* If I add the official Facebook pixel plugin, the facebook pixel code is added
on amp pages and causes errors. I’m using paired mode. Is there a way to strip
the facebook pixel code from the amp pages or disable that plugin on amp? How
do you recommend adding Facebook Pixel code in wordpress so it doesn’t make amp
pages fail verification? Thanks.

* Is this the plugin you are using? [https://wordpress.org/plugins/official-facebook-pixel/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/official-facebook-pixel/)
* I checked the AMP validator and I see no errors: [https://validator.ampproject.org/#url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ryansmithphotography.com%2Fblog%2F2019%2F01%2F30%2Fbridal-portraits-pawleys-plantation-golf-club%2F%3Famp](https://validator.ampproject.org/#url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ryansmithphotography.com%2Fblog%2F2019%2F01%2F30%2Fbridal-portraits-pawleys-plantation-golf-club%2F%3Famp)
* Are you referring to the internal validation errors in the admin? Is the one
for the Facebook Pixel being flagged along with the status “new accepted”?
* Please share the full details of the validation error. If you can accept it once
and then stays accepted, then that is the easiest solution for you. Otherwise,
if the pixel validation error changes with each request, then am alternative
would be needed.

* Thanks for the reply. Yes that is the plugin, there are no errors currently because
I deactivated it. It causes a number of validation errors on amp pages when the
plugin is activated that are not stripped by your amp plugin like most other
errors are. It seems like it is completely bypassing your sanitation of the amp
pages and loads iframes and other incompatible code. Actually this happens if
I just add the Facebook pixel code in manually as well and not through the plugin.

* Please re-activate the plugin and copy the page source when the validation errors
are present. You can then share the page source via a site like [https://gist.github.com/](https://gist.github.com/)

* OK, this is the offending markup:
* ```
```
* So in the non-AMP version of the page, there is likely this being added to the
head:
* ``
* This is getting unwrapped and converted into `amp-img` in AMP. In any case, it
is not correct to have this in the `head`, so the plugin isn’t adding this in
the right spot.
* Indeed, I can see the `\FacebookPixelPlugin\Core\FacebookWordpressPixelInjection::
injectPixelNoscriptCode()` function is getting added at `wp_head` as opposed
to `wp_footer`, which it should be doing.
* You can find this in `core/FacebookWordpressPixelInjection.php`.
* I suggest contacting the plugin’s maintainer and requesting they change:
* ```
add_action(
'wp_head',
array($this, 'injectPixelNoscriptCode'));
```
* Into:
* ```
add_action(
'wp_footer',
array($this, 'injectPixelNoscriptCode'));
```

* The developer is Facebook so it might be something you would want to work with
them officially on. What I did is I just added the Facebook pixel code in manually.
I had tried adding it to the wp_head before and had the same problems but based
on your suggestion I added it to wp_footer now and it seems to fix the amp issues.
