Meta tag only in start page

[iTurtle]

hi there,
i could not find information in the forum how to add a meta tag only in one page. in my case this code (added spaces after the brackets)
<meta name="google-site-verification" content="XXXXX"/>
only in the start page of the website.
any help would be very appreciated, thanks a lot, kai

Hello Kai,

Thanks for getting back to us. There isn’t an option where you can insert the meta tag for the homepage only. It has to be coded manually instead. Kindly check this old thread:

• How do I add Youtube verification code to my site's home page?

While the thread adds the code for the entire site, you will have to add a is_home() condition that it will be displayed on the homepage only. Check out this other old thread for your reference:

• Adding a script to functions.php
• How can I add a custom JSON script to ONLY the homepage header?

Hope this makes sense.
