How does one add a Sitemap to a site that is using the new Homestead responsive platform?

In the old site builder, I could add files via the file manager. I can't seem to find that anywhere I look on the new HS platform. Adding the Sitemap is easy, I just need to know where to do it on the new platform.

I looked through a bunch of questions here, but all the answers seem to apply to the old Site Builder.

There is no need. The new Websitebuilder creates and updates the sitemap automatically when you publish.

How does one see it? I know to look at the Pages or Manage Pages to see all pages in the website -but is the "site map" a page viewers can see as well? Or am I way off here? I created a page that has my website info as well as a "site map" which is simply text box with an outline of all the pages (with their corresponding links)...

Also, is there a navigation "menu" that we can add to the top of each page that tells people where they are within the website? For example, it reads Home>>Gallery>>Client when on that page? Kind of like a 'you are here'.

You can see the sitemap by going to http://www.yourdomain.xxx/sitemap.xml

Depending on which site you are working on, you might have to create one using a sitemap generator. The new builder does it for you. We do not have a way to show the path like that.

Hi Drew, I want to upload my sitemap to google webmaster tools. Google is asking me for a file name. Can you tell me where I would find the file name for the sitemap in the new website builder?
