I created a child them “renew” stack and added the following to functions.php (I got this from one of the other forum posts – in fact it was the third one since the others all had some php code problems)

add_action(“wp_head”, “x_add_google_code”);
function x_add_google_code(){
?>
<meta name=”google-site-verification” content=” my verification code” />
<?php
}
However, when I go to “view source” the meta tag has not been added.

Also, there is a problem with my homepage. The recent posts is not acting correctly. There is only 1 post selected, yet it looks like it is trying to show 2. It looks fine in cornerstone.

Here is the complete functions.php

<?php
// =============================================================================
// FUNCTIONS.PHP
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Overwrite or add your own custom functions to X in this file.
// =============================================================================

// =============================================================================
// TABLE OF CONTENTS
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//   01. Enqueue Parent Stylesheet
//   02. Additional Functions
// =============================================================================

// Enqueue Parent Stylesheet
// =============================================================================

add_filter( 'x_enqueue_parent_stylesheet', '__return_true' );

// Additional Functions
// =============================================================================

add_action("wp_head", "x_add_google_code");
function x_add_google_code(){
  ?>
  <meta name="google-site-verification" content="my verification code" />
  <?php
}
<?php });

Hi,

Please replace the entire code in your functions.php file with this.

<?php
// =============================================================================
// FUNCTIONS.PHP
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Overwrite or add your own custom functions to X in this file.
// =============================================================================

// =============================================================================
// TABLE OF CONTENTS
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//   01. Enqueue Parent Stylesheet
//   02. Additional Functions
// =============================================================================

// Enqueue Parent Stylesheet
// =============================================================================

add_filter( 'x_enqueue_parent_stylesheet', '__return_true' );

// Additional Functions
// =============================================================================

add_action("wp_head", "x_add_google_code",99999);
function x_add_google_code(){
  ?>
  <meta name="google-site-verification" content="my verification code" />
  <?php
}

Hope that helps.

I have done this but I still can’t see it in the source code:
view-source:http://www.ielts7.guru/

Is there some child theme set up I have missed? Also, the problem with recent-posts is still there.

The problem was I had put the new functions.php in the x-child/framework/views/renew ,which was what I thought I should do based on the documentation and forum posts.

I moved it to x-child/ and now the site works – except I STILL CAN’T see that the google verification code is in place.

Hi There,

Upon checking your website’s source, I can see the Google Verification Code:

Regards!

Great! Thanks!

You’re welcome!

I need to add verification code for Google Work Apps and Analytics. I’m using the standard theme. No Child.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Hello Seth,

Thanks for writing in!

To setup Google apps kindly walk-through following thread:

https://community.theme.co/forums/topic/adding-googles-verification-meta-tag/

To implement Google Analytics, kindly use Google Analytics plugin that comes with X theme package.

Thanks.
