You must enable the XML sitemap engines module if you want to automatically submit your sitemap to search engines. 3) You can configure settings for the XML sitemap module at admin/settings/xmlsitemap. Settings for specific links are available within those links edit forms. 4) For existing data to become presented in the sitemap report you must execute cron.php. There are control settings at admin/settings/xmlsitemap for the number of rows to execute in one cron 240 second execution. Take note that all the module tasks executed at cron time share the same 240 seconds execution; if you are not seeing data populated you should increase the number of times in the day cron.php executes.
