Google Has Changed Ping Location For Sitemaps


The ping url for your sitemaps has changed so you need to update any modifications that use a ping to google to notify of an update your sitemaps.

The url went from:

Code:
http://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/ping?sitemap=
to

Code:
http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/ping?sitemap=
So if you use VBSEO Sitemap Generator you need to open vbseo_sitemap_functions.php and find:

PHP Code:
$gurl 'http://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/ping?sitemap='.urlencode($url); 
to

PHP Code:
$gurl 'http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/ping?sitemap='.urlencode($url); 

Thanks to Google has changed the location to ping for sitemap submissions. - vBulletin Modification Discussions for the update

If you have your sitemaps added to your webmasters account you don't need to enable google each time ;)
