Hi there,
First of all - many thanks for the Powerful and mighty GS
Now to the point.
Can Any one help me with some advice how can I generate the sitemap file + ping with just browser access
I'd love to get it like I've seen it on one private CMS.
Just enter an url with pass and login in it to my browser and It will create a sitemap and ping the site.
If this place is not the right place for this topic just move it.
Many thanks in advance, Piotr

[to the above]
It may be a thing to call via script on the server

which kind of sitemap do you want?
A)
sitemap for searchengines? => go to "Templates" => Click on"Create Sitemap" in the right sidebar
if you did not disable the ping function in gsconfig.php, search engines will be pinged
from up GS 3.1, sitemaps will be automatically created when you create, add, edit a page
b)
sitemap for your site visitors? Use i18N-plugin for that

Dear Connie, (thanks for a fast reply)
I'd like to have a sitemap.xml for search engines and a ping to Google (and others, as GS is doing now)
Click on the "Create Sitemap" button is a manual job and if You face it to do on 3-5k of websites You'll find it difficult. What I'd like to get is an ability to call the function with browser access .
Than I can use a bash script to call that via lynx (or other text browser) to make it run through the websites.
P.S.
I'm not to good in php so please help.

as I wrote in my answer, install GetSimple 3.1 (it is stable) and sitemaps for searchengines will automatically be generated when you create, add, edit a page
so you will need no additional script at all
what do you mean with "3-5k of websites ", 3000 to 5000 websites? Are you a spammer? Do you start a net of linksites? In that case I would not like to see Getsimple used for it ;=(

Dear Connie,
You misunderstand me - I'm not a spammer. I run (try to start) a company which will run a large (that's the target) amount of websites (till now like a 100 sites) for customers and I was just wondering how and is there a need to automate the process of sitemap building. If You say that GS 3.1 has an automatic update of sitemap then there is no worries.
P.S.
Spammers made my life miserable once ... they should go to H***

Since GS generates sitemap automatically (and ping searchengines if you won't disable this feature), the only thing you may do, is to ping google searchengine manually, by using such URI:
Code:
http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/ping?sitemap=http://www.[u]yourdomain.tld[/u]/sitemap.xml
Addons: blue business theme, Online Visitors, Notepad
