Add to header
15 replies · Started by Patrik on February 26, 2020
Hi,
Im implementing a GDPR Cookie Concent plugin: secureprivacy.ai
Maybe good to know: Running Wordfence
They are telling me to add a script after the header section.
Im adding this to my header.php file following this guide:
https://knowledgebase.secureprivacy.ai/article/26-how-to-add-automated-blocking-script-on-your-website
But when i trying to enter my site it kind of "freezes" and the popup doesnt show.
Should this be any issues? Im a editing the wrong file?
Many thanks,
Patrik
Hi Patrik,
Don't change internal Theme files they will be lost once you update the Theme when a new version is released.
You should use Hooks if you need to inject any third-party code on your project. https://docs.generatepress.com/article/hooks-element-overview/
Many thanks,
Is it somehow possible to force it to appear directly after <head>?
So:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en-US">
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://app.secureprivacy.ai/script/5e56ea......js"></script>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<link rel="profile" href="https://gmpg.org/xfn/11">
<title>Informator – Informator</title>
Hi there,
So you want that code to be at line 19 here?

There is no hook there unfortunately.
You can copy the file below and paste it into your child theme folder and add the code where desired:

Let me know if this helps :)
Hi Leo,
Thank you!
Actually it must be here, its a cookie concent plugin and this scripts needs to be here so im 100% it auto disables all cookies and stuff automatically
Here: https://prnt.sc/r8p18v
So i really dumb question now, will this replace the active "website" somehow?
Should i search for a file called header.php?
That case the wp_head hook is what you need:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/wp-head/
What was the issue with that?
Ill put it with the wp_head and you will see where it shows :)
give me 2 min
Try using priority 1 and see if that's better.
So i did this:
https://prnt.sc/r8p925
- Not quite sure why its red?
Original script is wrote:
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”https://app.secureprivacy.ai/script/5e56ea……js”></script>
And it ends up here, its at the end:
https://prnt.sc/r8pb9k
Is it the same if you use priority 1 in the hooks element?
If so you will need to copy the file below and paste it into your child theme folder and add the code where desired:
https://github.com/tomusborne/generatepress/blob/master/header.php
Yeah, sad it doesnt work because I dont know nothing about code haha!
Allright, so are you able to quickly tell me where your theme has child theme folder?
And in that folder i place this php file?
Will this overwrite existing code and stuff?
Cause somehow i got bunch of code there
You will need to install a child theme:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/using-child-theme/#installing-a-child-theme
By default there will be a style.css and function.php in that folder.
Then you will want to copy and paste this file:
https://github.com/tomusborne/generatepress/blob/master/header.php
And also name it header.php in the same folder.
Then make the edit there.
Thanks Leo,
Is the link for your documentation correct?
Because it seems like it not working
Also seems like all profile pictures are gone here in forum
That link is definitely correct:
https://www.screencast.com/t/LCHHegmmpAdH
Sounds like you are having some browser issue.
Sorry, my ISP had as you sad technical problems.
So if i copy and paste that header.php will it overwrite all the other code?
