for example a section of this is like:
<urlset> <loc>http://www.bee-unlimited.co.uk/modules/content/?id=1</loc>

Shouldn't it has to be:
<urlset><url><loc>http://www.bee-unlimited.co.uk/modules/content/?id=1</loc>

Fantastic article wishcraft.

I have installed sitemap 1.30b on my site and tested it to see where it falls short based on all the points you have made. The XML file it generates seems to work properly but only includes the required tags. Optional tags such as 'lastmod', 'changefreq' and 'priority' are only created for the site's home directory.

The only real shortcoming is the lack of help information provided for users that may not fully understand software design and implementation. For example, there is only a short blurb in the download section about placing the xml_google.php file in your root directory and then register it with google. But I could not find any of this information provided within the software package.

I have been making some of my own hacks to the module mainly in an attempt to make it more user-friendly.

For Yahoo its called urllist.txt and it has an another format than the Google one. But i think a Google Sitemap is more important than a Yahoo one.

whatever, the most important thing of Sitemap is like already wishcraft said: Creating the Content dynamic on the Fly, e.g. News-Postings, Forums-Post etc.

A perfect working Sitemap (here Plugin for wordpress) whith the ability to to ping Google automaticly, exclude Pages (e.g. Contact, Privacy Police, etc.) and much more Settings can be found here (maybe usefull for Developer).

Re: backend.php is good but what about a sitemap.php?

Believe it or not, I have been making some code changes for the sitemap, the same sitemap exists for all browsers as it is standardised by sitemap.org.

Normally you add a sitemap to yahoo with their siteexplorer.yahoo.com or somewhere like that with yahoo, the same tools exist for live at webmaster.live.com or the google tools.

The content module is the main module for display content in XOOPS history it was the earlier modules developed.

Now if you check xoops_version.php of the latest X-Center (Content module revamped for 2.3).. There are a couple of addition for snooping of this information from modules into the backend and the file sitemap..

If you want other filename for them you can do this with .htaccess file just pointing at the php files.

If you want to see and example of snooping check out the RSS Snoop in the re-aggregator.. This is as a sitemap is maximum of 10Mb's and the backend will at least retort for the modules to all have an rss base for the backend for the entire site..
