yeah you are right they want it in the <head> section. my problem is I dont know how to access the <head> section. I have a free template theme from wordpress. Is there a way to add code to these types of themes?
Can be easier to use the html file upload option rather than edit header.php; that’s where you download a simple html file from the Google Tools verification page and then upload it via FTP.
In the past 8 months there have been multiple upgrades of WordPress but nothing that has changed the Appearance sub-menu. Is this a self-hosted blog or a wordpress.com site?
It’s a wordpress.com site.. I’m using the free Black-LetterHead theme.
Appearance menu has Themes, Widgets, Menus, Extras, Background, Header, TypeKit Fonts and Edit CSS – none of these pages show an “editor” function, nor do I see anything on those pages referencing meta code.
You cannot access the theme template files on wordpress.com sites. And as this forum is for self-hosted WordPress sites, please try asking any further questions on https://en.forums.wordpress.com/
