Hello,
I have tried 4 times to have Pinterest validate my website so I can “claim” it. I watched the wordpress.org video, several times, on how to accomplish this. Nothing works. Yes, tried using SOE Yoast to enter the code.
I got this message from Pinterest, “We couldn’t find the HTML meta tag or verification file on your site. Be sure to paste the HTML meta tag in the <head> section of your site’s homepage, or upload the verification file to your site’s root directory. Try again or get help.”
How do I “paste the HTML meta tag in the <head> section of your site’s homepage?” What steps do I take?
Could the problem be that my site is not yet live?
Thank you for your help.

Hi there,
Try using the wp_head hook with hooks element:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/hooks-element-overview/Let me know if this helps 🙂

As I said in another Support Forum question, I can’t find “Elements” under the Appearance menu to make any changes. I am using GP Premium Classic and that option does not show up. Any idea what’s wrong?
Thank you, Leo. I’ll take a look. I appreciate your help.
No problem 🙂

Adding CSS: http://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-css/What do I set the Display Rules to, please? It says to “Paste this tag into the <head> section of your site’s index.html file.”
Try the entire site.

Adding CSS: http://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-css/Does the hook go into the wp_head setting or where/which setting? It says to “Paste this tag into the <head> section of your site’s index.html file,” but I don’t know where that is. Can you direct me, please?
wp_headhook does go into the<head>section of your site:

wp_headhook should work.Documentation: http://docs.generatepress.com/
Adding CSS: http://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-css/Thank you and done. I’ll close out this help ticket once Pinterest confirms validation of my site.
I wanted to add that I truly do appreciate you all for the help and guidance you offer me.
No problem!
I’m not sure if your site needs to be live for them to validate – that’s something you’d need to check with their support.

Adding CSS: http://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-css/I’m not sure I should reply to this thread or open a new one. Beside that, I’m having the same problem as the OP. However, I tried the above mention and it doesn’t work.
I am going to try to explain this as detail as possible:
1) The type of element is hook
2) The location is the entire site
3) In the setting category, the Hook is WP_Head
4) In the Display Rule, the location is set to Entire SiteHere are the screenshots
