Hi Gael, Thanks for the reply.
Yes, I tried to configure the routes.py file but I couldn't change the URL. I just thought you might know how to do it, so I thought I'd ask. Actually, I have an other post running regarding the URL issue but it's not resolved yet. For example, if I want to have a robot.txt, I can't place that in the static folder because Google will look for it at http://www.mydomain.com/robot.txt so for that one I will have to figure out the URL issue. But for the sitemap.txt, you're right, I can place the sitemap in the static folder and link it in webmaster tools. I will do that. Thanks again. <http://www.mydomain.com/sitemap.txt> On Monday, December 14, 2015 at 4:51:15 PM UTC+8, Gael Princivalle wrote: > Hi Joe. > > I think you can resolve it by a pattern-based system routes.py > configuration. > > Personally I use a simple parameter-based system routes.py configuration > and I think it's difficult with it to obtain an URL like > http://www.mydomain.com/sitemap.txt . > So I put sitemaps.txt in a static folder static/sitemaps/sitemap.txt and > in Google webmaster (search console) I link the sitemap like that: > http://www.mydomain.com/static/sitemaps/sitemap.txt . > > If you find a solution for having http://www.mydomain.com/sitemap.txt please > share! > > Il giorno lunedì 14 dicembre 2015 00:28:45 UTC+1, Joe ha scritto: >> >> Hi Gael, >> >> That's great!
