mechbunny and sitemaps
 

Is there anyone with mechbunny who has setup a proper sitemap ?
I have a sitemap submitted (a few hundred K pages submitted) with only a few k actually indexed.

http://www.yourdomain.com/sitemap.php should be the right page however when you submit this to webmaster tools it is considered as the sitemap index

This means http://www.yourdomain.com/sitemap.php =

http://www.yourdomain.com/sitemapVid...s.php?offset=0
http://www.yourdomain.com/sitemapVid....php?offset=40
http://www.yourdomain.com/sitemapVid....php?offset=80
http://www.yourdomain.com/sitemapVid...php?offset=120
http://www.yourdomain.com/sitemapVid...php?offset=160
http://www.yourdomain.com/sitemapVid...php?offset=200
http://www.yourdomain.com/sitemapVid...php?offset=240
http://www.yourdomain.com/sitemapVid...php?offset=280
http://www.yourdomain.com/sitemapVid...php?offset=320

etc etc etc

There is a 50,000 URLs and no larger then 10MB rule.
Anyone knows if mechbunny sitemap structure exceeds these max numbers ?

Bump to assist

There was a short period of time where we sent out a zip containing a messed up sitemap.php that I forgot to set back after some testing. It was actually fixed in one of the updates. Open up that file, and inside you'll see

$i = $i + 40;

change it to

$i = $i + 40000;

As for why you only have a few thousand indexed - the formatting is all correct, it just takes a couple weeks or more for google to actually index it all. If there is any error in the sitemap xml webmaster tools throws an error.

That being said, it's usually easier to catch us on our support ticket system...

Thank you very much.
I seem to have the old version. (can't update because of modifications)

What do you suggest on adding to webmaster tools

sitemap.php only or sitemapMiscPages.php, sitemapStaticPages.php and sitemapVideoPages.php seperately ?

only sitemap.php, it's a sitemap index that points to the remaining ones.

Fyi, the last sitemap.php update was with 4.2.4 and the file contains $i = $i + 40; not $i = $i + 40000;

Secondly, by using sitemap.php it only points out to /sitemapMiscPages.php and /sitemapVideoPages.php?offset=0 with about 13.000 pages submitted while i'm pretty sure this should be over 100k.

These other pages (http://www.yourdomain.com/sitemapVid....php?offset=40 etc) are added automaticly later on, or ?
