Google needs me to add an HTML tag to the homepage in the <head>. The Analytics code will not verify for whatever reason so trying to add this code to get Google's approval. Can anyone tell me what template it should go into?
Using Retina theme.

This is an accepted solution.
Hello,
You will add this to your theme.liquid file so it displays on every page.
Online Store > Themes > Actions > Edit Code. In the top folder, you will see theme.liquid. Add it between the <head></head> tags.

Thanks
thank you
so anywhere after <head> on line 3? Can you be specific pls some ppl don't know codes
Oh i got it my bad. from Line 3 to 190 is considered <head></head> tags. The line 3 shows all tags under it.
my screen is sorta damaged around the area so couldn't properly see it
Mine didn't work .. added to theme liquid line 3 where <head> is and still nothing..
Am I ok to remove the html tag after google claimed my website?
I think do not remove it. There is no reason to. Keep it there and Google verifies it. There's no "bad thing" that happens which extra meta tags
tem como por no plano starter?
can you PLEASE post video on how to do it?
can someone please tell me what "it" is? and provide an example? thanks.
The "it" is the Google tag that Google provides. You get that and place it in the <head> section of the shopify site.
It shows that you are the owner of the shopify site since you need to be an admin to manipulate the code content of your website. This puts a unique code that Google know is yours in there.
e.g.
<meta name="google-site-verification" content="8rk9vKv1-0293481029809-a8df90a-sf8da0s9dfja;sdfjTCE" />
Don't see actions in online store > themes >. There is customize and plans.
