Submit sitemap automatically #11

Open rootwork opened 3 years ago

rootwork commented 3 years ago

Followup to #5, we should have an action that submits the sitemap every time that file changes.

Started building one, but so far it's skipping every time.

It looks like the old action that is being used might be pinging the wrong address.

The correct address for submitting to Google is:

https://www.google.com/ping?sitemap=https://www.titaniumringsforever.com/sitemap.xml

And Bing is: https://www.bing.com/webmaster/ping.aspx?siteMap=https://www.titaniumringsforever.com/sitemap.xml

This might be working? Need to check on another day to see if this workflow:

https://github.com/exotica-jewelry/ringsforever/actions?query=workflow%3A%22Sitemap+submitter%22

is actually generating an updated sitemap here:

https://search.google.com/u/2/search-console/sitemaps?resource_id=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.titaniumringsforever.com%2F&hl=en

Folded it into one action: https://github.com/exotica-jewelry/ringsforever/commit/5f01ee7c93ed36733e224fd2dd9b608ac30bf35b#diff-87ee5504a3e25ac558b343724c905f2f7949e8cec3d92b9c4300bb922afa164f

Still need to check, then, if THIS action is submitting (it seems like it is): https://github.com/exotica-jewelry/ringsforever/actions?query=workflow%3A%22Sitemap+generator%22

Ideally it should be changed so it only commits & submits (ha) when there is a change to the sitemap, not on every push to GH.

It is definitely submitting; need to check if it only builds & submits when there's a change to the sitemap.
