Hi
I hope you can help, I have checked with YoastVersion 12.1 before I came to this forum, and the Yoast Plugin is fine.

I am trying to get my Pages crawled by Google, however when I click on the Link abouve I am getting a lot of text which looks very like it’s being generated by the Photo Gallery Version 1.5.36

I also looked on the webmaster tools and found this:
/bwg_gallery-sitemap.xml

/bwg_tag-sitemap.xml Sitemap 16 Sep 2019 1 error
/bwg_album-sitemap.xml Sitemap 18 Sep 2019 1 error
/bwg_gallery-sitemap.xml Sitemap 16 Sep 2019 1 error

Any help would be appreciate
Toby

I am trying to get my Website Pages crawled by Google, however when I click on the SEO to generate a Site Map which is a Yoast Plugin (the Link below) I am getting a lot of text which looks very like it’s being generated by the Photo Gallery Version 1.5.36.

I have checked with Yoast who looked at the link below and informed me that there plugin was OK.

I also looked on the webmaster tools and found the following, which looks like it’s being generated by Photo Gallery:
/bwg_gallery-sitemap.xml
/bwg_tag-sitemap.xml Sitemap 16 Sep 2019 1 error
/bwg_album-sitemap.xml Sitemap 18 Sep 2019 1 error
/bwg_gallery-sitemap.xml Sitemap 16 Sep 2019 1 error

Hi @kimabaghdasaryan

I tried your suggestion, however I am still seeing the same error?

I carried out the task last night, flushed all Cache on the website

and allowed 24 hours for it to propagate through the system, however it still

shows: https://correlectricalservices.co.uk/page-sitemap.xml

Any other suggestions would be gratefully appreciated.

Best Regards

Toby

Dear @toby963,

Sorry for the belated response.

Please try to go to Photo gallery->Options->Discourage search engines and check “No“.
Then you should generate XML again.

Sincerely,

Hi
Sorry if I sound desperate, but I am, does anyone have any ideas of
How I can fix this?
I don’t want to use another plugin as Photo Gallery provides great Galleries and looks great on my site, but if I can’t get this sorted soon I may have to go look somewhere else and I really don’t want to do that.
Anyone any idea’s

Thank’s in advance
Toby

Hi
I know that you are looking into this problem, and there are others who have problems and this is the is the free version.

In saying that I have had this problem for a Month and as much as it hurts,
I will have to look for another photo gallery as this problem is affecting my web site’s ranking as I can’t generate xml site maps for Google.

I had a quick look and can’t see anything but I assume that to remove the plugin, it’s just a matter of Deactivate then Delete the plugin then flush the websites Cache

Similar issue is Unexpected output breaks page/post sitemaps #12302. Based on my experience, I think that following code breaks sitemaps (file framework/WDWSitemap.php):
$controller = new BWGControllerSite( ucfirst( $params[ 'gallery_type' ] ) );
I think that it should be wrapped by output buffers (as quick workaround). Something like this:
```
ob_start();
$controller = new BWGControllerSite( ucfirst( $params[ 'gallery_type' ] ) );
ob_end_clean();
```
I didn’t test it, but someone could test it. As Yoast contributor, I’ve found few cases when this approach was fixed similar issues.

Hello,

I thank Saša for writing a message here, this is the person who analyzed my issue on the Yoast plugin forum and managed to find the source of the issue.

I noticed the issue on my sitemap ( https://karnoden.fr/page-sitemap.xml ) only yesterday on a routine check, I notice that in fact it appeared a while ago.

I hope that Saša’s analysis will help Photo Gallery’s coders to solve the issue.

Best regards,

Kévin CAROL

Hi Saša

Thank you for your input to this problem.

I hope that this helps the Photo Gallery codes find a fix for this problem.

I have had this issue for over 5 week’s now and love this plugin.

So hopefully in another few days this problem should be fixed

and I will not have to hunt to find something as good as this plugin.
