How to rename the sitemap created by "google sitemap" module automatically ?

[abhiz.2007]

Hello

 

I would like to rename or generate a site map named "sitemap.xml" via "google sitemap" module

Presently it generated the site map named as "http://abhishekproducts.in/1_en_0_sitemap.xml" i would like to replace that with "http://abhishekproducts.in/sitemap.xml"

 

reason -

for SEO optimization, as generally the crawlers look for file at domain.com/sitemap.xml. having a custom name forces me to manually configure the same at the webmaster tools of search engine services repeatedly.

 

My store link - Abhishek Products

As far as I can tell, if you visit the link http://abhishekproducts.in/sitemap.xml, this automatically redirects to http://abhishekproducts.in/1_index_sitemap.xml, which contains all possible language sitemaps generated for your store (at the moment though, it only references an English sitemap, but if in the future you add more languages it should contain the corresponding sitemap files as well).

 

I don't think you have to do anything, as is. Have you tried submitting the http://abhishekproducts.in/sitemap.xml sitemap URL in GWT? It didn't work as expected?

thanks.

 

i wrote a rewrite rule in htaccess file. so sitemap.xml routes to www.abhishekproducts.in/1_index_sitemap.xml . that solved the problem.

 

also i was able to submit /sitemap.xml to web master and it was successfull.

Oh, so the redirection was due to your efforts, not by Prestashop defaults. I see.

 

Anyway, it's nice you solved it by yourself, kudos!
