1.basic functions for building/generating xml sitemaps to sitemaps.org/google standards, i.e location,priority,freq server response timestamping. writes sitemaps using sitemap index protocol.
2.a tracking image/code is placed in the footer.php, every time the image is loaded (via user visits/bots etc) it executes the script and begins to index links on that page to a set limit or depth, i.e 100 links or depth 2 per execution of script(set by admin). this makes sitemap indexing progressive and reduces server load.
3.existing links are stored inside a mysql database, new links are added when found and checked against database for dups.
4.(set by admin), the script will periodically check for URL status, if 404 URL removed from database and xml sitemaps updated.
5. if script is currently in execution, either multiple instances(threads) of script could be an option or queue pages for indexing that were activated. also will gather URL's from server log for index queue.
6.ping google when new sitemaps are available automatically.
7.autoupdated/overwrites existing sitemap in root directory if sitemap currently exists.
8.emails admin when sitemap is updated, (set by admin) overwrites sitemaps if new URL's exceeds a set limit, for example every 5000 new URL's.
9.(set by admin) number of URL's per sitemap max 45'000
now i know a 2 services online that charge a fortune for this kinda service and the scripts are not publically available, so who's up for it to set up a project to make a GPL open source version? so us not so rich can get this kinda advanced sitemapping.
p.s has anyone managed to get xml-sitemap.com's paid script to work?
(set by admin) number of URL's per sitemap max 45'000
Fifty thousand is the standard. Why would you do less?
emails admin when sitemap is updated,
That'd be obnoxious. Better to email the admin only when something goes wrong.

Paid? ROFL!
