Have spidered our site and generated some url results that are odd. Our dynamic querystrings have several parameters in many cases. One of which is "sort".

For example: www.xyz.com/page.php?a=string1&b=string2&sort=item&c=string3

in order to not include sorted pages in our sitemap, we filled the "ignore querystring" field on the prefs page with "sort".

This generated the following url: www.xyz.com/page.php?a=string1&b=string2c=string3

It removed the "sort" string as well as the leading and trailing ampersands, which of course broke the query and generated thousands of bad pages in the sitemap. Is there an easy fix to this?

By the way, love the application!

TGAG,
That's strange...I wonder if you have an older version.
In any case, please PM me your URL and I'll walk through the code to see what's happening.
In the meantime, I have a few forum sites with lots of querystring variables I can test with.
We'll get this resolved today.
Thanks,
Brian

As suspected, you must be running an older version where this must have been an issue.
Can you please download v4.1.2:
http://www.iarchitect.net/Uploads/106/SGv4.1.2.zip

It's not a complete installation package (beta release...it's been thoroughly tested).
Just unzip the files to the software installation directory (and overwrite the existing versions).
Default installation directory: C:\Program Files\iArchitect\iArchitect Sitemap Generator\

After trying it out, please let me know how it works.

Thanks,
Brian
