hi,
thanks for this simple and efficient plugin.
I have a feature request. I am maintaining a bilingual web site (french and english).
Thus I have 2 different sitemap pages.
Instead of using 2 different plugins (one for each language), I would appreciate to able to use only one plugin with 2 different shortcodes.
I assume it represents a lot of work but I am sure it would be highly appreciated among the WP community.
2010-01-24 @ 8:17 e m
Another feature request :-)
I assume that the sort order depends on the page ID.
Would it be possible to sort the static pages with the order pages appear in ?
2010-01-25 @ 10:07 f m
Danke. Funktioniert prima.
2010-01-25 @ 3:19 e m
Thanks for making this plugin
2010-01-31 @ 2:56 e m
Thanks for using it!
2010-01-25 @ 3:29 e m
Hi,
Possible bug… Seems like the newest post is not included in the list.
Nemrod.
2010-01-31 @ 2:56 e m
I can’t recreate the problem.
2010-01-25 @ 10:59 e m
Nice work.
Could you enhance it with:
- nested pages
- hiding of children of excluded pages
Keep it up!
2010-01-31 @ 2:54 e m
Both requests are quite hard to code but I’ll keep them in mind. Thanks!

Hi,
I am using WP 2.9.1 and the plugin failed activation with the following fatal error :
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or ‘}’ in /wp-content/plugins/wp-sitemap/wp-sitemap.php on line 18
2010-01-31 @ 1:49 e m
It turns out it was due to the fact that PHP4 was running, rather than PHP5. When I switched, it initiated fine.
2010-01-31 @ 2:53 e m
Yes. I forgot to add that WP Sitemap requires PHP5. Thanks for your report.
2010-02-10 @ 9:10 e m
Is it possible to add it to just the footer.php so it’s on every page? If so what code do I use?
Or does it have to be inserted into every page?
Thanks
2010-02-10 @ 9:33 e m
Pls ignore the post above, I’m an idiot. Worked it out.
Thanks.
2010-02-17 @ 9:57 f m
Hi Jens, thank for sharing it. I tried it and seems very nice, simple but functional.
I suggest and would happy to see in next releases the possibility to have an include/exlclude notation for tags and categories.
I don’t know how much difficult could be, anyway thanks again ;)
2010-02-21 @ 4:25 e m
Another suggestion, if I can, is to have the possibility to disable the sort, so that the article specified in the include=”…” will appear in the same order as written there…
Bye ;)

I use your plugin on one of my pages (http://sfcd.eu/blog/inhalt) and noticed, that it shows an EDIT button for the last post displayed when I’m logged in and it shows a comment field for the last post displayed too if I allow comments for this post (which I therefore disabled).
Maybe it’s just a bug in my theme (dkret)? I don’t know – do you?
2010-03-09 @ 5:01 e m
Okay, I managed it to remove the edit function and the comment field in my page.php without destroying my blog and everything is fine! :-)
2010-03-10 @ 11:23 f m
Great!
2010-03-10 @ 7:18 f m
the plugin is showing issues in the syntax when trying to activate.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or ‘}’ in /homepages/5/d303230798/htdocs/searchamania/wp-content/plugins/wp-sitemap/wp-sitemap.php on line 18
Do you what the fix is? Besides upgrade to php 5?
2010-03-10 @ 11:22 f m
PHP4 is not yet supported, might be in the future.
2010-03-10 @ 10:06 f m
Hi, is there any setting to change to get more than 50 post on the site map?
Or get a page breake?
2010-03-10 @ 11:22 f m
[wp_sitemap post_count="100"]
2010-03-11 @ 7:37 e m
Ok quite obvious when I read and understand what I’m reading.
The pagination don’t work for me, is it because I have WP 2.92?
2010-03-13 @ 7:52 f m
I have checked some more, and it seams that the pagination option is mixed with the next gen gallery paging. I can get pagings if I have a value lower than 30, but it only opens a gallery.
So Your plugin works for me as well if I deactivate next gen gallery, but I don’t want to do that. As is it works but it only shows the posts I put in in the option post_count and it’s good enough for me at the moment.
Thank’s for the plugin.

Hello! great plugin. I have a problem, i use this plugin but can`t close the comments at the sitemap page. I think the plugin is the problem.
2010-03-23 @ 8:47 e m
I tried the plugin, it seems pretty cool and easy enough to implement. Thanks for the instructions, it seem to work very well with the default configuration, so i saw no need to change it. having said that, as soon as i start including and excluding pages or post, then it start going funny again.
2010-05-12 @ 8:04 e m
GREAT plugin, I use it on a few sites and it’s simple and works. I did just try to install it on one of our sites but received a fatal error, something I haven’t received before. I uploaded the plugin, and when I tried to activate it, the message reads:
+++++++++++++++++
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or ‘}’ in /nfs/c02/h09/mnt/27147/domains/tetonspringslodge.com/html/adventures/wp-content/plugins/wp-sitemap/wp-sitemap.php on line 18

Any clue on what’s happening?
Thanks again, kind regards.

Idaho Falls, you need to upgrade to php5

Hello there,
For some reason, as soon as I add the include parameter, I get no results even if I know for a fact that the category I’m specifying does indeed have posts associated with it.
Is this a known issue with a workaround?
Thanks!
Doron
