    Adding VigLink verification code

    I need to add the VigLink verification code back into my forum since it was migrated to the Cloud this week.

    How do I do this?

    Thanks

    In the AdminCP go to Settings -> Options -> Search Engine Tools. Turn Google Verification on and paste your code in the box where Google's code goes. If you already have a Google Meta Tag code, just put the Viglink code on a new link.

        The VigLink code was Javascript so I had to put it in the Google Analytics box and it works fine but what do I do if I want to add Google Analytics as well? Is it possible to have both?

          Yes add both. Note that in Google Analytics setting, the <script></script> tags should not be included.

            Thanks Glenn. It works fine having both Vig Link and Google Analytics in there.

            Just for information but when I tried Vig Link and StatCounter together in there it broke my Site Builder admin. All my buttons at the top of the forum for site builder were greyed out and I couldn't click them. Took out the StatCounter code and it went back to normal.

            I'm happy using Google Analytics so not a problem, but thought I would mention it. (I did take out the <script> </script> from the Statcounter code)

              On Cloud, I suggest putting StatCounter in an Advertising block in one of your header advertising slots.
