    If I were you I'd create a sitemap for all of the main pages on your site INCLUDING the main page of the forum, but not for every forum post itself. Once a spider finds your site, it'll do what it needs to do with your forum.

    I think you should generate sitemaps of your website including forum, now and then will probably be fine. Even if you can not find a XML sitemaps plugin for your forum, you can just automate some sitemap creator program, e.g. A1 Sitemap Generator.

    Well, their have a seo plugin but no sitemap generator plugin :(
    then if i use any sitemap generator should i update that regularly with growing of my forum ? Or just once is enough ?

    Depends. I would probably just do it once per week or once per month. But you can also do it more often if you wish, e.g. if you automate it to run once every day.

    As I sell my A1 Sitemap Generator program, I think you better ask someone else about that :D

    But if you could get a plugin for the forum you use that would probably be the best. (Perhaps you can convince the forum makers to make one?)
