You don't really have any control over the order the links are generated in. The software more or less works like a search engine and maps your website. Sometimes it may not be in the same order as your navigation.

I just ran a scan on your website using the latest beta, and it seems to look correctly to me. Is this more in line with what you wanted?

I also looked closer at the pages that you think are duplicating. They really are not, you just have the same name associated with multiple pages:

Both of these have the title of About Us.

Thanks Scott,

Oh My! That is the trouble with copy/paste, sometimes you forget to tweak the pasted text to make it relevant to the page you've pasted it on. :/

I've fixed the About-Us titles on the pages. It now displays as I would expect. HOWEVER, Sitemapper is still missing two links: Mid-South Mission Center (http://www.midsouthmc.org/) and World Church Headquarters Website (http://www.cofchrist.org/).

Ideas??

The other two links are on a different domain name James, so it will not list those. Only links on the cofchristknoxville.org domain will be included in the sitemap.

P.S. I swear I have seen you in a TV commercial! :)

You said: "P.S. I swear I have seen you in a TV commercial!" So you have. :cool:

As for the "other two links," well they should be listed. I thought a sitemap was suposed to listed ALL the links of a given site/domain??? If not what good is the site map?

Ideas??

"What's in..." oh never mind :rolleyes:

A sitemap can only list links that are on its own domain. That is why those 2 links are not included in your map.

Sure, you can manually tweak anything once the files are exported. Just note that the next time you generate the sitemap, those changes will be lost.

Anything change on your local computer, internet connection or hosting provider since the last time it worked?

Nothing has changed. All I did was to tweak the page titles as I mentioned above. :rolleyes: Weird.
