I think I’m having a few issues here. First, I have a warning sign saying my xml configuration between Google XML and SEO Yoast need to be reconfigured?
I try verifying my my website through Google Webmaster Tools, enter the meta data tag into the header.php file, save it. Go to the Google Webmaster page to verify the site and then get an error message saying it couldn’t find the information…
Also I was reading around some things and noticed my header.php file doesn’t have any title tags ( most everything I’m reading says it should?).
Any information would be great!
Thanks,
Anson
]]>I am unable to verify my google webmaster tools and have tried the following ways on my site www.garysideas.com:
1) Installed Plugin Google Webmaster Tools and copy/paste the meta info and saved (still wont’ Verify)
2) Copied the meta tag info and pasted it in the site’s homepage by going Dashboard/Appearance/Editor/Header. Here’s where I put it (am I doing this wrong?):
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns=”https://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml” <?php language_attributes(); ?>>
<head>
<meta name=”google-site-verification” content=”h6DET5fVZMNY4S2eiwN8THQLjtco6K_–1KC6SjQvxI” />
<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″ />
<title><?php ui::title(); ?>Gary Alipio’s Ideas</title>
<link rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” href=”<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_url’); ?>” media=”screen” />
<link rel=”pingback” href=”<?php bloginfo(‘pingback_url’); ?>” />

<link href=’https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Droid+Sans’ rel=’stylesheet’ type=’text/css’>
<?php wp_head(); ?>
<?php if (is_home() && option::get(‘featured_posts_show’) == ‘on’ || get_post_type() == ‘portfolio’) { ui::js(“slides”); } ?>
<meta name=”google-site-verification” content=”h6DET5fVZMNY4S2eiwN8THQLjtco6K_–1KC6SjQvxI” />
</head>
PLEASE ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED

]]>I am using Jobroller Theme.
I can’t find the “Home” page. It’s not titled home page. I’m in the editor and I’m trying to find the file type in there. I attempted to edit the header.php file and that didn’t work.
This is what it says to do:
1. Copy the meta tag below, and paste it into your site’s home page. It should go in the <head> section, before the first <body> section.
Show me an example
<html>
<head>
<meta name=”google-site-verification” content=”GvEWbJFahhZBUTfLvCYFZMAyAgNl4Lu_wSnLZFNQCL0″ />
<title> My title </title>
</head>
<body>
page contents
</body>
</html>
2. Click Verify below.
To stay verified, don’t remove the meta tag, even after verification succeeds.
I would really appreciate someone helping me.
Thank you!
]]>I’m using the plugin Google Webmaster Tools but can’t get my site www.fearofflyingnomore.com to verify
I am getting the following message:
“Reverification failed. We were unable to connect to your server.”
I also have the Google Analytics plugin installed and have tried to verify that way.
The only thing I can think of is that I had the site as https://fearofflyingnomore.com in my settings. Would the absence of the “www” make the difference?
Any help appreciated 
Georgina

I have tried everything to get my blog verified but it has not worked. I have tried copy pasting the code (HTML) on a new page title and publishing it. But my goolge webmaster verify still says it can’t find the page 404 error.
I have tried variations such as copy pasting the html code.html , codehtml etc. But still it does not work.
I wonder if this is because of my PERMALINK structure. What PERMALINK structure should I use ? The default WordPress one or numeric or custom. Can someone help me with this?
thanks,
