sitemaps not quite as easy to setup as suggested?

[in...@webbricks.co.uk]

hi all, struggling to get sitemaps setup. followed docs, including
working out there was an import missing in the docco.

this is the copy n paste error

should i be populating sitemaps in the urls file?

ok, read the docs properly and understood it a bit more. im stuck with
one thing though. i get how simple it is to tell the sitemap about all
the objects that have been created but what about the static pages,
where you've not used flatpages. for instance a contact form you've
created, this should be in the sitemap, but isnt a flatpage.

how do i go about adding them to the dict in the urls file?

I keep sitemap for those objects in 1 sitemap file, and manually create another sitemap file for all my static pages.

Then, create a sitemap index to point to the two.

Would love to hear from others though.
