I am currently experiencing some problems with my Google search implementation due to a recent change to HSTS for my entire shop.
How can I create a Google sitmeap in Magento which uses the 'https://' links instead of 'http://' ?
I have already deleted my sitemap and generated a new one. It still suses http:// links.
In Google search console I see that only 8 of my 45 sites have been indexed so far..
Appreciate your help!
The sitemap links are generated using the {{unsecure_base_url}}. Make sure you change this value from http://yoursite.com to https://yoursite.com found at System->Configuration->Web Unsecure Base URL. Also, make sure both Use Secure URLs in Frontend and Backend options are set to "Yes".

Hi and thanks for reading&answering my question. I am fairly new to Joomla,however I have built a directory website and started to put some content. I have created the standard pages(contact us, privacy etc) and added businesses. I would like SEO friendly URLs so I set Search Engine Friendly URLs, URL Rewriting --YES, and Suffix --No. However, Joomla somehow rewrites my alies and change them. example: mywebsite/bar-and-dinner is displayed now as my website/bar-din-r. I contacted the support of the plugin I use and they told me that I must have had some filters on Joomla that creates such a problem. I tried to purge cache on the website & server still the same. I just updated to Joomla 4.0. Thanks in advance for your help.
How to solve error of Wrong Pages found error in sitemap.xml of Magento? After i set "No" value in "Use Categories Path for Product URLs"...
It seems from your question that earlier you were having some urls for which path is now changed, thus you want earlier URL to be removed. If this is the case then you there are several option:-
Firstly google itself remove url not found after certain search.
Secondly you can use Google remove url tool(https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/url-removal), only if you have access of webmaster tool.
Thirdly add the url in robot.txt so that they are no more indexed by Google.
Hope this answers your question
I have just moved a magento site from one domain to the new one. Steps so far...
Backup the database and restore the database on the new domain. Change the core_config_base table for secure and unsecure base urls
Upload source files
Update the local.xml with new database information
Cleared cache
Now I can go to the site and everything is showing up fine on the new domain. The main navigation is working as it should. When I click on a product, however, it goes to the old domain. Does anyone know why this might be happening?
Can you verify the links when you hover products are correct or in correct consistently? Is old base URL in all links I mean. Also check htaccess file for any directives containing the old domain. Also check to make sure no custom URL rewrites exist in the Magento admin Catalog → URL Rewrite Management .Once you verify htaccess or custom URL rewrites in Magento admin are not causing it, I can suggest other procedures to fix.
Probably your previous developer didn't follow all Magento standards while coding.
My suggestion is download your code and search for strings that equates to your previous domain.Also check in data base, as use of CMS blocks too might result in previous domain links.
Btw make sure you delete all caches
Rm -rf var/cache/*
Verify base URL and secure URL are correct in all scopes via drop down in Magento system configuration.
Im having an issue with SSL links in Magento.
I have SSL setup and working...all usual settings.
When i view the source of a page, i can still see HTTP links...and this is invalidating the SSL.
The urls in question (relating to currnecy, store switcher, navigation) are all given out by Magento functions. Such as:
getCategoryUrl();
getSwitchCurrencyUrl();
Does anyone know what may be wrong...is their something i may have missed?
Need any more info, pls let me know...
thanks

This is a good thing in the fact that it 'help' prevent search engine from seeing links to your catalog and product page as also been https (causing duplicate content). Also to my knowledge, only if you have resources (images, css, js) it will affect (invalidate) your ssl (because of browser cookies). If you view source on a page with ssl magento will automatically convert those resources to https
Magento has in built functionality to use https for my account pages , login page and checkout pages. However, we're finding that only the images and script links are dynamically changing to https. All the page links are not changing in these secure area and have http links instead. We are using Magento 1.7
We're looking for a possible answer or some actual help here and are willing to pay for it.
Any suggestions?
