[Plugin: WP Archive-Sitemap Generator] such a plugin exists already

Hi Ovidiu,
Thanks for your comment here on my first basic plugin. I’m trying to explore WP codex by this simple plugin. This is just a simple plugin without any complex option. I’m working on other plugin too and I hope you will like that.
Thanks,
Arpit Shah

?? didn’t want to sound negative, just pointing this kind of plugin exists already – still don’t let me discourage you, go ahead ??

I was looking at the Dragon sitemap generator myself at first, but it hasn’t been updated since 2007. Since there were so many changes made to WordPress in 2.8, I feel more comfortable going with a plugin that’s been upgraded to work on 2.8 and above. Thus I’m giving WP Archive-Sitemap Generator a try.

Thanks for this plugin, the DD sitemap plugin hasn’t been updated for quite some time

Actually, Dagon Design’s version works fine with the current (at this moment, 2.8.6) WP release; I have it working without a hitch on a site I maintain.

However, there are some very nice features that are unique to Arpit’s plugin; the pagination option is one such wonderful innovations. If at all, I’d suggest looking at the possibility of adding one thing to the plugin’s options: the ability to exclude individually identified posts/pages, i.e. by their ID. That’s one useful thing that DD’s version does well, and WP Archive-Sitemap Generator doesn’t – yet. Just a friendly suggestion… Otherwise, this is a promising addition to the ever growing WP plugin family. Thanks Arpit!
