Webmedic's Mod Rewrite and Sitemap Generator

I'm currently using webmedic's mod rewrite for my phpBB.

I've tried implementing the sitemap generator available from this phpBB, but, the topic urls are not in the correct format.

Is there any way of modifying the sitemap generator to work with webmedic's mod rewrite?

Cheers,

Brad

hello, which mod are you talking about, mx Google sitemaps or The previous sitemap Generator mod ?

In the first case you just need to upload the webmedic mod rewrite file located in the contrib/ folder of the release, if not, I suggest you check mx Google sitemap mod Wink

As well take a look at the phpBB SEO mod Rewrite, and to this thread where linus just achieved the required steps to migrate.

I tried to implement the mx Google sitemap mod, but it' not displaying the correct URLs. Obviously, the mx Google sitemap mod was not designed to work with webmedic's mod rewrite.

But, is there any way of modifying the mx Google sitemap mod so it works with webmedic's mod rewrite?

Alternatively, is anyone aware of a Google sitemap mod created by webmedic's that works with his mod rewrite?

Thanks!

Well look at the contrib/moded_4_mod_rewrites/Other_mod_Rewrites/webmedic_standard/ Wink

Webmedic mod rewrite is on of the few supported mod rewrites Wink

Just upload sitemap_kb.php to mx_ggsitemaps/includes/ and overwrite Wink

Then, have you checked the demo board ?

How do you like the pagination URLs Wink

I've uploaded Webmedic's 'sitemap_forum.php'. But when I run sitemap.php I get the following error:

Oh sorry, this must be because you are not using the 2.31 version.

Since webmedic was unreachable for long, I updates the code and moved the make_url_friendly() function from header.php to function.php so that you can use it in every mod you want.

The previous webmedic's method was to repeat the code in every mod outputing URLs such as the adapted version of the sitemap generator he had set up.

So, you can either upgrade to the 2.31 version or move the the make_url_friendly() function from header.php to function.php.

Perfect

you can submit.

The mx Sitemaps module is as well a great addition, but unfortunately, the rewritten links won't work well with this version with other than phpBB SEO mod rewrites.

I'll set up a quick patch for that in 0.0.2, but it's already ready for webmedic.
