I've tried installing the XML Sitemap Generator with FileZilla several times but whenever I try "[ External links are visible to forum administrators only ]" I get a 404-page not found message. Any advice you can offer will be much appreciates

Hello,

please try to create a file name ".htaccess" in generator/ folder with one line:
RewriteEngine off

Thanks for your reply. I've created the ".htaccess" file but am still getting the same 404 error

Do you have .htaccess file in domain root folder? If yes, what is it's content?

Make sure that you have 755 permissions set for generator/ folder and 644 permissions set for generator/index.php file.

Changing the permissions worked! Thanks for your help

Perhaps this should be in the installation instructions. I spent a while reading the forum to find out this was the simple issue.
