Hi @jennifer254,

WPCode outputs your snippet code exactly as you paste it, so we don’t automatically add async or defer to script tags. If you’d like a script to load asynchronously, you’ll want to add async or defer directly to the tag yourself, like <script async src=”https://example.com/pixel.js“></script>.

One thing worth mentioning, for external scripts where you want to control attributes like async or defer, you’ll want to use an HTML snippet rather than a JavaScript snippet. JavaScript snippets are automatically wrapped in <script> tags at execution time, so you can’t set attributes on that tag yourself. With an HTML snippet, you can include the full <script> tag and any attributes you need.

Let me know if I can provide more info!

Thanks,

Hi @tammy65,

Yes, you can absolutely do this with the free version. WPCode’s Smart Conditional Logic includes a page type rule that lets you target the homepage specifically.

So for your widget script, you’d create the snippet as usual, then under the Smart Conditional Logic section toggle “Enable Logic” on and add a rule to target the front page only.

For reference, please check the following screenshot: https://quicksnip.com/s/cjfp112tsm55hds

Let me know if you run into any issues setting it up.

Hi @zane97,

Thanks for the kind words!

With the free version, saving your own custom snippets to a personal collection isn’t possible.

This is available in WPCode Pro, which includes a feature called My Library: once your site is connected to your WPCode account, you can save any custom snippet to your personal cloud library and deploy it on your other connected sites with a single click. This feature is available in any subscription plan.

That said, the free version does include export/import for snippets, so you
can easily move them between sites or keep local backups by exporting from one site and importing on another.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks,

Hi @mariel442,

It really depends on what the source recommends, so I’d suggest checking their instructions and placing the code wherever they specify. In general, though, there’s no real benefit to using one over the other for a small verification code.

Most verification providers (Google Search Console, Bing, Pinterest, etc.) specifically ask for the code to be placed in the section, in which case you’d want to use the Header field.

Hi @pineapplepalm,

WPCode does not use JSONP. If you see rest_jsonp_enabled when searching the codebase, that’s simply a WordPress hook name included in our Hooks Generator list (a label used in a dropdown), not something WPCode depends on at runtime. Disabling JSONP on your site will not affect WPCode.

WPCode does not currently include a built-in option (similar to DISALLOW_FILE_MODS) to lock snippet creation and editing across the board. This can be achieved with custom code, so please contact us and we’ll help you set it up: https://wpcode.com/contact.

Hi @braedenmayer,

The best way to do this is to move the script into its own snippet since Header & Footer always loads site-wide. You’d create a new snippet at Code Snippets > + Add Snippet, and choose HTML as the code type so it outputs exactly as-is and paste the tracking script in.

Under Insertion, set the Auto Insert location to “Site Wide Header“. Then scroll down to Smart Conditional Logic, toggle it on, set the conditional logic type to “Show,” and add a rule group matching the pages you want, for reference, please check the following screenshot: https://quicksnip.com/s/wk86t3s90t2f12k.

Once saved and activated, the snippet will only output in the header on the pages matching your rules, and nowhere else. You can find a full walkthrough here: https://wpcode.com/how-to-add-scripts-to-specific-pages-in-wordpress/

Let me know if you run into any issues setting it up.

Hi @allredjulien2443,

Are you adding this code as a code snippet or through a dedicated Header & Footer area in the plugin? For reference, please check the following screenshot: https://a.supportally.com/i/LPoxtW? If it’s a snippet, is it saved and activated, and does it show as “Active” in your snippets list, like it’s shown on the screenshot: https://a.supportally.com/i/p7yAgU?

If that all checks out, the next most common cause is caching. If you’re using a caching plugin, a CDN, or your host has server-level caching enabled, please purge/clear all caches and then hard refresh the page (or test in an incognito/private window) to see if the change appears on the frontend.

Thanks,
