Thanks, Dudel. I wrote this one almost 4 years ago, and I guess it's still useful. Which validates my controversial opinion about "dormant" blogs.

"atom.xml?redirect=false"

DOI! *smacks self in the head* This is why I read your blog. XD

I'm over here thinking "Why can't I link to the old xml, exactly?" *smacks self in the head again*

Thanks for the assistance.

Blackswan,

Please post a question in BHF: Something Is Broken, so we can explore this further. If you already have an open thread, bump the thread, so I can see it.

Your site is fantastic! But I don't understand why my blog suddenly has 26 urls failed:

1) "This XML tag has an invalid value. Please fix it and resubmit" &

2) One of the 26 urls: "This url http://luxuryhaven.blogspot.com/2009/09/contest-win-inglourious-basterds.html is not allowed for a Sitemap at this location".

Somebody pls help as I'm not savvy in these stuff. Appreciate any expertise!

Hi,

I'm feeling completely dim because i can't follow even the first step on this post - I've searched over my dashboard page but I can't find the link for 'sitemaps'...I've looked over the page 3 times! Can you tell me where it is?

2009-07-06T09:20:45.530-07:00

Thanks for the help, using the redirect worked. So why isn't this posted on GoogleSites somewhere? In Help, all they say is for to use the default at the end of the line? Thanks again.

Hey Chuck!!! You're the greatest!!!
I'm beginner blogger, a bloginner, and I was going crazy looking for that xml whatever, can't find it.

2008-10-23T15:00:00.000-07:00

Chuck, I'm learning tons from you. I figured out how to add google webmaster tools and I added a site map. What I don't understand is the updating, step 15 and the ping thing.

I don't know what step 15 is? Every time I add a new post, do I have to do something besides just hit publish?
