   I've got a home page that's at the root of my domain, while the rest of my blog is under a subdirectory ("/blog") due to a legacy setup issue with shared hosting eons ago. So i've got "/blog" 301 redirecting to the home page:

   http://technabob.com
   http://technabob.com/blog <- wordpress thinks this is home

   Is there any way to set the home page in the XML sitemap to the home page without the "/blog"? I've manually added it, but then the update time stamp doesn't occur automatically, and there's duplicate listings for the same page in the sitemap.xml - which I'm sure is bad for SEO.

   Any ideas?

   At Settings/General in your admin panel, make sure that you have:

   WordPress address (URL): http://technabob.com/blog

   Blog address (URL): http://technabob.com

   You shouldn't need a redirect if you have that as your setup.
