Schema Code appearing on top of every page

  • Hi
    I set up Google Tag Manager yesterday for my website. But as soon as I did that, some text “itemtype=”https://schema.org/WebPage” itemscope>” started appearing on every page of my site.
    I don’t have much knowledge of coding. Can someone please guide me step by step about how can I can fix it?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi there,

    Can you share the code you added/how you added it when you set up GTM?

    I added it in my header.php file after <head> and <body> as instructed in GTM. Complete code of my header looks like this:
    `<?php
    /**
    * The template for displaying the header.
    *
    * @package GeneratePress
    */

    if ( ! defined( ‘ABSPATH’ ) ) {
    exit; // Exit if accessed directly.
    }

    Never a good idea to edit the theme files as it will be erased during updates.

    Try this instead:

    add_action( 'wp_head', function() {
?>
// Add your code here 
<?php
});

    And replace // Add your code here with the actual script copy from Google.

    The PHP snippet above can be added using one of these methods:
    Adding PHP: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/

    The Code Snippets plugin is the easiest solution ??

    Also make sure you revert the header.php file back to the original state:

    @leohsiang And how to insert code after body tag?

    Leo

    (@leohsiang)

    I assume you meant right before the end of body tag?

    If so this should work:

    add_action( 'wp_footer', function() {
?>
// Add your code here 
<?php
});
