How can I find my Webmaster Tools HTML file?
-
So, totally amateur hour here, but I can't for the life of me find our HTML verification file for webmaster tools. I see nowhere to look at it in Google Webmaster Tools console, I tried a site:, I googled it, all the info out there is about how to verify a site. Ours is verified, but I need the verification file code to sync up with the Google API and no one seems to have it. Any thoughts?

It was your second answer that did it. Here's a link to the documentation on it as well if anyone else runs across this thread. https://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=140369&topic=2370564&ctx=topic
Once you say you want to change it it will give you the option to view details on your current verification file.

"Go into google webmaster tools and click add a site. Then go to the home dashboard (the main screen) > click manage site and then click verify site > click on the alternate methods in the verification tab and there is the html file option"
This was my orignial repsonse but only works if not verified sorry > if verified click manage site > add or remove users > manage site owners > verify using a different method.

Can I have an http AND a https site on Google Webmaster tools
My website is https but the default property that was configured on Google WMT was http and wasn't showing me any information because of that. I added an https property for that, but my question is: do I need to delete the original HTTP or can I leave both websites?

How do I redirect index.html to the root / ?
The site I've inherited had operated on index.html at one point, and now uses index.php for the home page, which goes to the / page. The index.html was lost in migrating server hosts. How do I redirect the index.html to the / page? I've tried different options that keep giving ending up with the same 404 error. I tried a redirect from index.html to index.php which ended in an infinite loop. Because the index.html no longer exists in the root, should I created it and then add a redirect to it? Can I avoid this by editing the .htaccess? Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!
