  Category.find_in_order.each do |category|
    sitemap.add category_page_path(category), :changefreq => 'daily', :priority => 0.6
    Product.interesting_from_category(category.id, 0, nil, true).each do |product|
      sitemap.add details_id_path(product), :changefreq => 'weekly', :priority => 0.5
    end
  end

And running against a Rails 1.2.2 project. Only a few changes needed:

• Need to provide a String#present? (which was easy since I already had String#nonblank?)
• Cope with the change from app/controllers/application.rb to app/controllers/application_controller.rb by adding:
  • require 'app/controllers/application' to lib/sitemap_generator/helper.rb
