Thanks to everyone for the answers, the solution with the tag worked well, but I didn't get to test it in the public folder |

@henriquematiasb @carloscuesta @rafaelalmeidatk I am using the nextjs 13.4 metatag the header is created and do contain all of the attributes and tags but once I try to do the Google verification from the console search it does not work, I've even try using the next/head component and the google html file still failing to verify 😔😓 any idea? export const metadata: Metadata = { |

Just jumping in here to say that the /public/ folder method worked a treat for me. |

Yes can easily verify using the meta tag approach by implementing in in the page.js or tsx file (not the layout file) like this below>export const metadata = { |

FIXED. I was also putting google-site-verification after the " = " sign, for example, when you add the site verificaiton (with autofill from cursor or copilot), it autofills: export const metadata: Metadata = {
title: SITE_CONFIG.title,
description: SITE_CONFIG.description,
verification: {
// THE PROBLEM IS HERE !!
google: "google-site-verification=1234567890",
},
}Naturally you would add "google-site-verification={your code}", but that is the problem, you must replace the ENTIRE text, for example: export const metadata: Metadata = {
title: SITE_CONFIG.title ,
description: SITE_CONFIG.description,
verification: {
google: "o28TGr-Eb2O0IqA0xTHvwSSqOhzLrafIFGQO080bAAA",
},
}AND make sure you have clicked meta tag before clicking verify. |
