    xml sitemap

    Hi

    I have problem with may forum seo - when i use phpbb3 - i have many visits form google. i Change on vb 5 - and now visits are very low,
    do you have any sugestions,

    I look for site map "
    Sitemap File Path
    XML sitemap data must be written to the filesystem to function. Enter the full path to the directory the files should be written to. Do not include a trailing slash.

    This directory must be writable by the webserver.
    In the box below there is messege : You did not enter a valid value for this setting.

    Could be any other risons why google do not link with may forum so much as it did with phpbb3 ?

    Why do you think your hits from google have gone down?

      Create a directory called /store_sitemap in your /core directory and chmod it to 777. Then in AdminCP > Settings > Options > XML Sitemap > Sitemap File Path, enter "./store_sitemap" Now Save your options. Do you still get the same error?

          The link in your license is not working (please update this urgently) so I cannot give you precise instructions.

          However it needs to be in /core/ not /forum/

          /core/store_sitemap

                    The sitemap file path should be:

                    ./store_sitemap

                            Hi stay there also somthing like that in admin cp

                            "XML sitemap data must be written to the filesystem to function. Enter the full path to the directory the files should be written to. Do not include a trailing slash.

                            This directory must be writable by the webserver."

                            and in the dir store_sitemap - there is one file index.html - should not be xml ?
