Hi
My sitemap has been created as at https://www.example.com/sitemap-4seo.xml but is no longer being submitted to search engines
Short break for holiday season
The holiday season is with us and we'll be off from December 25, 2025 and back on January 5nd, 2026.
Don't forget to look up the documentation, including the videos, your answer may already be there! Likewise, be sure to check the Development versions area, in case your problem may already have been solved.
In case of emergency (ie your site is down with a fatal error directly linked to one of our extensions), please contact us by email (see contact icon at the bottom of all pages of this site).
All the best to your and your family! See you around in 2026!

Hi
And what do you mean by "no longer"? was this filled up before?
If so, this would suggest a temporary connectivity issue. I would suggest:
- Use the "Rebuild Now" button so that 4SEO rebuild the files
- Visit your sitemap on the frontend to be sure it's fine

Hi
Could you please provide us with superadmin credentials to your website. You can create a temporary account, and delete it afterward, but it must have superuser level.

Hi
Have not seen anything weird in the configuration. Pinging sitemaps can be blocked by the server security rules, althought that's pretty rare. I can suggest the following:
1 - Half of the pages analyzed are for your com_gpstools pages. These do not appear to have any SEO value and I'd definitely suggest to exclude them from the analysis.
2 - You have an "jomres_asa_module" that is giving a PHP fatal error on many pages, that's pretty bad and needs to be fixed or the module unpublished until fixed:
3 - Once the above is done, I would like to Reset the analys while running in debug mode so that more details are recorded about the search engines submission process, why it fails or if it fails at all (it might be simply that the submission time is not recorded).
In any case, Google does pick up your sitemap anyway as it is listed in your robots.txt file as expected, so there's no rush here but still I'd like to understand what's going on.
Best regards
