GTSitemap

[Princeton]

A new an improved version can be found here: 108583

The GTSITEMAP Addon creates a site map for your web site. A great addition for sites that offer more than just a "forum".

A site map is a visual organized model of a Web site's content.

A site map gives users an overview of the site's sections in a single glance. In many ways, a site map is similar to a book's table of contents, in which each listed item links directly to its own section.

Tip
The site map interface should be familiar with your users. A successful site map is a simple hierarchical view of sections in a list format.
If a user has to 'work' (click here, click there) to review a whole site map the benefits of using the site map will be lost - show everything on one page.
A site map "should be no more than two-and-a-half times the window size most common among your users". - Jakob Nielsen
A "Site Map" link should be clearly visible at the top and at the bottom of page.How You Can Give Back

Is there any way to bring the 'Site Options' menu to the top?

How can I add another box on the left like the 'Site Options'?

Are there any options in the ACP?

Mastar,
change PHRASE TYPE of $vbphrase[gtp_sitemap] to GLOBAL.

I have updated the files.

You can change the look by modifying the template: gtpglobal_sitemap.

The additional options are for PHONE / TOLL-FREE PHONE found under VB OPTIONS / CONTACT DETAILS.

Hey princeton,
I prefer this hack compared to your Custom Pages Hack...
(Reason sitemap.php is much better as a unique file/URL)

I have a question:
Why does Site Options appear centrall on sitemap.php as found here:
http://forums.techarena.in/sitemap.php

Also need to add additionaly links to Site Options Menu, (example rss2 feeds from forums)

/me clicks install ;)

Regards,

[Princeton]

no problem; I understand :)
with mod-rewrite the other product could look like /view/section/sitemap OR /view_section_sitemap.html

Regarding your problem:
add

Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.

to the table cell

[SaN-DeeP]

ah thanks for same, and congrats being new moderator on vb.org :)

[bigdaddyforums]

[Allan]

Any way to top-align the right side, so that the site options and contact info lines up with the actual map?

Edit: Nevermind, saw you hinting at it above.

For everyone else, edit the gtpglobal_sitemap template. Look for:



Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.

What's up with this putting an ad in my AdminCP with some crazy "asdfasdf" URL?

http://www.sevenstring.org/chris/admincpspam.jpg

[Princeton]

it's called an affiliate link ...

UPDATE: affililate link has been removed

[yoyoyoyo]

any chance of having this updated to 3.6.8?

[baghdad4ever]

is it work on 3.6.8???

[memoriess]

hi,

how can add the link at the bottom of the navbar? im using 3.6.8, it does not appear below.. pls help thanks

but the script is working fine..

[Buckey]

Is there anyway to set it so you can expand the catagories or collapse? This would save on the scrolling down, especially if you have a large forum :)

Thanks again for such an awesome hack!

[dtv100]

any one try this with 3.7 ?
