Why is it’s always the simple things that we forget?
Each time we launch a new site built in Typo3, we try and set up a Google Webmaster Tools account so that we can analyse it’s performance. But each time, I completely forget the TypoScript code used to add the verify meta tag code provided by google.
So for all those as stupid as me, here’s what you need to do in one easy step:
1. Add this code to the Setup field of your TypoScript template:
page.meta.verify-v1 = YOUR-GOOGLE-CODE-GOES-HERE
How simple is that??

Hi CB,
If you choose “Template” on the left handside, and choose the main page, you should have the main template there.
Choose info/modify from the drop down menu on the right handside – Set Up field is the second input box then.

I don’t get why mine isn’t working… Could it be because I have entered http://www.mydomain.com as the website, but the homepage is actually http://www.mydomain.com/mydomain
??
Thanks…
