YOU MUST UPLOAD A FILE TO ANY SITE YOU WILL CRAWL!

Pay attention to the description, this is worthelss under many conditions and only the one sentence above will attempt to describe this.

This is not on their website and I don’t recall it from my original review and decison to buy.

Wanted to review our corporate site, but uploading this extra file will make this a pain to use.

Website says "After entering a web address, Sitemap Plus begins crawling the site to create a list of accessible pages, links and media files. Pages, links and content with accessibility issues are displayed in red and error reports can be exported for distribution to content and development teams.”

There is no mention of the file needing to be put on each website as now is mentioned above. After reading the website, I clicked for the App Store, saw no reviews and decided to take a chance. My mistake.

Sadly, the software never mentions that this is what is causing the problem. When I clicked “Crawl Site” it prompted me to "Create a file named: joqu9HrBttlmMBJ38W2mKh8M9YTm8C.html in your home directory before starting your crawl.” and took me to my home directory. Never does it say I will need to uplaod that file. Only reference I found so far is the sentence above that I think was added here after my purchase. I spent a lot of time trying to figure out why it never started the crawls.

It give no description of why it won’t work. It only sits there after creating a file in your home directory.

I assumed this was a work around for Apple’s Sandboxing. Nope, just stupid software with a stupid feature that isn’t explained. Buyer beware!!!!! Fix this and I’ll be able to give an actual review. Right now, i just lost my money.

How in the world did Applespeople manage to test this? Certinaly not on the Apple site.
