Add sitemap for blog - invalid xml

When I add sitemap-blog.xml to my google search console>sitemaps page … it says one error : it’s an html page … which it’s clearly not ?

The sitemap generated by the cms is invalid - can we do anything ?

Not sure if this helps (from Validate XML Sitemap - XML Sitemaps Generator)

To be clear - this is not the sitemap for the site, but the sitemap generated by the blog

I get a 404 error when I try to go to the URL you’re trying to use: https://www.peteryates.co.uk/blog/blog/sitemap-blog.xml

However, this URL works :wink:
https://www.peteryates.co.uk/blog/sitemap-blog.xml

Sharp as a beachball - thank you Dan !!

Happy New Year by the way - clearly well rested : )
