only one page generated
« on: June 01, 2006, 09:45:35 AM »
I recently moved the my site [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ] using one cms to another.
The first site was at the root of the domain and then put the new site in a subdirectory.
I used a redirect 301 (in the .htaccess file) to the new subdirectory.
ie [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ] goes to [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ]

when I try to generate a sitemap, I only get the first page and none of the other urls.

Does the redirect messup the generating of a realistic sitemap?

Should I just move  the site to the root directory?

Hello,

I noticed that all your internal links point to "[ External links are visible to logged in users only ]..." (i.e., without www. part). That's why you should set initial URL without www as well.

Thanks, that is an interesting point.   I suppose I should really have the links set to [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ].

I am still confused about what to submit to google, ie a sitemap for [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ] or [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ]   

and where to put the sitemap.

Thanks again.

Hello,

yes, it's a good idea to correct all your links to contain "www." in URLs.
And I suggest you to put sitemap.xml at the site's root and submit [ External links are visible to logged in users only ]
