insert google tags to

  • Hello,can you tell me how to add code to those 3 categories?
    -in the <head> of the page
    -after the opening <body> tag
    -in your website’s global footer, right above the closing HTML <body> tag.

    I inserted the first google tag to header.php after <head> and saved it but nothing happened

    Thank you

  • Your answer depends upon the details of your theme.
    Look at your theme files and see how it assembles your website’s pages, in your theme folder you will likely have a file “header.php”, it will produce your “<head>” tag, and then call a hook function such as “afterhead();” (or similar), or maybe just “wp_head();”. See how it is defined, it will tell you how to add a function to this hook. Similarly after the “<body>” tag it calls “wp_body_open();”.
    In each case find the hook that is invoked in that context. Now add functions to these hooks, could be done in a plugin, but more likely in the theme’s “functions.php” file, to do this properly you need to be working in a child theme, details here:

    I have given specifics for the twentynineteen theme, the specifics may vary.
