Extension Description: Creates an xml sitemap for a phpBB forum. This allow web indexing engines (Google, Bing etc.) to crawl your forum more efficiently and find new posts more quickly, as they only need to check timestamps in the sitemap rather than crawling multiple pages of the site. The links to forum topic pages are canonical (no unnecessary parameters).
The sitemap is accessed at
[YOUR_FORUM_ROOT]/app.php/sitemap.xml
or (if mod_rewite is enabled} at [YOUR_FORUM_ROOT]/sitemap.xml
This is a fork of the abandoned XML sitemap extension viewtopic.php?t=2344456. The extension now has a different author and the structure of the generated file is completely different to the abandoned extension so I am treating it as a new extension.
