2.0 RC1 ... archived articles NOT showing

[alforreca]

Hi,

After googling and searching here... found that people want to hide the archived articles.

That's not my case... I have around 9000 archived articles that are not showing up on the sitemap... it only shows published... do I need to activate something in the content plugin?

Also I have a question... I think it's great the idea of creating different sitemaps... works great in joomla 1.6... but I have the installed xmap 4 jomsocial plugin.

Is there a way to restrict a plugin to a sitemap...example.
backend plugin page:
I have content plugin ON and xmap 4 jomsocial ON
In the sitemap page:
I would like to have 1 sitemap just for the content plugin
And another sitemap just for the plugin xmap 4 jomsocial

Is this possible?
Thanks

Hi, I'm sorry I didn't get back to you earlier, I'm going to take a look at this and update Xmap with a fix soon.

Great thank...almost lost my hopes here


The fix will be for the archive articles not showing in sitemap?
or
Assign a plugin just to a sitemap?
or Both?

When is the released expected.... google SEO is killing me, have around 9000 links + missing from the sitemap.

Hi, the fix will be for the archived articles. For the extension, I think you can exclude the menu items that you don't want to get included in your sitemap manually. Something like this:

Create the sitemap.
- Visit the HTML version in the frontend while logged in as a super administrator user
- Uncheck any unwanted menu item (the parent only, that will auto-exclude the children)
- Visit your XML sitemap to see the results or logout an re visit your HTML sitemap

I think that will accomplish what you want to do. I'm planning a new feature on Xmap to allow custom extensions settings by sitemap and probably you will be able to disable or enable a extension independently for each sitemap, but that will take a little longer...

wow...that's going to be great

So when will we have the joomla 1.6 RC2 with the archives fixed?
The expected release date?

Well, there is not going to be a RC2, actually, I just released the version Xmap 2.0, maybe by the next weekend we will have a new release with some small fixes and some small new features.

Hello Guillermo,
