      Hello,

      I'm no Wordpress developer so need a little help please. I have manually created a video sitemap. It needs to be uploaded to the website. Where should the .xml file be uploaded onto Wordpress?  Which directory?

      Is it Ok to add the code to a notepad file and upload? I'm trying to avoid the plugin route if possible.

      Thanks

        Hmmm, why not go the plugin route. You seem to try something that is obviously meant to be handled in a plugin.

        Anyway, what you could do is just put the XML file in the root folder of your WordPress install. From there on it should be available and accessible on your server.
