jmd_sitemap: Sitemap generator
Download 0.1.2. Requires 4.0.6 and PHP 5.
Features
- Follows most of the sitemaps.org protocol (priority and changefreq elements are omitted)
- Excludable sections
- Manual sitemap creation by clicking “Update” in the extensions tab
- Sitemap automatically generated upon article creation and modification
Notes
- I didn’t implement the priority and changefreq elements because they don’t seem useful.
- You must create and chmod 666
sitemap.xml.gzin your web root (i.e., alongside images/ and index.php). - Validate your sitemap with Google Webmaster Tools – the gzip’ed sitemap will return errors for most sitemap validators, unless you gunzip it and validate the XML file.
Todo (next version)
- Integrate netcarver’s MLP version
- Exclude sticky articles
- Exclude articles, but include sections
Todo (maybe/someday)
- gbp_permanent_links compatibility
Changelog
- 2008-05-18: 0.1: Initial release
- 2008-05-18: 0.1.1: Corrected XML declaration
- 2008-06-07: 0.1.2: Fixed a future articles bug

What’s the difference between yours and sencer’s implementation?

Re: jmd_sitemap: Sitemap generator
I get an error from Google Sitemaps with this plugin :-(
Sencer’s one was working
Unsupported file format

Re: jmd_sitemap: Sitemap generator
Maybe this can help
About Sitemap errors and warnings
XML Sitemap Format
Only thing I could spot int the header was the header order. I changed this and i’m waiting to see if it has an effect….
<?xml encoding="utf-8" version="1.0"?>
To this…
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Re: jmd_sitemap: Sitemap generator
^ Changing the header as above fixed the sitemap.
Google is fussy.

Re: jmd_sitemap: Sitemap generator
No, Google merely follows W3C specifications for XML
[23] XMLDecl ::= '<?xml' VersionInfo EncodingDecl? SDDecl? S? '?>'
The encoding value is case insensitive, so it could be either UTF-8 or utf-8.

Re: jmd_sitemap: Sitemap generator
Whoops! I fixed the attribute order for 0.1.1 – thanks Ruud.

Mainly excludable sections (without editing source code). My plugin doesn’t manually ping Google either – it’s no longer needed after you add your sitemap via robots.txt or Google webmaster tools.

I am having PHP-Version: 4.4.8 in my shared hosting environment :-(
Would it be possible to get a PHP4 version or simply run the old version (as I do)?

Re: jmd_sitemap: Sitemap generator
It is possible, but it isn’t worth the effort. Did your host miss gophp5?
If you do want to backport it to PHP 4, you’ll need to add an ISO 8601 function to replace date('c'), and you’ll need to remove every private and public keyword, basically making OOP worthless.
But really, make your host upgrade. A number of shared hosts have two versions of PHP running – you just “turn on” PHP 5 with a line in a .htaccess file.
