Has anyone verified their site with Pinterest? I set up an account and have a few boards where I use Pinterest to pin images etc. to get some backlinks. I just noticed you can also "verify your website" by signing up with Pinterest and they email you a meta tag that they ask you to insert into your site's code. They supply you with "Add this meta tag to the <head> of your index.html file or equivalent" and am asking where I would navigate to add the short line of code? Do I go to APPEARANCE>EDITOR>then? Not sure, any help is appreciated.
Hey there, You have very nicely explanation on this LINK You have installation, description, even screenshots. I hope this will help you. (Ofc always there is option, you can edit header.php and just put that meta tag)
Yes, that's where. Appearance -> Editor Choose the header.php file and you'll see the page header stuff. Look for the <head> tag and put the meta anywhere after that, as long as it's before the </head> tag. There will be other meta tags in there, so it should be easy to spot. It will then exist on every page of your site, so Pinterest shouldn't have any trouble finding it!
Or, to keep your header.php clean, you can just add the next code in functions.php file inside your theme's root. (create one if your theme doesn't have a functions.php file) <?php function theme_pinterest_verification_code() { ?> Put here the code provided by Pinterest as HTML. <?php } add_action('wp_head', 'theme_pinterest_verification_code'); ?> PHP:
