GG Sitemap Generator Plug-in problem

ECoughlin · 11-04-2009, 10:19 AM

Hi,

I'm using Market Theme (WP) and I uploaded the Google XML Sitemap Generator plug-in version 3.7.1. I've used earlier versions on some of my other blogs and it works fine but not on this one.

In the default settings, it had the box checked for "generate a robots.txt file" which I know stops Google from crawling the site. I've been trying to resubmit the site without that box being checked but it won't regenerate another sitemap and I keep getting a big red X from Google.

The site is verified, by the way. I've tried contacting the author of the plug-in but no word yet from him on this.

Do I need to write a new post before submitting the sitemap again?

Please help! I hope this post is in the right place.

Thanks,

Which version of WordPress are you using? Some people are having compatibility issues when running Google XML Sitemap with 3.1.7 with WordPress 2.8.5

Well, that sucks b/c that's what I'm using, version 2.8.5. Is it ok to use an earlier version of GG sitemap generator?

Thanks,

Sure, that would be fine. Use the earlier version until they get the issues sorted out.
