Google Sitemaps–

I’ve had to dis­able Google Sitemaps for this site in a bid to stop post and com­ment form sub­mis­sions result­ing in a blank page. Prob­a­bly gonna negate a bit of the Google Love but that’s okay, the blank pages have been dri­ving me batty! Word­Press plu­gin Google Sitemaps basi­cally uses too much mem­ory (I think… PHP error report­ing isn’t turned on on this server so I can’t be 100% sure)… last time it suc­ceeded it wrote a 3MB file I think. Could also be a gzip related issue but I doubt it (gzip works fine for other things IIRC).

So enjoy com­ment­ing again with­out a hor­ri­bly blank screen greet­ing you!

    You *should* be able to over­ride the php mem­ory limit with your own php.ini file. Although I’m not sure if that it work­ing. You could try an .htac­cess set­ting, or I could just increase the limit.

    I tried turn­ing error_reporting on a few weeks back using .htac­cess and had lit­tle suc­cess in any­thing other than gen­er­ally break­ing stuff & bring­ing up 500 Inter­nal errors every­where. Not too fussed, really :P My first (and last) AdSense cheque is get­ting VERY SLOWLY closer to com­ple­tion (I’m at $75 I think, I need $100) and then I’ll cease to really care about exter­nal traf­fic when I lose this stu­pid failed exper­i­ment :P

    Alter­na­tively, I need to start link-whoring on Slashdot!
