What i meant by not indexing images is, in sitemap we have url sent and url indexed. In web, i have over 3000 url sent and almost the same indexed. In images, i have over 2700 sent, but none indexed. Isn't it supposed to index the images also?

 <image:loc>http://my domainthttp://my domain/12387-large/puppy-kong.jpg</image:loc>

 

I'm getting crazy with this. no one module is working.... Somebody here to fix the code for tomer's latest one or at least the one I named in Post #65 ???

 

Please I need really urgent help on this. The problem remains since February....

 

I dont't understand why it is not possible to have a simply sitemap module working...

 

Hello,

I've found a way to do manually.

 

I open the xml file with wordpad (Windows), choose the wrong words :

exemple:

http://mywebsite/htt....com.../.../...

and choose the fonction "replace", to change "http://mywebsite/http://mywebsite.com" by "http://mywebsite.com".

Simply.

 

And it work ;)

 

 

And now Google indexed all your images?

Until then no image and now all of them are indexed?

Donwload the latest PS-Version and extract the module there from the modules, by uploading it manually to your FTP. BUT carefull, This module suits only PS 1.5.3 upwards. It does not work with PS 1.4. if you are using it.

I have managed to fix this issue : it's somehow similar to what happend in previous versions :

in sitemap.php at line 304 change from

   $image_link = $this->context->link->getImageLink($product->link_rewrite, $product->id.'-'.(int)$id_image['id_image']);

to 

   $image_link = $this->context->link->getImageLink($product->link_rewrite, $product->id.'-'.(int)$id_image['id_image'],'large');

 

practically you have to add a 

,'large'

at the end of function getImageLink

I did the test and, well , after two days:

All in all, I never worked with sitemap files before and am in doubt which content has to be in them to maximaxe Google's favor.

 

 

But I know and can tell that the gsitemap module I used under Ps1.49 (was a free 3rd party module) made Google index our pictures en masse!

 

So, how come it is still not working in 1.5.x?

I have just noticed that Google has not been indexing any of my images. I have been reading this post and it looks like you guy have fixed it?

 

but code is different from mine. Is this because I am using 1.4.9 and multiple languages?

Mine is

$image->addChild('loc', $link->getImageLink($product['link_rewrite'], (int)$product['id_product'].'-'.(int)$product['id_image']), 'http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap-image/1.1');

 

Recommended new

$image->addChild('loc', $link->getImageLink($product['link_rewrite'], (int)$product['id_product'].'-'.(int)$img['id_image'], 'large'), 'http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap-image/1.1');

 

Any help welcome on what to do to get this working for us.

Many thanks Rob

via sitemap...google  typically will NOT index images from a sitemap...but that does not mean they are not indexed..via google

robot..

 

to find out if you shop images have been indexed try this:

 

In google search bar enter site:YOURURL

 

click images

 

do you see images?

Hi guys,

 

I also have the similar problem I guess.
We all know that native Prestashop Google sitemap generator module is buggy and it doesnt work well.

 

I'm not sure if this has to do with indexing my images but these are the screenshots of my Google webmaster tools dashboard.

http://prntscr.com/2ounpu
http://prntscr.com/2ouodt
http://prntscr.com/2ouoqs

Any thoughs?

Thank you 
Dean

my experience, and I may have noted it earlier in this post, and if you  search outside of PrestaShop for example "google no indexing images" tells us that basically google will not 'always' (read most of the time) index images  via sitemap.  They will  however be indexed by bot.  my two cents...

Hi, I tried in prestashop 1.4.10 to insert 'large' in the way you said, but when I go to generate the sitemap all image urls generated in sitemal not work .. urls generated are .../0-large/...does not insert the correct id why??

please help me!

 

i use the string

$image->addChild('loc', $link->getImageLink($product['link_rewrite'], (int)$product['id_product'].'-'.(int)$img['id_image'], 'large'), 'http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap-image/1.1');

I have the same indexing problem this is my code 

 

private function _addSitemapNodeImage($fd, $link, $title, $caption)
{
fwrite($fd, '<image:image><image:loc>'.$link.'</image:loc><image:caption>'.$caption.'</image:caption><image:title>'.$title.'</image:title></image:image>');
}
 
Where would I add the "Large" word?

Hi!

google start re indexing my images too!

in my case i used thickbox_default image . What you will use depends of the settings at 

Preferences separator_breadcrumb.png Image 

An example of an image is

http://stickit.gr/img/p/2/3/8/9/6/23896-thickbox_default.jpg

 

 

I have added at line 326 of gsitemap.php ,located at /modules/gsitemap/  the ,'thickbox_default'

 

Original line

$image_link = $this->context->link->getImageLink($product->link_rewrite, $product->id.'-'.(int)$id_image['id_image']);

 

Altered line

$image_link = $this->context->link->getImageLink($product->link_rewrite, $product->id.'-'.(int)$id_image['id_image'],'thickbox_default');

 

:mellow:

sorry - but isn't text more important than pic? i read somewhere that robots don't care about pictures only text... but maybe I'm totally wrong... don't hate me - I will check it, but if someone know better - help now 

 

The reason why having the images indexed is important to many webmasters is because image search can and will lead to clicks to your website too - IF the images are indexed by Google. It might not drive as much search traffic as organic listing for the web section of Google, but hey, even if image search only brings you 10-100 visitors a day, it still is traffic.
