 [[DokuWiki]] can automatically create an [[http://www.sitemaps.org/|XML Sitemap]] used by several big search engines like Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft.
-The sitemap creation is enabled with the [[config:sitemap]] option. The sitemap is placed in the cache subdirectory of your DokuWiki installation. It will be accessed by the following type of URL ''http://your_domain/dokuwiki/?do=sitemap''. Depending on the availability of gzip support in your PHP install it will either be named ''sitemap.xml.gz'' (when gzip is available) or ''sitemap.xml'' (with no gzip support). Nearly all modern PHP installs have gzip support enabled, so ''sitemap.xml.gz'' is your best guess.

 ===== Permission Setup =====
-To be able to create a sitemap, the webserver needs to have write access to the sitemap file. The easiest way to make sure it has, is to create an empty **''sitemap.xml.gz''** file and change its permissions accordingly((See [[install:permissions]] on tips about permission setting)).

 If your sitemap won't be created you can try to get some debug output from the indexer by calling ''%%http://yourserver/dokuwiki/lib/exe/indexer.php?debug=1%%'' in your browser.
-To force your sitemap to be re-created, try temporarily setting the [[config:sitemap]] option to a large, negative value.

+===== Question =====
+If my domain is a virtual host set to an farm animal, will the ''?do=sitemap'' work? For me, I have got an empty sitemap.xml.gz from my http://ghsrobert.tk/?do=sitemap . How should I fix it? --- [[user>MilchFlasche|MilchFlasche]] //2019-04-02 16:45//
+* I think it works. Your link is working alright. It returned a gz file as described above. That contained a folder inside which there is one file called sitemap. It had lots of valid links. The arrangement looks odd though.  --- [[user>jyoti|Jyoti]] //2019-05-20 11:03//
