Let’s invest 5 minutes in a solution for #Joomla and Mambo…
- Go to https://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps and create a google account if you do not have one already.
- Download the file Google Sitemap for Mambo at http://mambo.medspan.info/downloads/17.mambo
- I personaly have renamed the file using a UUID, in order to harden security (the file do not do something special but anyway) I prefer not to have the same filename as million of people jsut in case of 😉
- Upload this file to the root directory of #Joomla/Mambo
- Verify by giving in a browser the location of file, you receive an XML file (if not something is wrong)
- add the URL in the panel of Google sitemap
