I am on a older version of phpld and I don't think the sitemap generator that comes with that version has ever worked, or perhaps it worked when it was first installed a few years back, but I can't remember now. Anyway the sitemap generator that is in phpld does not work anymore.

Generating a sitemap is a very time consuming thing for me, at the moment I am using Gsite crawler and it takes hours. I have been spidering the site for 5 hours now and Gsite crawler says that it has another 13 hours to go :eek:

Does phpld version 3 have any form of automatic sitemap generator?

I have a phpbb forum that is quite large and for that I use http://www.phpbb-seo.com/en/gym-sitemaps-rss/google-yahoo-msn-sitemaps-rss-t2734.html which is superb as it automatically does everything for me!

Is there such a thing for phpld?

Thanks

If you have a phpLD license, you could always upgrade to v3.4. If that's not an option for you, someone at phpLD could take a look at your installation.

A third option is phpSitemapNG (http://enarion.net/google/phpsitemapng/). It resides on your server and is a standalone app. The only reason I suggest it is because I've been using it for years. Even has a cron you can run automatically (through your hosts control panel).

I'm sure there are other options, but I only have used the above.
