Verifying Google Search Console with Tag Manager

[Pierina]

I cannot verify Google Search Console with Tag Manager even though tag manager has been successfully installed. The following keeps appearing “We could not find a Google Tag Manager container ID on the home page of your site.”

Hi Tom,

I used the hooks under element to install google tag manager per your instructions on the generatepress website and it worked, but when i try to verify Google Search Console what I mentioned previously appeared.

Hi there,

It looks like you’re using some sort of HTML caching plugin/service. Can you try turning it off so I can inspect your HTML better?

Just to confirm, you’ve followed these instructions?: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/implement-google-tag-manager/

Let me know 🙂

Hi Tom,

I just disabled/deactivated everything with the word cache! I have a managed wordpress website since I’m new to all of this.

Thanks!

Everything looks correct on the code side of things.

Perhaps this will help?: https://get.google.com/tagassistant/

Hi Tom,

I already have this and know that Google Tag Manager works. I have already set up Google analytics through it. My only problem is verifying Google Search Console through Google Tag Manager. When I do the intital set up and verification for Google Search Console through Google Tag Manager it will not verify.

Tom,

It worked now! I guess I just had to disable cache plug ins.

Glad it’s working 🙂
