Hi
Most likely in the header.php file in your theme’s folder /wp-content/themes/{themename} The HTML code is likely to be interspersed with PHP code. There are some plugins that can insert meta tags also, such as All in One SEO.
Thank you for the response. Unfortunately the header.php in /wp-content/themes/ contains no meta tags, neither does the php.header in my webhost file manager. These files are generic. The meta tags only show up in the ‘source’ thus my rationalie for trying to edit the ‘source’ page to correctt those that appear there.
If I use my meta tag plugin, it just adds additional meta tags rather than replacing those already existing in ‘view source’
Again, thanks for your reply.
Hi
If the code is not in header.php, then it is either coming from a plugin, or else from a routine in functions.php
Another possibility is a file that is “included” in header.php. The PHP code would be “include” or “require” and list a file location/filename.
There are no other sources the entries could be coming from.
Thanks very much for the advice. I’ll investigate your suggestions. Again, thanks.
