X-Cart forums

Here's a simple script to generate a quick sitemap and url list from your x-cart install. This script only does the basic categories and products. I made this one because I was sick of all the other sitemap generators indexing thousands of pages for 50 products. Hope this helps someone.

PHP Code:

<?php

    # MySQL Info
    $mysql_host = 'localhost';    # MySQL Host Name
    $mysql_user = 'username';    # MySQL Username
    $mysql_pass = 'password';    # MySQL Password
    $mysql_db   = 'database_name';    # MySQL Database

    # The Full URL to Your Webstore - INCLUDING THE TRAILING SLASH
    $base_url = 'http://www.hockeyshare.com/webstore/';
    
    #
    # THE REST SHOULD BE FINE - ONLY MODIFY IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING
    #
    mysql_connect($mysql_host,$mysql_user,$mysql_pass);
    mysql_select_db($mysql_db);
    
    
    $gs = '';
    $txt = '';
    $sql = "SELECT productid FROM xcart_products WHERE forsale = 'Y'";
    $result = mysql_query($sql);
    
    while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
        $txt .= $base_url.'product.php?productid='.$row['productid']."\n";
        $gs .= '
<url>
  <loc>'.$base_url.'product.php?productid='.$row['productid'].'</loc>
  <priority>0.5</priority>
  <lastmod>2007-10-04T09:34:31+00:00</lastmod>
  <changefreq>weekly</changefreq>
</url>';
    }
    
    
    $sql = "SELECT categoryid FROM xcart_categories WHERE avail = 'Y'";
    $result = mysql_query($sql);
    while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
        $txt .= $base_url.'home.php?cat='.$row['categoryid']."\n";
        $gs .= '
<url>
  <loc>'.$base_url.'home.php?cat='.$row['categoryid'].'</loc>
  <priority>0.5</priority>
  <lastmod>2007-10-04T09:34:31+00:00</lastmod>
  <changefreq>weekly</changefreq>
</url>';
    }

Well if you make a php file with the above code and load it into your root of your x-cart and then call the php script it will give you a URL list and a Sitemap URL Entries for your site.

All you need to do is fill in your site information in the php code:

# MySQL Info
$mysql_host = 'localhost'; # MySQL Host Name
$mysql_user = 'username'; # MySQL Username
$mysql_pass = 'password'; # MySQL Password
$mysql_db = 'database_name'; # MySQL Database

# The Full URL to Your Webstore - INCLUDING THE TRAILING SLASH
$base_url = 'http://www.shishapipe.net/shopcart/';

Once you have done this and then saved the php file, say call it site_map.php and then run this on your site.

You can see an example at http://www.shishapipe.net/shopcart/site_map.php

And if to do so?

PHP Code:

    $base_url = 'http://www.hockeyshare.com/webstore/';
    
    #

    #
    
    
    $gs = '';
    $txt = '';
    $sql = "SELECT productid FROM xcart_products WHERE forsale = 'Y'";
    $result = mysql_query($sql);
    
    while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
        $txt .= $base_url.'product.php?productid='.$row['productid']."\n";
        $gs .= '
<url>
  <loc>'.$base_url.'product.php?productid='.$row['productid'].'</loc>
  <priority>0.5</priority>
  <lastmod>2007-10-04T09:34:31+00:00</lastmod>
  <changefreq>weekly</changefreq>
</url>';
    }
    
    
    $sql = "SELECT categoryid FROM xcart_categories WHERE avail = 'Y'";
    $result = mysql_query($sql);
    while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
        $txt .= $base_url.'home.php?cat='.$row['categoryid']."\n";
        $gs .= '
<url>

Shisha,
That link to your site_map.php is dead. Error 404.
