DESCRIPTION

| 7 |
-----------
|
| 8 |
The XML Sitemap module creates an XML site map at ?q=sitemap.xml that
|
| 9 |
conforms to the sitemaps.org specification. It provides many options for
|
| 10 |
customizing the data reported in the site map.

KNOWN ISSUES
|
| 17 |
------------
|
| 18 |
Users who have not enabled clean URLs have reported receiving an
|
| 19 |
"Unsupported file format" error from Google. The solution is to replace
|
| 20 |
"?q=sitemap.xml" at the end of the submission URL with
|
| 21 |
"index.php?q=sitemap.xml". Submission URLs for each search engine can be
|
| 22 |
configured at Administer -> Site configuration -> XML Sitemap.
