    I’m trying to sumit my sitemap to Bing, and Bing seems unable to verify the site. I have tried adding the code provided by Bing to my header file, and I have also tried via the Yoast plugin. The message I get is the same in both cases:

    “Body tag not found: make sure you place the verification tag with the correct verification key [my verification key] in the <head> section and before the <body> tag in your page.”

    I tried in 2 different browsers, too (Chrome and Firefox)

    So what’s going wrong and how can I get Bing to verify the site?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    The verification code is in there 2 times. This is probably the cause of the problem. Remove one issue and try again.
