How can I add HTML tag to Prestige theme head section for Google Merchant Center verification?

Hi,

I need to verify my domain in Google Merchant Center, and I have to add to HTML Tag to the head section before the body section.

The problem is that I can’t find the head section in the prestige theme code.

I tried to paste it everywhere and it keep saying that it’s in the wrong location.

Can someone help? @Shopify_77

Hey there, @Amy54 . Thanks for reaching out to the Community!

I thought I could jump in here to provide you with some support! You’re using a third-party theme (Prestige) but adding the needed code here isn’t too different that often from our Shopify made themes! I’ll give you some information below.

The ‘head’ section of your theme should be found in the theme.liquid folder of your theme in the theme editor. You can find this folder under the larger layouts folder that appears when you click into 'edit code’. I have a screenshot below of how the head section might appear in your theme:

There’s a chance you’re using a very customized theme, so this ‘head’ section may appear differently, or read differently than what is shown above. You can actually download a fresh version of your theme to your store, place the code into the head section of that theme, and once the domain is verified, switch things back over.

To set some expectations, Shopify Support Staff is trained in coding, so we don’t provide direct instructions on where/how to add coding. However, we know a lot of folks struggle with adding this tag to their ‘head’ section, so we do jump in to assist here when we can. If you like, you can reach out to our Live Team for some real-time assistance with this.

Of course, there is a chance that one of the many Shopify Partners and Experts that browse the Community may jump in here with some direct instructions. You have lots of avenues to get some support!

Hi @Imogen_1 , thanks for your reply.

Before I placed my question I tried already what you explained (with the screenshot) but didn’t find it.

Here is what I did:

I created this and placed the tag and it worked well and my domain is verified.

Thanks for your help I appreciate it.
