hi,

i did like you told me but it didnt worked

it is saying the code wasnt added.

thank you

Easiest way to do this is actually using the YOAST WordPress SEO plugin. That’s what we use. Also allows you to insert verification elements for Bing, Alexa, etc., and manage the title and description tags for all the category and tag pages. Much easier than doing all that yourself.

Alternately you could try editing the header.php file in the theme folder and insert the code there.

eg. put it right after this line
<link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo( 'pingback_url' ); ?>" />

hi,

That solved the problem thankyou so much for the support.

have a nice day 🙂

Been there 🙂
I don’t work here, but I use the themes every day, and sometimes have some free time while waiting for dbases to backup and such, hence why I pop in here to help, but also to keep an eye on any really big thing that might mess up my own sites.

Happy to help!
