Hi All,

I had this working in a previous version, however since I have upgraded, it doesnt work anymore. You can check out my site at http://www.backgroundguy.com/sitemap.xml. I tried adding content as recently as an hour ago, and it still is not updating. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the module, changing permissions, etc. Please let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Jay

Content is indexed and the files created/recreated on cron. Did you make sure you had some content types set to enabled in the sitemap via admin/settings/xmlsitemap? Did you have the 'minimum sitemap lifetime' set to something other than 'No minimum'?

I see a couple content entries from today on your sitemap so I assume it's working for you now?

No response, so assuming we can mark this as fixed.

Sorry for the late reply. Part of it is working. I have changed the settings to No Minimum, change frequency is Daily, inclusion is Included. I have also run the cron jobs manually. It has updated to show the newest links, however the modification date doesn't change, and the change frequency is set to weekly, or yearly (when I have it set to daily).

There's no interface to changing the changefreq for anything except for the frontpage link, which is currently 'daily' in your sitemap. As far as your nodes not updated their last modification dates, the module only sees a 'change' when a new node revision is created or someone creates a comment. So reviewing the nodes on your sitemap, they all appear to have the correct information.

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the quick reply. So the date wont change even when I upload new pictures to an album? What would be labeled as a node revision? If you check out the dates on this page it doesn't reflect the times within the sitemap. http://backgroundguy.com/photos/image. You can see in that page that I uploaded pics 2 separate times, and the corresponding modification date is still blank.

Also is there any way I can change the frequency from yearly to daily, or even weekly?

Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it.

What module is making the http://backgroundguy.com/photos/image page? The only types of things XML sitemap can determine information like lastmod and changefreq about are individual nodes.

I figured out how to change the frequency on the pages that already display it, but I still cannot seem to get the pages that dont show a time to start displaying that.

It's part of the album photos module

http://drupal.org/project/photos

I found that the user ones which do not display the date next to the users is because each individual user needs to include xml since by default they are excluded. So there are only those few links left to figure out the behavior of.

Thanks again for your help
