      We have been putzing around with Google XML Sitemaps Generator (a plug-in on Wordpress) for our Wordpress blog and we cannot get it to write an XML sitemap!

      Could somebody suggest a viable alternative that actually works?  Thank you for your help!

          That is so strange. I have been using that plugin for years with great results.

          What errors are you recieving? Are you trying to add it to some external tool?

          Yeast is a great all-in one seo plugin.

              I'm in agreement with Stefano that I've been using it for years and never had any problems that weren't my fault/settings.

              Is the problem that it simply can't write to your server? I've had that before. Create the sitemap.xml and sitemap.xml.gz files manually via ftp, then play around with the permissions until the plugin can write to the files.

              If you can tell us exactly what the issue is we might be able to get it working 🙂

                Thank you all for your help and answers!  Barry, we re-created the Sitemap via FTP and it easily took it!  Also, we noticed that Chrome will not display the actual XML Sitemap...so we checked it in IE....works perfectly.  Again, thank you all for your help!
