
Actually no, sitemaps are dynamically generated, new content will show up by itself as soon as the cache gets updated (configurable in ACP).
All you need to do with Google is to submit your sitemapindex and voilà
