 * Hi,
    Am trying to “Add New Page” in the Additional Pages section, however it 
   doesn’t seem to do anything.
 * When I hover over the link the following error appears in the status bar. javascript:
   void(0);
 * When I click on the link nothing happens.
 * Any ideas what could be going wrong?
 * Thanks
    Sharon

 * Hi,
 * Don’t know if your problem is similar, but I made the mistake of removing the
   execute permissions on my plugins subfolder and after that I also could not ‘
   add pages’ to the XML sitemap plugin page.
 * Once I changed the permissions to ‘read’ and ‘execute’, the add page link worked
   again.
 * Hope this helps.

 * Got the same problem. I’ve checked the permission on the pulugin subfoder and
   everything is 777. But I still get error on page when clicking on Add New Pages.
 * Any idea?

 * Just to add some more info: I’m running WP 2.7.1 with XML Sitemap Generator for
   WordPress 3.1.2. The blog runs in a subfolder while the the index.php is on the
   root of the site.
 * I noticed anothe problem: in the plugin configuration page I can’t see the paypal
   donate icon. Checking on the image properties I see that the path i worong and
   points to [http://domain/blog/wp-content/plugins/plugins/img/icon-donate.gif](http://domain/blog/wp-content/plugins/plugins/img/icon-donate.gif)(
   you can see there is twice the plugin directory, while it should be only once).
   That path is the same that contains also the sitemap.js script, and therefore
   I tought it could be relevant.

 * I just made a test on devel site, and added a plugins/plugins/img directory (
   and files) and it seems to work: I can now see all the icons and the Add New 
   Page works perfectly.

 * Further more investigation.
    It seems that the GetPluginUrl returns a wrong path.
   Acutally that function depends on a WP API introduced in WP 2.6 that is returning
   the wrong path.
 * My workaround is to comment line 979 on the sitemap-core.php that force the GetPluginUrl
   to find manually the path.
