I am using Version 1.5.2.7 and still have this issue. I am trying to verify my site in Alexa for the first time and have entered the meta value, saved changes, and received the error message “We could not find the verification ID on your homepage. Please add the verification id to the <head></head> section of the HTML of your homepage.” Am I missing something?? If I still have to manually upload the file to my server, I really don’t see how the Webmaster Tools function of SEO by Yoast is helpful. Any suggestions?
