How to increase Number of URLs in sitemap.xml file?

[ankitpr89]

@julian @psychobunny hope to see some important update on this.
As this is quite important for drawing traffic from search engines.

@hek my temporary work around is to generate sitemap manually and put on server at different url address; then submit it to search engines.
This can be done manually.

Used this to generate sitemap: http://www.web-site-map.com/xml_sitemap.php

Good workaround @ankitpr89. We'll try to change up the sitemap, let me issue it now

gh#2254

julianlam created this issue in NodeBB/NodeBB

closed Sitemap refactoring #2254

@julian Thank you so much Julian!

Hi guys, sorry to bump such an old thread but couldn't find anything more relevant.

Has there been any change in the way NodeBB generates sitemaps since back when this was originally posted? We are not seeing a full list of URLs in our sitemap either (using Lavender theme if it makes any difference) and a lot of should-be-popular threads aren't being indexed as a result.

Thanks!

@julian @psychobunny Did this get fixed? Does the current sitemap file work with Web master tools etc?

@julian @psychobunny hey guys, any updates on this? We have been looking for something similar too!

[julian]

Yes, the current sitemap should list all publicly available topics/categories.

hey @julian thanks for your quick reply. I checked the sitemap for our forum, but it shown only the categories & topics headers. Is this how it's meant to be shown or am I missing something?

@Vamsi-Krishna what you see there are links to other sitemap files. They are essentially imported when the main sitemap is parsed by Google et al.
