So, in our website we are using SiteMap. For each request we render some menu and to do that we do SiteMap.RootNode in the helper function. Now, when I have done the profiling of my website using dotTrace, I saw the get_RootNode() is taking lot's of time(around 70-75 millisecond). But we know that the SiteMap is static. So, I am thinki...

Folks I am trying to build a sitemap (we need one badly) for a huge multi-page web app. Technically its not much more than a collection of php/MySQL web forms that use javascript instead of traditional linkage to access the many pages. <td width="100" align="center" ONMOUSEOVER="this.className='bgover'" ONMOUSEOUT="this.className='bgou...

I'm using my own SiteMapProvider which is just inherited and little bit rewritten System.Web.XmlSiteMapProvider. I want to return different siteMapNode for clients and for managers. Or maybe the same but with different Title property. Is it possible? If yes, how can I do that? ...

The automatic sitemap for my Django site fluctuates between including the www on urls and leaving it out (I'm aiming to have it in all the time). This has ramifications in google not indexing my pages properly so I'm trying to narrow down what would be causing this issue. I have set PREPEND_WWW = True and my site record in the sites fra...
In my web.config I have configured a SiteMapProvider with securityTrimmingEnabled="true" and on my main master page is an asp:Menu control bound to an asp:SiteMapDataSource. In addition I have configured restricted access to all pages in a subfolder "Admin" (using another web.config in this subfolder). If I put a sitemapNode in Web.site...

Hi, I'm having real trouble understanding the specification and guidelines on how to properly escape and encode a URL for submission in a sitemap. In the sitemap.org (entity escaping) examples, they have an example URL: http://www.example.com/ümlat.php&q=name Which when UTF-8 encoded ends up as (according to them): http://www.e...
I have a site with a huge number (well, thousands or tens of thousands) of dynamic URLs, plus a few static URLs. In theory, due to some cunning SEO linkage on the homepage, it should be possible for any spider to crawl the site and discover all the dynamic urls via a spider-friendly search. Given this, do I really need to worry about e...
Hello everyone, I have some doubts regarding sitemap.xml generation and Django's sitemap framework particularly. Let's say I have a blog application which has post_detail pages with each post's content and a bunch of 'helper' pages like 'view by tag', 'view by author', etc. Is it mandatory to include each and every page in sitemap....
Currently I am trying to figure out how I can add dynamic query string parameters to my sitemap navigation menu. For example, the user chooses the source and edition he wants to work with. I have a simple sitemap that creates navigational links but the parameters the user chose need to be passed in the query string. The default map loo...
I am writing a function to dynamically generate my sitemap and sitemap index. According to the docs on sitemap.org, the file should be encoded in UTF-8. My function for writing the file is a rather simplistic one, something along the lines of: function generateFile() { $xml = create_xml(); $fp = @fopen('sitemap', 'w'); fwrite($f...
I am writing a set of functions to generate a sitemap for a website. Lets assume that the website is a blog. The definition of a sitemap is that it lists the pages that are available in a website. For a dynamic website, those pages change quite regularly. Using the example of a blog, the 'pages' will be the blog posts (I'm guessing), s...
