Sitemap code example

[Franky]

If you want to create a sitemap, use the following code as an example:

<?php

error_reporting('E_NONE'); // Suppress errors on production server
require('/var/www/html/wordpress/wp-blog-header.php');

$events = eme_get_events(5000, "all", "DESC");
$header = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>'."\n" . '<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">'."\n";
$urls = "";
$footer = "</urlset>";
if (!empty($events)) {
        foreach ($events as $event) {
                // Build Sitemap Elements
                $locurl = eme_event_url($event);
                // Format the date - also in case some EME Events have 0000-00-00 date format, manually add 1st Jan 2012
                if(strtotime($event['modif_date']) > strtotime('2010-01-01 00:00')){
                        $lastmod = date('Y-m-d', strtotime($event['modif_date']));
                } else {
                        $lastmod = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('2010-01-01 00:00'));
                }
                // Make future events higher priority
                if(strtotime($event['event_start_date']) > strtotime('today')){
                        $priority = 0.9;
                        $changefreq = "daily";
                } else {
                        $priority = 0.3;
                        $changefreq = "monthly";
                }
                // Concatenate List of URLs
                $urls .= "<url>\n<loc>$locurl</loc>\n<lastmod>$lastmod</lastmod>\n<changefreq>$changefreq</changefreq>\n<priority>$priority</priority>\n</url>\n";
        }
}
// Print Sitemap
$xmlsitemap = $header . $urls . $footer;

// Encode as UTF8 then write to file
$myFile = "/var/www/html/wordpress/sitemap-events.xml";
$fh=fopen($myFile,"w");
fwrite($fh,utf8_encode($xmlsitemap));
fclose($fh);
echo "Sitemap Updated";
?>
