Sitemap.xml

I have used an excellent free sitemap generator at
http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/
but I get a strange render in a browser.
What the hell is wrong with the top level????? I've checked
the script and everything seems to be OK.
When I view other sitemap.xml's, I can see all the URL's -
what am I missing?
Error message below...
The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using style sheet. Please correct the
error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.

What does "domain name is used for your typekit fonts & SEO sitemap.xml" mean?

Why is Muse now asking, on either uploading files via Muse or externally through another ftp, for a domain name that is used for your typekit fonts & SEO sitemap.xml?
I used Muse for exporting my files to ftp externally a few months back and I could add whatever I liked into the domain name field (which made sense as I could choose an appropriate name). I upgraded Muse this morning and now no domain name I add in here is accepted and on hovering over the info icon I get a "domain name is used for your typekit fonts & SEO sitemap.xml. What does that mean exactly?
If anyone can help?

Hi Guys
Great thread Omniscient! Like Bian, my username is just my name. It's a unisex name and caused a nice little debate in the early days of this forum as to whether I was male or female!
Kerry is from the Irish meaning 'dark-haired' but I am a blondie (natural blonde when younger, bottle blonde now I am older!) I think my mum just liked the name...
There are lots of interesting usernames out there - tell us about them and where they come from!
Cheers
Kerry

Up: Modification du fichier sitemap.xml (Adobe Muse)

Une fois que le fichier sitemap.xml est ouvert à partir de Dreamweaver (cs4) et que j'ai fait les modifications à ma convenance, comment dois-je faire pour que ces modifications soient prises en compte par Adobe Muse sachant que pour publier mon site (ou mises à jour du site) je passe par la fonction de base "Télécharger vers hôte FTP..." et non via Dreamweaver...
Merci!

Bonjour
Je viens de bien galérer pour résoudre un problème de ce type.
le fichier map pointait dans son contenu vers des pages obsolètes (avec des - au lieu des underscore_)
et pourtant le site marchait, mais google bloquait pour le référencement.
impossible de voir le bon fichier sitemap.xml s'afficher. J'ai vérifié en exportant le site maps qu'exporté il était bon,
mais que en rajoutant après l'adresse de mon site /sitemaps.xml, le sitemap téléchargé n'était pas bon.
j'ai donc fini par trouver comment téléchargé le bon sitemap, obtenu à partir de l'exportation html (pas du chargement)
en passant par ce menu charger les fichiers : attention bien téléchargé au premier niveau après le slash /
là, ça a bien écrasé l'ancien sitemap ! ouf !

Sitemap.xml 404 error

I recently had to change the domain name on my site. It was set up with google apps and webmaster tools, and everything was working great. The sitemap indexed my pages, and it was easy. I added a new domain name, and I have the old one forwarding to the new one. Everything seems to be working fine. The forwards work, and the page works great, but I keep getting a 404 page not found error when I try submitting the new sitemap.xml to google. WHAT IS THE DEAL? The support people on the chat thing can't seem to help me. They told me they would resubmit and it would work in 24 hours. It never worked. It's been like 6 days. I don't think anything is changing. Has anyone had this problem? Any way to work around it. If I can't get my sitemap submitted, I can't optimize my search results, and my page is useless to me. HELP!

Because the domain is not acting line a website, its just a forward. It is void of content, it has no content, it is just pointing to your new domain and that is what has the sitemap.
You already have this:
http://www.crabtreedermatology.com/sitemap.xml
And as you add content this updates every night.
Your also changing what say in nearly every post first you talk about old domain and your new domain sitemap is fine, then you saying the new one is not working when it is.
In terms of old information you have to give google time to understand you changed domain and wait for it to filter out the results. You can not just change a sites domain like you have an have instant results. It does not work like that.
You can set up webmaster tools for the new domain, add the sitemap.xml for the new domain (not the old one) and then allow google to crawl and then you can deny urls and control what google reads and knows from there.

Submitting adobe muse website sitemap.xml files to google?

Can anyone help me with submitting my site to google.
I realise adobe muse automatically creates a sitemap.xml file, however I am not sure how to submit this to Google?
Is there a way to upload the sitemap.xml file into the muse sites' root folder.
Thanks.

Thanks Parikshit
I have tried this but am still not sure how to fix it in muse? This is the message I get when I check the URL :

<urlset xmlns="http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap/0.84">
<url>
<loc>
http://musetemplateau.businesscatalyst.com/index.html
</loc>

Google not liking sitemap.xml formatting

Received this in Google WMT this morning for a few sites:
"An invalid date was found. Please fix the date or formatting before resubmitting".
Parent tag: url
Tag: lastmod
Value: 2013-11-20T04:05:11 +00:00
Has BC changed the formatting in the last couple of days? If so, please could they be changed back again?

Hi Liam,
Thanks for your help on that, much appreciated.
One of my sites, google has now accepted the sitemap without errors.
However, another of my sites google still reports errors on the sitemap.xml, regarding the invalid time and date.
any thoughts?

Sitemap.xml is not up-to-date

I was browsing in webmaster tools and I noticed that there was an alert that Google was experiencing crawl errors on my site. I noticed that the crawl errors were 404 page not found and that the pages were old pages that have expired or are disabled. Then I looked at the sitemap.xml and noticed that they are still in the feed. Is there a way to update the sitemap.xml so that it updates/regenerates? It looks to me that new pages are being added to the sitemap.xml file but expired and disabled pages are not being removed. Thanks!

Thanks Liam. I took a copy of sitemap.xml off the site and copied it to the root of the site via FTP. How long before I can delete the file so that the system regenerates? Or did I do this right at all?
Plus, since my site is always changing, I'm guessing that I have to do this periodically.

Add 'offsite' links to sitemap.xml

Sometimes an 'offsite' link isn't really 'off site'. For instance, if you incorporate a WordPress, or other, blog into your Muse created site with an offsite link to that blog. That blog link needs to be in your sitemap.xml. In fact, all of the blog's pages need to be in the sitemap. Currently, I have to manually add the offsite link to my blog's folder to the sitemap every time I re-publish from Muse, as it overwrites the previous sitemap.xml.

try calling dbms_xmlgen.setrowsettag(qryctx,'siteMap') ;
before retrieving the result with DBMS_XMLGEN.getxmltype (qryctx);

How can incorporate the phone pages to sitemap.xml / Adobe Muse

I created a web page with Adobe Muse with desk and phone plataform. The problem I have is that the phone plataform was not included in sitemap.xml
I need to know if I did something wrong or this could really happen as it is a new software.
Is there any way to contact you by phone ?
Anybody speeks spanih ?
The main problem is that Google does not read the phone plataform as the sitemap.xml does not make a difference between the desk and phone plataform as both have the same name in the .html code.
I am not supposed to change any information as the pages come as default.
my web page is: www.anazoe.cl
HELP !!!!!!

Url like <loc>http://www.anazoe.cl/phone/contaco-evento.html</loc> are added to your sitemap, http://www.anazoe.cl/sitemap.xml
We generate one sitemap for whole site which includes the information about phone and tablet , it should be fine with single sitemap because Google knows that desktop pages are canonical.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Comment modifier le fichier sitemap.xml dans Adobe Muse ?

Le fichier sitemap.xml produit par Muse à l'exportation du site au format HTML nous présente tous les liens avec la même priorité (0.5) et la même fréquence ("weekly")...
Quand-est ce qu'il sera possible de modifier ces données? Si c'est d'ores et déjà faisable comment fait-on?
Merci

Bon ça me rassure! mais il va falloir que je comprenne comment on fait ^^

Dynamic sitemap.xml

Hi All,
How can I create dynamic sitemap.xml file?
Is there built in functionality?
The Site Map functionality? suggests the way to create human readable sitemap,
but I need sitemap for search engines (like Google).
Thanks

There's no "built-in" functionality, but you can easily write one yourself based off the "built-in" sample code.
