I've seen the new version.
I added  the tx_ddgooglesitemap.forceStartPid and so i solved the 
problem only for the shortcut in the root-page.
My problem is that I've other shortcuts in the page tree.
So the extension don't insert those pages and all the branch starting 
from the page in the sitemap.

To be clear, here is a portion of my pagetree:

root (shortcut to HomePage, pid=1)
- Homepage
- Activities (shortcut to first subpage)
- Auditorium
--- Page 1
--- Page 2
--- Page 3
- News (shortcut to first subpage)
...........

In my TS Template I put
tx_ddgooglesitemap.forceStartPid =1

For such a page tree the sitemap produced contain only branchs starting 
with pages that are not shortcut, namely:

- Homepage
- Auditorium
--- Page 1
--- Page 2
--- Page 3

Do you have a explaination for this?
