Where to put sitemap.xml and urllist.txt?

[DAR]

I have a "search-site" folder under the root directory of my site in which I place the generated Zoom files. However, am I right in thinking that the following files should go in the root directory itself:

1. sitemap.xml
2. sitemap_index.xml
3. urlist.txt

and that the other files - "search", "settings", and all the files prefixed by "zoom" are all that are required in the folder for the search engine to function properly?

Yes, that's correct.

And you can specify a different folder to upload the sitemap files (from where your index files will be uploaded), under "Configure"->"Sitemaps"->"Upload sitemap files to web server"->"Folder or path on server".

Excellent, Ray - thank you very much.
