i didn't mean it was necessarily straight forward... it took me a bit of doing as i remember, but there was a pretty detailed thread out there that got me across the finish line. I was just saying that the plugin was not defective or outdated. My sitemap link is below for reference.

hbf - I understand the plugin works for some/most people.

What I meant was that even after following the detailed instructions in the various threads I still couldn't get it to work, and that seems to be the experience of some other people as well.

@whu606 have you tried my steps? i got it working with my steps. hope it works with you now, it's working like a charm :)

From my experience, the most problematic feature with Vanilla has been less developers who could solve this issue in the simplest manner. I have tried a lot,,,, over several times but could not get the sitemap working.

I would request the Plugin developer to make several versions of the plugin.

I am planning to open up another forum and I love Vanilla, but this particular feature is keeping turning me off.

And to those of us who has been bragging about how easy it is, can you guys create a video tutorial an upload it on YouTube. It will surely go viral ;)

Thanks, Chiprang

@Chiprang , there's a new version working. and it's working great on the latest vanilla version. give it a try :)

Howdy, Stranger!
