Has anyone got/seen a tutorial/reference/tips/how-to’s/anything for the best way to setup robots.txt and a sitemap for buddypress components. I’ve literally searched all day with no success in finding anything. I’ve tried the bp sitemap generator but haven’t had luck getting it work work, the files get generated but I get a error invalid feed template and google won’t accept it. So if anyone could pass a little good energy this way…i’d be appreciate it.

How to setup sitemap generator for BP and Any other suggestions on what to put in the robots.txt would be cool….thanks

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/google-sitemap-generator/ works with buddypress. You can add your buddypress forums etc in the settings page

@aces

I tested out that plugin, I couldn’t see any options to add in my forums and stuff to the XML file in the settings page, does this still work?

[@aces Participant 13 years ago]

Yes with Google XML Sitemaps plugin v 3.2.6 on Wp 3.2.1 and Bp 1.5.1

The third panel down in the centre column ‘Additional Pages’ > Add new page

@aces That way you would have to add each page 1 at a time, is there a way to do it automatically. (My Forum’s have thousands of pages so adding them individually is pretty much impossible.)

I don’t know of a better solution, hopefully someone else can suggest something…
