Google, HTML How to get rid of it showing

It appears the HS peope are not chiming in for others in the last few days, so let me see if a member on here can help. (Russell ??) On my homepage, I have an html code google sent me years ago to "verify" the site and help with searches.

I have put the code block at the top as they suggested, I have hidden behind the blue header bar, centered it, covered it with a white block on top and moved it to the back - no matter what I do, it shows on the published page at the extreme left. Always visible to the user! I moved it to the very bottom and ----it shows up there and again at the page top.

Not really a problem, but ugly, unprofessional looking, and certainly not necessary for anyone to see. It is here:

https://www.candgcoins.com/ What have I not tried or what have I done wrong?? Thanks all, Greg (I know..one thing would be to delete the code entirely! But..........)

Try enter the html code using "Page Settings". You may have entered the html code using the website editor.

Russell In a html box I have this and it is what I think shows

google-site-verification: google78750cb80948c3d8.html

Via the page set/adv set, at the <head> tag html box is entered the same thing with a prefix: <"meta name =google-site-verification"content= then a string of letter & nymbers ending in />

Means little to me, not sure how it got there,I tried to copy it and paste here, but it would have none of that.

I copied thus google-site-verification: google78750cb80948c3d8.html and then pasted it into the java "margin: 0;">

I edited this to say I got it fixed like it was.

Should I delete the html box? Is it redundant? Thank you for your assistance. Greg

@greg1410 Copy the HTML from the website editor HTML command box.

Copy the HTML from there to the HTML directory using "Page Settings".

Delete the HTML entry from the website editor.

I am lost my man! I have gone to PG settings, Adv Settings, and at the top is: <head> tag html

In the box next to that is: -site <"meta name =google-site-verification"content= CMRP then a string of letter & numbers ending in />

I can't highlight it to copy it! Cursor has no effect - OTHER than I can drag and drop it to.....either the box with:

java script "margin: 0;">java script on unload

So my options are those....as far as I can tell. Only other thing I tried was I deleted the html box...and the words still show at top;left! That must come from the adv settings box, that is the only thing on the page with that text left.

If I edit, and drag that text out of the head tag html box - I may jeopardize search engine results. So.....I am lost on this. Does any of this help you or anyone else to get the text to stop showing? Thanks again, Greg

It appears the ONLY thing I can do in that headtag/html box is--almost nothing. Not typing, cutting, deleting but I can add more by pasting!!

You should have used Page Settings to install the google HTML.

Did you miss the part I wrote. that indicated I deleted the html block with the link? The code that shows at the top left of my index is the code google sent that I installed in the head-html box under page settings.

And the thing still shows at the top left. Hope that helps understand the situation, and leads to a solution. I know I can erase the code in that box,,,but I am thinking it helps with the search engine find.

There may be something in that box or code that forces it to the left, And I don't know what it is. I copied the code,, it is below. Strange. Why is it showing?? Thanks Greg

-site <meta name="google-site-verification" content="CEMRPssxRayoiNz106-T3ksq_USPtDfdyrNeR0lK2W8" /> <title>candgcoins</title> google-site-verification: google78750cb80948c3d8.html-verification: google78750cb80948c3d8google.html

What say ye Russell.....or any other informed soul? Seems like a little lack of tech support on here from HS. You would think they might have someone check in to help solve those other ten problems listed above this one on the forum. I would like an answer to my problem, but I am not really expecting one.
