For all of you having problems sending sitemap to google, getting an error from google about changefreq, and having sites set them up as latin charsets for European countries, and mysql data model tables as LATIN1.

It has been a little bit difficult to isolate this issue, because I was getting an error whithout too much information. But finally I got it. The problem occurs because special chars in latin charset provided by mysql in LATIN charset too, are not converted well into UTF-8, which is the default charset used by nukeSEO to build the sitemap in your PHPNuke site.

What's the solution then?

Modify index.php in modules/Sitemap/index.php and replace the line containing UTF-8 for ISO-8859-1 for example, or maybe other one adjusted for your configuration.

That's all.

Then you can build the sitemap and send it to google without problems.

Cheers.

Sounds like a great idea for the next release - thanks!
