Re: Sitemap gen apache log technique coupled with already existing sitemap : am i right ?

Hi,
OK, ignore my previous posting.
You already have your sitemap file, so I think you can
have the same path name in store_into as you have
in the sitemap node and hence iterate
(you had quite a clever idea).

I suppose when you create the sitemap initially,
you should run first time a config.xml file without the sitemap node,
and after you have created the sitemap file you add the sitemap node
in config.xml to iterate.
