The original sitemap was an abandoned project and idea, not by me but whoever was working on it originally. The new one is awesome and works great. I'm not sure people really understand how important this little module is. Contrary to popular belief, this is an important part of being found on the internet. The class.sitemap.php file can be found in the includes/classes directory.

I used some of the old code, not much just a few lines here and there, and the old sitemap's admin panel is the same.

This uses sitemap 0.9

The new Google Site Map Generator works better than just about anything I have seen. You will need to delete the old sitemap.xml file that is in the root directory of your portal/website as it is no longer used. The new sitemap.xml file is generated in the xmls/sitemap folder. This is not the file you tell google to look at.

You will need to point Google to your sitemap-index.xml file which resides in that very same directory.

You will do this by telling Google where the file is at like so https://yourwebsite.com/xmls/sitemap/sitemap-index.xml

You can do so by going here https://search.google.com/search-console?resource_id=sc-domain:yourdomain.com

I used a fast and lightweight class for generating Google-Site-Map XML files and index of sitemap files. Written in PHP and uses XMLWriter extension (wrapper for libxml xmlWriter API) for creating XML files. XMLWriter extension is enabled by default in PHP 5 > = 5.1.2. If you have more than 50000 URLs, it will split items into separated files. (In benchmarks, 1.000.000 URLs were generating in 8 seconds) The version we are using is a slightly modified version of the original.

The Sitemap class is now added to a SitemapPHP namespace.

Description: Network Projects Tracking System

It was time to finish this wonderful module that took so much time to create. Now that it has a warm home where it will get great use and appreciation. I am currently working on updating it with TheGhost aka Ernest Buffington. Ernest has updated a lot of the features under my tutelage and is a very creative person. So far the addons have made the Projects Tracking System easier to use and he has cosmetically improved the entire layout.

I originally created the NSN Projects Module in 2005 and many things have changed since then. Ernest came up with the idea of making a Projects Tracking System that is hosted on a remote database that is specific to our network and projects.

We expect to have it done in the next few weeks and are working diligently to get it done.

You can see the updates as we work in real-time by clicking the Networks Projeck Link.

  Added Features:

• Added Buttons instead of links
• Added 11 Project Types
• Fixed Project Links lower case change on Add Project and Edit Project
• Added Status Colors
• Added New Icons
• Fixed Table Layouts 
• Removed Bulky Tables and Menus

ToDo

• Update Task Map
• Update Report Map
• Update Request Map

Description: Portal Security Mod for PHP-Nuke, PHP-Nuke Titanium, and Nuke-Evolution Xtreme

Hello Everyone,

I want to start off by saying that a lot of folks have had their hands in the coding and design layout of this very important portal security module. When you pass the mantle so to speak you expect the person that takes over to use an overly gracious amount of emphasis on the authors, developers, and contributors that made it all possible. 

Let me start out by explaining why I'm using my real name as a contributor. I have been around and taken part in the development of just about every piece of code that is a part of PHP-Nuke. Short of off branding my own changes over the years, the truth is the dynamic FRANCIS framework of PHP-Nuke is what made all of it possible. I have been a part of all the developer communities over the last 30 years under different various nicknames or callsigns if you will, and with that being said, I guess you would have a hard time giving me credit unless I started using my real name. PHP-Nuke is open-source and for the most part, belongs to the developer communities that kept it alive, and the folks who are still keeping it alive after 30 years. The reason I am using my real name now is I have noticed a few people stirring the shit pot about people stealing code and saying it isn't theirs when in fact it truly is. The fact in the matter is that after it is modified it is no longer the original and anything modified must contain the new author's information. With that being said let's get class rolling...

If you're going to have something to say about who is claiming something is theirs make sure you do your homework before you start running your mouth and offending people old enough to be your grandfather, while at the same time making yourself look like a complete idiot. Let's start off with re-branded public and commercial software rights. The GNU general public license allows everyone to distribute and or sell their own version of PHP-Nuke or any software released under the GNU License and with any name that they so choose to use. You can legally sell software with a GPL license version 2 or 3 for whatever price you want to charge and interestingly enough we could sell the original software un-modified if we so choose to do so. This can all be pretty confusing to folks that do not have at least a 4th year of college reading and comprehension. Let me explain something, free software is referred to as free in terms of freedom and not in terms of the software price. What most people do is charge a distribution fee for different various renditions of software that other people have written the core engines for. Technically speaking anything you modify and change is yours and ipso facto makes you the current author, in fact, the original authors would usually prefer not to have their name attached to any version but the original and that is why as part of the law and why you are required to give a full copy of the original code un-modified with any version that you so choose to sell or distribute. There are exceptions with worldwide distributions such as PHP-Nuke because the original source code is already out there and very well known and there is no real need to emphasize on who is responsible for the ideas or concepts that went into the development of that particular software. However in court, if you did not supply a full copy that is un-modified alongside the original with the original author information, because the law is the law, you would lose any said battles that pertain to any such revenues earned.

Interestingly enough GNU copyrights are only legal if you provide your legal given name or the name of a legally registered business entity. With that being said you can't say copyright StarMonkey or Fragglenap. It must be your legally given birth name or a registered business entity. You cannot make up an entity name and use it without owning and registering it. A registered domain does not constitute any legal rights to the name you use. You must still register it as a legal trademark or license it as a business entity and this applies to everyone no matter where they are in the world. You may own the domain name and not have the name rights. So if you use a name make sure you license or register it as a trademark or business otherwise someone could steal it in about 10 minutes. 

What can happen is, you make someone angry and said person is quite wealthy, said person decides that they no longer like you, they register your domain as a trademark and then they license in your state or community under said name and then they drag you into court and sue your pants off.

Do yourself a favor, make sure you own any name that you decide to use...

Contributor: Ernest Allen Buffington
Version: v1.0.2
Core: PHP-Nuke Titanium v2.0.9d <> 4.x.x
Description: Web Links/Resources based on Journey Links Hack 

I went in and completely sorted through every line of code and got rid of <center> tags, added h1's, Rewrote a lot of the code, and fixed a few errors that went unseen for years. When writing an Editorial review it would only reflect the admin number and not the admins name, that is fixed now.

Someone in a rush did not set up the reCaptcha correctly for the add link section.

Added Bootstrap icons in various places to change the cosmetics a little.

Junked all the un-needed braces that were clutter.

Removed the old expired search engines that have not existed in years and while I was at it I added Google Groups, Disney and updated the JustLinux Forums search.

Description: To show and administrate several methods of backlinks to your website/portal.

Ernest updated the display on the Link_Us index page. It needed to be displayed properly, which may just be a matter of opinion however I'm ocd and I could not take it any longer. I went ahead and took the time to lay out the table and add a fieldset to the default image section. I have not added any other size link back images so I have no idea what those will end up looking like. In that event, I am sure I will log in and re-write those areas as well. For now, this website has only the standard default link back image sizes in use so I will wait till I have to cross that bridge to fix it.

I modified the index.php file located in the "modules/Link_Us/public" directory.
