Title: Theme breakage on code install on header.php Last modified: March 19, 2019 --- # Theme breakage on code install on header.php * [samlindner19](https://wordpress.org/support/users/samlindner19/) * (@samlindner19) * [7 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-breakage-on-code-install-on-header-php/) * Hi. I have previously added the Tag Manager code correctly and successfully on a different website simply by adding the code to the body tag of the header.php through the WP Admin Editor. It worked 100% fine. However I am having trouble on another theme for a different site (above). When trying to add it it seems to be breaker the header.php and I have to reload the previous version through the hosting admin file manager. It must be something to do with the theme. I am adding it to the parent theme (as the child theme has no header.php). The following is the code presently on the header.php, would you have a recommendation as to what is going on and where it should be exactly placed? As I have tried 3 locations and all breaks it.: * > itemscope itemtype=”[http://schema.org/WebPage”>](http://schema.org/WebPage”>); *

I pasted it via the File Manager through my hosting admin panel instead of the header.php file through the WP Admin area and it seems to be stable now! Fingers crossed. Will mark as solved as soon as I finish some other testing. * Plugin Author [Thomas Geiger](https://wordpress.org/support/users/duracelltomi/) * (@duracelltomi) * [7 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-breakage-on-code-install-on-header-php/#post-11328860) * Great to see you managed to add the necessary code 🙂 Let me know if it works now!
