Issues with Search Console Verification [Willow Theme]

    We just switched our site to a new theme (Willow by Solo Pine) today, and are having an problem getting verified with Google Search Console.

    I’ve tried using meta tags in header.php, as well as verifying through the Yoast SEO plugin and Google Analytics. Nothing has worked so far.

    I had the same issue with Bing, but after removing the meta tags for Bing & Google and putting them back in header.php then Bing was able to verify.

    I’ll post the code in header.php below.

    Is it possible that trying to verify through Yoast, and then putting in the meta tags created a conflict? Or could this be related to the new theme we are using?

    Very grateful for any help on this. Here’s the code:

    “<!DOCTYPE html>
    <html <?php language_attributes(); ?> class=””>

    <head>
    <meta charset=”<?php bloginfo(‘charset’); ?>” />
    <meta name=”viewport” content=”width=device-width, initial-scale=1″>
    <meta name=”apple-mobile-web-app-capable” content=”yes”>
    <meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=edge” />
    <meta name=”google-site-verification” content=”pK0Kv6HasMQtoy5EcC4YHO8RYJrVLYLUFW3Bbo8k8-c” />
    <meta name=”msvalidate.01″ content=”762A66CF54A61EAF4408CBE9E85F5CE3″ />
    <title>
    <?php wp_title( ‘|’, true, ‘right’ ); ?>
    </title>”
