Google Sites Updates

Latest: Search for embedded content in Google Sites · 14 Jul 2025 - Search results on Google Sites will now include content from within embedded files, such as Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and PDFs. What’s changing Starting today, we're making it easier to find information within a Google Site. Previously, searching in a site only showed results from the text directly on the pages. Now, when you perform a search, the results will also include content from within embedded files, such as Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and PDFs.  This highly-requested update expands the search capabilities beyond just the content on the page, providing a more comprehensive and efficient experience. This feature helps you find exactly what you're looking for, whether it's on a page or within an embedded file.  Additional details  For existing sites, the fastest way to enable this feature is to re-publish your site.  If you choose not to republish, embedded search will still become available on your Site in the coming months.  No action is required for new sites as the feature will be enabled by default.  Getting started  Admins: There is no admin control for this feature.  End users: Visit the Help Center to learn more about searching embedded Drive files in Google Sites .
