OK so I have had the unlimited version installed on my site ( [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ] ) and so far have been unsuccesful in creating a sitemap. My hosts 123-reg don't allow me to run a php for long and say they cant change it. So I am having to log on to the generator every 10 mins or so and click the "Run In Background" and "Resume Last Session" boxes in crawling tab. Now what I am asking is, I use [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ] for other cron jobs that I run, would there be an option to run the generator with these options automatically ticked? My site apparently has around 10000 pages and I am pulling my hair out trying to get it sorted.

Yes, you can use this URL to run via web cron:
http://yourdomain/generator/index.php?op=crawlproc&bg=1&resume=1

Thanks this seems to be working now, why don't you add these instructions to the paperwork that comes with the download to save people like me and I am sure many others having to constantly wait for replies on forums.

I'm glad that worked.
In most cases it's supposed to be running using server cron (and command line is displayed on Crawling page) and not via web cron.
