    Hello,can you tell me how to add code to those 3 categories?
    -in the <head> of the page
    -after the opening <body> tag
    -in your website’s global footer, right above the closing HTML <body> tag.

    I inserted the first google tag to header.php after <head> and saved it but nothing happened

    Thank you

    Your answer depends upon the details of your theme.
    Look at your theme files and see how it assembles your website’s pages, in your theme folder you will likely have a file “header.php”, it will produce your “<head>” tag, and then call a hook function such as “afterhead();” (or similar), or maybe just “wp_head();”. See how it is defined, it will tell you how to add a function to this hook. Similarly after the “<body>” tag it calls “wp_body_open();”.
    In each case find the hook that is invoked in that context. Now add functions to these hooks, could be done in a plugin, but more likely in the theme’s “functions.php” file, to do this properly you need to be working in a child theme, details here:

    I have given specifics for the twentynineteen theme, the specifics may vary.
