    1. Long story short, there was a conflict between a content builder plugin (Thrive Content Builder) I was using and a variety (I was testing several to see which would actually work, but only used one at a time) of ‘maintenance mode’ plugins I was using to keep my site (https://www.healermarketing.com/) inactive.

    2. I decided just to activate the site and stop screwing around with the maintenance mode plugins because it wasn’t generating a 503, like I wanted.

    3. Now when I submit the sitemap (https://www.healermarketing.com/sitemap_index.xml) to the search console I’m getting the error “URL restricted by robots.txt”

    4. I edited the robots text file in Yoast so that it was like all of my other active sites:

    User-agent: *
    Disallow: /wp-admin/
    Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php

    5. Still, the sitemap isn’t being accepted in search console.

    6. The robots.txt tester is giving me an “Allowed” status when I tested the sitemap as of 5 minutes ago.

    Just looking for some help/feedback of what I should do? Anything I’m missing? Thanks in advance!
