Simple and effective XML Sitemap Generator
A simple and effective XML Sitemap generator. Adding individual fields to pages, you can change the <priority> parameter, or you can exclude pages from the sitemap if desired, and the whole map will be written fresh every time you save a page, with updated save dates. Author was responsive to an error that appeared in my PHP log, and everything works smooth (version 2.2.7). IMHO, this handy little plugin deserves way more users.

Very Simple and Very Effective
This plugin does a great job generating an XML sitemap automatically. It does what its supposed to do without errors or obtuse complexities such as with "Big Name" SEO plugins.
