How to create site map in Dreamweaver CC

Hi
I have just built my first website and need to create a site map, any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I use this online service to crawl up to 500 site pages.
Create your Google Sitemap Online - XML Sitemaps Generator
Also generates an XML site map for Search Engine robots and an HTML map for human site visitors. I then use my Google Webmaster account (also free) to submit the XML site map's URL to Google.
Also look at Xenu Link Sleuth software. It checks for broken site links and creates an HTML site map.
Find broken links on your site with Xenu's Link Sleuth (TM)

Can you create a site map with Dreamweaver?

Greetings,
Can you create a site map with Dreamweaver?
Crawkers do not work because many of my pages are not linked.
Thanks

I'm not too sure what Crawkers is, but I do not think DW has that capability out of the box. There are some web based solutions that will scan you site for you and give you a map for search engines. I choose to go with a commercial option which is pretty good from WebAssist, it's called Surveyor: http://www.webassist.com/dreamweaver-extensions/surveyor/ .

Making a auto updating site map, index, RSS...problems

I am new to web page design and need some help. I am using DW CS4 on MAC OS X 10.4.11 and placing the page onto a remote simple host by my ISP (Telus in Alberta, Canada). I have a very basic web page and can start again if needed. My goal is to use Lightroom to publish a few photo galleries to my webspace ( no problem there Lightroom dose it all)
The problem is I would like to post multiple photo galleries from Lightroom into a directory on the webspace but have an index page or site map that will have a link to each gallery. I am trying to find a way to make the index automatically read the directory and update itself so that I can just upload the galleries from lightroom and not have to manually change the index page to include the new gallery in the directory tree.
I am just looking for some suggestions on how to accomplish this task.
I have a RSS feed already but I am hoping to have the feed or some page automatically recognise when a new gallery has been uploaded to the webspace. I want to have it so that I upload and then it auto changes the index or some links page or site map and an RSS feed gets updated so I do not have to tell each family member everytime that I change the available photo galleries.
I just need some suggestions or direction to go so that I can learn this.
Thanks Adam

Hi
If you are going to use lightroom to create your galleries, then I would recommend taking a look at 'slideshow pro' and the 'slideshow pro director' for publishing /managing your images/galleries.

Site Map providers xml's throght out all web applications.

Hi all,
How to
site map providers to all web applications. each and every site map provider should apply to each web application.
ex: we can apply single site map provider(for top navigation) to one web application. but If we take 5 site map providers, how to apply these site map providers to 5 web applications through code.
If any doubts, please let me know.
Please help me on this.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to customize a top navigation and apply it to all web application.

Submitting site maps for multiple sites to Google

I sort of glommed on to the end of the thread "meta and google-ing...i give up," but I'll start a fresh post here with this:
I have three sites in iWeb, all of which have their own registered Go Daddy domain names and are forwarded to .mac without masking. I followed James Tseng's instructions and successfully submitted to Google and verified my "www.mac.com/user/iWeb" url.
I also successfully uploaded a site map for one of my sites (let's just call it Site 1), which is in my iWeb folder (not the Site 1 folder).
My question: I assume I can create separate site maps for Sites 2 and 3. Do they also go in the same iWeb folder as the first one? Is that possible if they're all named "sitemap.xml" or do they have to be given different names?
Also... if I want to submit these three sites to other engines like MSN and Yahoo, can I submit the forwarded domain names, or will these engines not follow the forwarding to my .mac url?
If that's the case, is it best to submit the single "www.mac.com/user/iWeb url" as I did with Google, or should I submit each site's .mac url separately?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Mitch

<As posted in the the other thread...>
Hi Mitch....
I hope you've been finding all this helpful so far! It's always fun to see just how much feedback you can get from Google. Sort of gives you a feeling that "you've arrived". haha.
Regarding your question about sitemaps and multiple sites.... My strategy is this... I like to give Google sort of the broadest catch that I can. That's why I really suggest to people that they register the most general URL... http://web.mac.com/username/iWeb/ . You see how that really leaves the door open for the possibility of multiple sites, without having to register multiple sites. Google really doesn't care that you call them separate sites...to Google they appear as part of the same site...with the same base verified URL.
So with that registered URL, there really is only one place where the verification file and sitemap.xml file can go. And that place is in the iDisk/Web/Sites/iWeb/ folder. And there is really only a need for a single verification file and a single sitemap.xml file, no matter how many sites you have. The point here isn't telling Google that you have more sites...it's just about telling Google that you have more LINKS in the site that it already knows about.
So how do you do this? Just spider your new site or gather the links in your own way and then copy and paste the links (just the links section...not the first two lines or the last line of the code) into the sitemap.xml file that you have already submitted before. Then resubmit it to Google.
Does this make sense? Let me know what you think.

How to not show pages in the Site Map

This is probably the easiest question of them all... but...
How do you not show pages in the site map?
It seems that by default, all pages are added to the sitemap.
Is it a case of unchecking "enabled" and checking "exclude from search results" under "More Options" on the page itself?
Or another way?

Hi David,
The "exclude from search result" will remove from the sitemap.xml "yoursite.com/sitemap.xml" and from major search engines from being picked up. If you tick this option please allow for a few hours to have the xml to reflect the changes.
"If you select this option then this web page will be excluded from the site search feature built into this system as well as from the sitemap.xml file submitted to the major search engines such as Google, Yahoo and Live."
The sitemap module found under site settings is not related to the xml file so you'll need to manually remove and insert onto your page if using this feature.

Hope this clarifies.

Site map cannot be build

Dear Great Knowers,
Everytime I make a new site, it shows a warning:
The selected folder does not contain the current site's home page. The site map annot be built.
The folder I choose is the main folder holding all of the site, including the index.html file.
Any ideas why getting this message?
Thanks so much for taking the time to read this message. Really appreciate.
Sincerely,
Hope

Happy help.
It does seem odd that DW needs this prodding sometimes.
It would be great if you could mark this Correctly Answered so the folks who help will not need to keep clicking on this thread. Thanks!

Site map version 0,84

This is a version of a site map protocol in BC:
urlset xmlns="http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap/0.84
this is a version of site map from google
Google adheres to Sitemap Protocol 0.9 as defined by sitemaps.org. Sitemaps created for Google using Sitemap Protocol 0.9 are therefore compatible with other search engines that adopt the standards of sitemaps.org.
the question is : why BC is not making use of the protocol 0.9 ?
thanks

Uhm, this is the Map itself right not the map application? Have you tried checking Ovi Suite Map Downloader?

Searching for a page in the site map

Hi all! I'm using an older version of Dreamweaver... MX. I'm
hoping there's a way to do a search for a specific page using the
site map. I have some out-dated pages on a HUGE website I'm trying
to clean up for a local organization. I did a search for orphans,
and they were not listed. Therefore I know they are somehow still
linked to other pages. So I can't just delete them. I need to
update the links. I did this on my local drive, but I need to do it
on the server, as I realized I can't replace all pages on the
server (others have access to it too). Does that make sense?
Anyway, let me know if I can search using the site map for specific
pages. Thanks!
Julie

Do a sitewide find for the filenames. That'll tell you which
other pages
link to them.

Why did Adobe remove the Site Map Tool in CS4?

Is there a better, faster way to wireframe? I could wireframe a prototype 20 page website for testing in about 5 minutes using this tool. I doubt there is a faster way but there is probably a better way. What are some of the best practices on wireframing. Obviously, I am out-of-date if Adobe drops my main tool for wireframing.

The original announcement that the Site Map was going to be dropped was made in August 2007, and had this to say:
there are many features in the application that require significant
resources to maintain release to release, but aren't being used with
significant frequency.
That's obviously not much comfort to you, and I'm sorry that I don't have an answer regarding an alternative wireframing tool. However, if you have need for a particular feature in Dreamweaver, it's always a good idea to submit a formal request through the feature request/bug report form at http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform. "Bring back Site Map" is likely to fall on deaf ears, but "provide a simple wireframing tool for site development", with an explanation of how you envisage it working and the benefits it would offer other users, could bring a completely different response.
Good luck in your search for an alternative wireframing tool. If you find one, post the details back here for the benefit of others in a similar position to yourself.

Preventing page from showing up in Site Map

Is there no way to prevent a page from showing up in the site map? Even if I disable a page it still shows up in the site map.

Hey Brad,
You need to wait till the end of the day for the sitemap to update. If it existed before and in the sitemap.xml when off it will not render.
You can now also go into the sitemap.xml manually via FTP and change things. I think if you do that it stops auto updating though so if you want that to kick in, deleting it and then it will be auto generated again by the system.
Site map in the admin is for the page list you insert and doing child/parent stuff for breadcrumbs.
That make sense?

DW (CS4) does not have a site map view?

Does DW CS4 have an option to view Map in the files panel? It
is shown in CS3 but cannot locate it CS4. I want to print a site
map...
thanks

No. It's one of the features that was removed from CS4. Adobe
announced
the decision to remove it in August 2007:

Google and site maps

Hi All,
I have had a bit of advice on google already, however I thought that I would open this up to the wider forum as I have checked through other posts and cannot seem to get an answer that will work for me.
I am needing to add a site map as I believe that this will help google 'trawl' my website and I also need to get my site verified on google, however I am having problems uploading the html code via cyber duck or file zilla to my website.
In advance I will say that I am not very technically minded and it has taken several months to get my site up and running to how it is at the moment, however I am proud of what I have achieved through working stuff out and learning the techniques on this site. I will not purchase any program that I do not need to and I thank you all so very much in advance for your time and patience.
In relation to SEO, is it worth me spending the money on someone else doing this with me not being so technically minded?
Website is here: www.blackstar-events.co.uk (I appreciate all feedback, both positive and constructive)
Kind Regards,
Laura

This is the URL of your Home page....
http://www.blackstar-events.co.uk/Blackstar-Events/Blackstar_Events.html
From this it looks like you have uploaded a folder called Blackstar-Events to to your server. This probably sits inside a folder called "public_html" or something like that which is why you have the extra - /Blackstar-Events - in the URL.
If you upload the Google verification file and the sitemap.xml to the root public folder, the path will be....
http://www.blackstar-events.co.uk/google.html and http://www.blackstar-events.co.uk/sitemap.xml
If the Google verification file and the sitemap.xml have been uploaded to the Blackstar-Events folder which contains all the rest of your website files, the path is....
http://www.blackstar-events.co.uk/Blackstar-Events/google.html and
http://www.blackstar-events.co.uk/Blackstar-Events/sitemap.xml
If you uploaded the Google verification file, try entering both variations of the URL into the browser...
http://www.blackstar-events.co.uk/google.html
http://www.blackstar-events.co.uk/Blackstar-Events/google.html
.... to see which is successful. Obviously, you have to substitute your google file name for "google.html".
