SUNScholar/Repository Website Metrics/Sitemaps

First, edit the DSpace config file and setup sitemaps as follows.

#### Sitemap settings #####
# the directory where the generated sitemaps are stored
sitemap.dir = /home/dspace/sitemap

#
# Comma-separated list of search engine URLs to 'ping' when a new Sitemap has
# been created.  Include everything except the Sitemap URL itself (which will
# be URL-encoded and appended to form the actual URL 'pinged').
#
#sitemap.engineurls = http://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/ping?sitemap=

# Add this to the above parameter if you have an application ID with Yahoo
# (Replace REPLACE_ME with your application ID)
# http://search.yahooapis.com/SiteExplorerService/V1/updateNotification?appid=REPLACE_ME&url=
#
# No known Sitemap 'ping' URL for MSN/Live search

Once you've enabled your sitemaps, they will be accessible at the following URLs:

• HTML Sitemaps: [dspace.url]/htmlmap
• Google (XML) Sitemaps: [dspace.url]/sitemap

For example you can view SUNScholar maps by clicking on the links below.
