# dynamically generate sitemap

 * I had the ‘Dynamically Generate Sitemap’ box checked along with notify Google
   and Bing. Both Bing and Google webmaster tools said no sitemap was submitted.
   Should I remove the ‘dynamically generate’ option to generate a static map? (
   If so, do I submit all the map versions that I find in my root that have the 
   sitemap prefix?) And, if I create and submit a static file, should I revert to
   the dynamic option after submitting?
 * Any information that will help me understand this will be greatly appreciated!

 * Hi mium,
 * You still have to manually submit your sitemap to both Bing Webmaster Tools and
   Google Webmaster Tools if you want them to appear in Bing Webmaster Tools and
   Google Webmaster Tools. Leave your settings in All in One SEO Pack as they are,
   they are fine, just log into both Bing Webmaster Tools and Google Webmaster Tools
   and manually submit your XML sitemap to them.

 * Thanks for your response.
 * Should I submit any and all sitemaps found in the root directory?

 * Hi mium,
 * If you’re using All in One SEO Pack then you should only have one sitemap which
   should be sitemap.xml. What’s the URL of your site?

 * First let me thank you for your interest and help!
 * The site is [http://www.itsaccomplished.com](http://itsaccomplished.com/)
 * I just looked at Webmaster tools again and see that I get a different answer 
   depending on whether I use www or not:
 * itsaccomplished.com – no sitemap
    [http://www.its.accomplished](http://www.its.accomplished)–
   error (We encountered an error while trying to access your Sitemap. Please ensure
   your Sitemap follows our guidelines and can be accessed at the location you provided
   and then resubmit. General HTTP error: 404 not found HTTP Error: 404)
 * If I go to the dashboard/All in One SEO/XML Sitemap and click on ‘View Your Sitemap’
   I get this:
 * XML Sitemap
    This sitemap contains 5 URLs [http://itsaccomplished.com/sitemap_addl.xml.gz](http://itsaccomplished.com/sitemap_addl.xml.gz)
   [http://itsaccomplished.com/sitemap_page.xml.gz](http://itsaccomplished.com/sitemap_page.xml.gz)
   [http://itsaccomplished.com/sitemap_attachment.xml.gz](http://itsaccomplished.com/sitemap_attachment.xml.gz)

   [http://itsaccomplished.com/sitemap_ml-slider.xml.gz](http://itsaccomplished.com/sitemap_ml-slider.xml.gz)
 * When I view my files in cPanel, I cannot find any sitemap at all so I guess at
   some point I must have messed something up.

 * Hi mium,
 * You need to disable the Sitemap Indexes option, you don’t need it – [http://semperplugins.com/documentation/xml-sitemaps-module/#enablesitemapindexes](http://semperplugins.com/documentation/xml-sitemaps-module/#enablesitemapindexes)
