Description of my issue:
I read your helpful and funny troubleshooter on writing exceptions, and by and large I think I get it. However my issue isn't directly addressed and I thought I'd get some clarification on the best to address my problem.
Using Xmap to report my xml sitemap to google. Was not having a problem. Just yesterday installed a new extension, Qlue Custom 404, to address my broken links. But now my sitemap is blocked. I get this error:
Error loading stylesheet: An XSLT stylesheet does not have an XML mimetype:http://www.[mywebsite].com/index2.php?option=com_xmap&view=xslfile&tmpl=component
I contacted the Qlue team and they told me to try adding the following lines to my .htaccess
AddType application/xml .xsl
AddType application/xml xml
(The period before the xsl and *not* before xml was in their support notice; I haven't test so I don't know if this is an error.)
So in the htaccess maker I added xml and xsl the frontend and backend file-type exceptions.
I also added componant: com_xmap - view: sitemap to the WAF exceptions.
Neither of these solved the problem. When I look at the Chrome Developer Tools I don't see anything that jumps out at me as 'this is what needs to be allowed!' I suspect is has something to do with that index2.php, but I'm not sure how to write a safe exception for that.
Any thoughts?
