G-Mapper allows you to edit your sitemap contents manually through the main
screen.
Once you have created a sitemap and indexed
your files you should see all the contents of your sitemap listed on the
main screen.
Files and folders
Files and folders are fixed and cannot be edited as they are discovered during
the idexing process.
To exclude a file from your sitemap tick the Exclude tick box.
Modified date
The Modified Date is automatically obtained from the files themselves
however you can edit this manually by clinking into the field and editing the
date.
If you would like to overide the automatic date tick the Manual Date box
so the Modified Date field will then retain it's current value even
when reindexed.
Note that if you change the value but do not tick the tick box the value will
be over written next time you reindex.
Frequency
Google sitempas allow you to suggest to Google how often your files change.
A default value can be set in the configuration
wizard.
To change the update frequency for this file select an option from the drop
down list.
Remember this is only a suggestion and Google will not necessarily visit the
file daily just because you specify the file updates daily.
Priority
You can tell Google how important various files are within your site relative
to others. A default value can be set in the configuration
wizard.
To change the priority for this file select an option from the drop down list
1 being the highest and 0 being the lowest priority.
Title, description & author
G-Mapper will try to automatically populate the Title
and Description fields from the files meta data however you can edit
this manually by clinking into the field and editing the value.
If you would like to overide the automatic values tick the Manual
Meta box so the Title and Description field will then
retain it's current value even when reindexed.
Note that if you change the value but do not tick the tick box the value will
be over written next time you reindex.
What's next
