I’m pretty basic with code, etc so plugin was the most attractive option (from what I read). Can you please advise my next best step here?
Thank you. Fran
Okay, Ive been working on this problem for over an hour so Im hoping someone can help me out. I know there’s other questions on this forum related to this but haven’t been able to find an answer for my specific situation.
First off, here’s the site: https://www.dontforgettomove.com
I’m trying to set my website up on google verification to use Google Webmaster Tools so I used the HTML meta tag and pasted it into my header. Then a thing popped up on my site that said “paste your google verification code here.”
So I deleted the code to make that text go away. But the text is still there! Is it possible I missed part of it? The beginning of my header in the Editor reads like this:
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>" />
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" />Also, since I deleted that portion will I still be verified? Google Webmaster says I’m verified at the moment and I can see the data but will they de-verify me because the tag is gone?
And, since I’m at it, I’m trying to create a sitemap for my site and when I tried to access it in the plugin, it says I already have a sitemap. Does every site come automatically with one? When I try to sign in at the bottom of the plugin to my Google account, it says my login info is wrong. But Im 100% sure thats my login & pw.
Okay, hope this wasn’t too many questions. If anyone can help with any of them, it would be much appreciated! Stumbling through this stuff is like learning to read again.
Thanks!

]]>I have read the FAQs and checked for similar issues: YES / NO NO- plenty of wordpress forum help topics
My site’s URL (web address) is: www.tampabayappraisers.com
Description (including timeline of any changes made):
Website is not working properly. I went into www.tampabayappraisers.com/wp-admin
then into EDITOR on the left side under THEMES. I put the google verification code in the BODY below HEAD and above TITLE.
Then I updated and the website was wrong. I tried using another code but it did not work. I have the most updated version. I am doing my best but keep coming up empty handed. GoDaddy.com tried to restore to an earlier date but that didn’t work. Can I try to verify my site with an HTML file? Please and many thanks in advance.
