Hi,

I have tried to add Google verification to my child them functions page. I am now being given the following message:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘}’ in /www/sites/baa/60b/www.bcreativebranding.co.uk/web/wp-content/themes/x-child/functions.php on line 12

I am pretty amateur at this but cannot see where this problem is. Would it be possible for someone to correct this for me as I am stuck now and cannot access my site?

Thank you in advance.

Hello There,

Thanks for writing in! It turns out that you have added a code that messed out your site. You have this:

// add_action('wp_head','cmk_google_verifiy_meta'); function cmk_google_verifiy_meta() { ?>  
  <meta name="google-site-verification" content="1d-LCa95NBgLRwKRVNp1BKH3lJf1l-fz2tfOYb_mzfI" />
 <?php }

I went ahead and fixed it. I ended up modifying the code into this:

// Add Google site verification
add_action('wp_head','cmk_google_verifiy_meta'); 
function cmk_google_verifiy_meta() { ?>  
  <meta name="google-site-verification" content="1d-LCa95NBgLRwKRVNp1BKH3lJf1l-fz2tfOYb_mzfI" />
 <?php }

The issue has been fixed and you can now logged in back to your site.

Thats great! Thank you so much. 🙂

So if I add other search engine verification do I enter it now under the Google code?

You’re welcome. Yes, you can put code that needs to be placed in the head under the Google code.
