the new version from the Smart-Thinker Social Networking Product Suite integrates with Ventrian News Article to allow you to publish News Article events to your profile feed and to output your public profiles to your Google Sitemap for indexing via Ifinity. See an example on this poker player profile or this blog article. The story event shows up on the homepage and on the profile feed.

You can see the PokerDIY site map in action here (http://www.pokerdiy.com/GoogleSiteMap.axd - note- please do not link to this or hit it too frequently as it places load on the server). This will allow your profiles to be indexed by Google more efficiently, especially if you have orphaned URLs.

• Integration with the free Ifinity SiteMap Provider version 1.2.14+. Optionally output x profile pages into your Google Sitemap for faster indexing. The Ifinitity Sitemap Provider needs to be installed before switching on in web.config). See the Smart-Thinker DNN Blog for configuration instructions.
• StoryFeed view can now be set to All to show all activity on a site to any user (see homepage of http://www.pokerdiy.com as an example)

•     New StoryFeed token [Story:ActionTimeAndDate] (changed default template) - formats the story time as "updated x minutes ago" up until 1 day ago then displays time and short date
•     2 New Tokens for handling if DOB has not been selected - [BIRTHDAYCOUNTDOWN] and [DOBDAYMONTHNULL] (Display language strings if not set)
•     New token [WEBSITE] - formats [*C*Website] token correctly (works regardless of http:// and does not show if blank). Replaces old "<a target="_blank" href="[*C*Website]">[*C*Website]</a>". It is highly recommended that you change your templates to reduce missing links (changed default template)
•     Performance Enhancement - Setting a UserProfile to a preset userID now uses a UserName textbox and not a ddl (better performance on large numbers of users). This applies to the following pages:

        - Friend Requests
        - Friends
        - Edit Profile
        - Profile Module Settings

•     Exposed DeleteStory(ActionID) as a Web Service Method in case the calling module wants to erase an old story
