  WordPress keeps rejecting the meta tag code from Yandex.Webmaster each time I attempt to save the code on WordPress site verification page. Please help.

  Hi there,

  Can you copy from Yandex) and paste (into this support thread) the entire meta tag that they are providing for your site? It should look something like this, but with different numbers that are specific to your Yandex account.

  <meta name="yandex-verification" content="7d71f47e63543e" />

  If you paste in your code we’re happy to take a closer look at why it is not working, thanks
