    Hi everyone,
    I'm back after a long break! I’ve recently revived one of my old domains from 2022 https://www.drifthuntersunblocked.net and decided to host it on Google Sites for a test.

    I'm having a bit of a technical struggle with Google Search Console. When I try to submit my sitemap, I keep getting an "Invalid path" or "Could not fetch" error.

    I've tried:
    1. Submitting sitemap.xml
    2. Submitting the full URL
      But nothing seems to work. Has anyone here successfully managed to get a Google Sites sitemap indexed on a custom domain recently?

      I’d also appreciate it if you could take a quick look at the site https://www.drifthuntersunblocked.net and tell me if it loads correctly for you, or if the redirect from the non-www version is working fine on your end.

      Thanks in advance for the help!
