How do I paste the metatag into my site’s home page? I know it should go in the <head> section, before the first <body> section but I don’t know how to get to the html code? i can’t edit it from the wp editor because that will interfere with the editing done in elementor. Elementor has an html widget but I don’t know how to use it to put the metatag where it belongs.
I’m obvious new to all this.
Hi,
Thanks for getting in touch with us.
To verify your site, head over to Rank math > General settings > Web masters and paste the data into the Google Search Console verification field. If you don’t see the WebMasters option,it is likely you are using the Easy mode of Rank math. You can switch to the Advanced Mode from the top-right corner at WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > Dashboard
Here is a screenshot for reference:
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
I did what you said. However my website does not show up when I try to under the Search Console Profile.
Hello,
Could you share (in the Sensitive Data section) the code you have to add and also the login details so we can check it for you?
To do that, please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.
It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:

You can use the above plugin in conjunction with the WP Security Audit Log to monitor what changes our staff might make on your website (if any):

We really look forward to helping you.
Hello,
I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?

Hello,
I have checked it and everything seems fine but we would need you to try to deauthorize and authorize again the Search Console account in Rank Math. After that, let us know if your issue is solved.
Looking forward to help you.
I’m still not seeing my website in the drop down menu on the Google search console page, which is right below the authorize deauthorize account you mentioned above, which is what I originally started this ticket for. Also I’m not sure if my first question was answered: How to I paste the metatag into my homepage?
Hello,
You seem to have disabled the Search Console module on your site. Can we enbale it and test further?
On your inquiry about metatag. Which metatag do you wish to paste because you seem to have already added the Google verification meta in Rank math > General settings > Webmasters.
Please let us know so we can assist you further.
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
I didn’t know that I desabled the search console module on my site. Yes please enable and test further. thanks.
Hello Michael,
I have checked your search console authorization and it should work fine.
Please head over to Rank math > General Settings > Search Console and authorize your site. Ensure the account you are using is verified for your site in GSC. After authorization, select your site in the drop-down and if it shows empty caches, click on update caches manually and save changes.
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
