 * I am not quite sure what I am experiencing here.
    I installed the plugin version
   4.0.2 and I did NOT network activate. Instead I activated for one site, ‘example.
   com’. I also created a sitemaps directory in the wordpress root and made it writable.
   The files are created.
 * My wp multisite runs the admin over SSL, so [https://example.com/wp-admin](https://example.com/wp-admin)
 * The ‘detected URL’ is [https://example.com/sitemaps/https:–example-com.xml](https://example.com/sitemaps/https:–example-com.xml)
   but Google Webmaster Tools doesn’t want to see it (maybe because the certificate
   is self-signed?). When entered in the browser, it looks fine though.
 * I changed to manual URL generation, and entered [http://example.com/sitemaps/example-com.xml](http://example.com/sitemaps/example-com.xml)
 * I checked this in the browser (FF) and got this:
 *     ```
       Error loading stylesheet: An unknown error has occurred (805303f4)
       https://example.com/wp-content/plugins/google-xml-sitemaps-with-multisite-support/sitemap.xsl
       ```
   
 * But the sitemap was automatically submitted to Google and it was detected without
   error.
 * My guess: while generating the sitemap, the URL of the stylesheet is still marked
   as https even though the manual URL says http.
 * So, it works, even while in the browser it doesn’t seem to work.
