På WPBeginner skriver vi många handledningar som kräver att du infogar kod i avsnitten <header> eller <footer> på din WordPress-webbplats. Detta kan kännas som en skrämmande uppgift, särskilt eftersom WordPress inte tillhandahåller ett inbyggt alternativ för att lägga till kodsnuttar i sidhuvudet och sidfoten.
Men att lägga till header- och footer-kod i WordPress är nödvändigt när man försöker integrera med webbtjänster som Google Analytics, Google Search Console, Facebook Pixel och mer.
Du kan också stöta på WordPress-handledning som ber dig att lägga till lite anpassad CSS- eller JavaScript-kod till din WordPress-huvud- eller sidfot.
Lyckligtvis finns det en enkel lösning för nybörjare. Med det kostnadsfria WPCode Free Plugin kan du lägga till koden på ett säkert sätt utan att direkt redigera dina WordPress Temafiler.
I den här artikeln visar vi hur du enkelt kan lägga till sidhuvud- och sidfotskod i WordPress.
Det bästa sättet att add to WordPress Header och Footer kod
Om du vill add to WordPress header- och footer-kod finns det tre möjliga lösningar:
- Manuellt, genom att editera ditt temas header.php och footer.php filer
- Med ditt temas built-in header- och footer-kodfunktion
- Använda ett plugin för WordPress
Det första alternativet är inte nybörjarvänligt eftersom det kräver att du lägger till header- och footer-kod genom att direkt redigera header.php- och footer.php-filerna manuellt.
En annan nackdel med att använda den här metoden är att din kod kommer att tas bort om du installerar en update till ditt theme.
Det andra alternativet är att använda ditt temas utvalda funktion. Vissa WordPress teman gillar Elegant Themes och Genesis Framework av StudioPress erbjuder ett built-in alternativ för att snabbt lägga till kod och skript till din WordPress header och footer.
Om du använder ett theme med en utvald funktion så gillar du en säker och enkel lösning. Men om du ändrar ditt theme kommer alla code snippets som lagts till på din website att försvinna. Detta inkluderar verifiering av site i Google Search Console, webbplatsanalys via Google Analytics och så vidare.
Det är därför vi alltid rekommenderar användare att använda det tredje alternativet, ett plugin för headers och footers. Detta alternativ är den överlägset enklaste och säkraste metoden att add to header och footer kod i WordPress.
Efter många requests från Läsare, har vårt team byggt WPCode plugin.
WPCode (tidigare Insert Rubriker and Footers) är ett 100% gratis code snippet plugin. Du kan använda det för att enkelt lägga till kod i header och footer i WordPress.
Här är några fördelar med att använda WPCode plugin:
1. Enkelt, snabbt och organiserat: Du kan enkelt och snabbt lägga till kod i sidhuvudet och sidfoten på din webbplats. Dessutom håller det dig organiserad genom att låta dig lagra alla dina sidfot- och sidhuvudkoder på ett ställe.
2. Förhindrar error: Den smarta bekräftelsen av code snippets hjälper till att förhindra error som kan uppstå om du redigerar dina theme-filer manuellt.
3. Upgrade eller ändra ditt tema utan oro: Pluginet kommer att save din header och footer kod på en separat plats, så att du kan uppdatera eller ändra ditt tema utan att oroa dig för att koden raderas.
Notis: Förutom skript för header och footer kan du också använda WPCode för att enkelt infoga customizer PHP, JavaScript, CSS, HTML och text code snippets utan att editera dina temafiler.
Dessutom har WPCode ett built-in snippets-bibliotek där du kan hitta alla de mest användbara WordPress-kod snippets. Detta allow dig att snabbt ta bort WordPress funktioner som du inte vill ha gillar automatiska updates, REST API, XML-RPC, comments, och mer.
Note: Om du vill ha avancerade funktioner som ett privat moln snippet bibliotek, konvertering Pixels, tidsinställda snippets, code revisioner, och mer, kan du uppgradera till WPCode Pro.

Video Tutorial
Om du inte vill titta på tutorialen på video, kan du fortsätta att läsa textversionen under:
Lägga till kod i Header och Footer i WordPress
Det första du behöver göra är att installera och aktivera det gratis pluginet WPCode. För mer detaljer, se vår steg-för-steg guide om hur du installerar ett WordPress plugin.
När pluginet är aktiverat, gå till Code Snippets ” Header & Footer från din WordPress adminpanel. Efter det kommer du att se en ”Header” box där du kan add to your kod.
Om du rullar ner ser du också en box för ”Body” och en box för ”Footer”.
Klistra bara in koden i en av de tre boxarna. När du är klar, glöm inte att clicka på knappen ”Save Changes” för att store dina inställningar.
Pluginet kommer nu automatiskt att hämta koden på respektive location på din WordPress site.
You can always edit and remove any code that you don’t want to keep.
Du måste hålla pluginet installerat och aktiverat hela tiden. Deactivate plugin kommer att sluta lägga till all custom code till din site.
Om du av misstag deaktiverar pluginet kommer koden fortfarande att vara säkert lagrad i din WordPress database. You can simply reinstall or reactivate the plugin, and the code will start starting appearance again.
Note: Du kan behöva clear din WordPress-cache efter att du har sparat ändringarna, så att koden visas korrekt on the front end på din website.
Vi har funnit att den största anledningen till att många Beginnare använder WPCode plugin är att add Google Analytics till sin website. För det rekommenderar vi faktiskt att du använder det gratis pluginet MonsterInsights.
MonsterInsights är det bästa Google Analytics-pluginet för WordPress. Det hjälper dig att korrekt ställa in Google Analytics tracking med bara några clicks, och det visar dig användbar statistik direkt i din WordPress dashboard.

Ever since I have used wpcode on my website, it has reduced many troubles of messing with the functions.php file.
I remember messing with the code back in 2017 and it was horrible.
wpcode makes it easy not only to insert the code snippets but also it helps in easy maintenance.
Moreover, it gives power to avoid lots of plugins to get small functionalities.
Mrteesurez
Thanks for this guide.
Although adding code to the header and footer was once a big problem for me as I am afraid to loose the custom code when updating my theme, I then created a child theme for this but it was somehow technical.
Now, I am using WPcode to add the code and implement other custom codes with ease, it’s even faster as there are some ready made custom code in WPcode itself. The plugin is very useful, thanks.
WPBeginner Support
Glad to hear you found the plugin helpful!

I’ve been using the WpCode plugin for several years and it’s really great. Especially for newbies who are afraid to insert codes into the website. This plugin is almost a must on every website. It can really save a lot of work and here on wpbeginner there are a lot of ready-made solutions.

Hello
I’ve installed the WPCode plugin and I’ve inserted code in the header field in the ”Global Header and Footer” tab. This code shows a popup.
The website is multisite and WPCode is activated on all the network.
The popup shows well in the home page of my website, but not on other pages where people can land after searching in Google.
What I’ve to do to get the popup showing on any page ?
Thanks
WPBeginner Support
Just to be certain, does your theme have a style for your other pages that uses a different header or removes the header?
Administratör
Viney Bhatia
Is there any way to hide the header or footer code for some posts/pages?

How many codes we can add in single header or footer section, I mean can i use two or three codes in single header section like facebook code google code etc.

As long as the code is added properly and you’re not placing code within other blocks of code you can add as many as you would like.

Hello, I added the code and clicked save. Nothing happened. Is there a publish button I need to press?
WPBeginner Support
It would depend on the code you added as not all code has a visible component, you may also want to try clearing any caching on your site for another common reason for not seeing any change on a site.

Hi — Quick question. I’ve installed the plugin. Is there a way to select which pages the header and footer show up on? All I see is a global install without the ability to select pages. Thanks!
WPBeginner Support
At the moment the plugin is for adding code to your site’s header and not showing/hiding your header. Your theme’s templates would decide where your header and footer show on your site.
Administratör
Pierre Patenaude
I have installed the plugin (and it shows as being activated in the plugin list) but it doesn’t show up in the ”Settings” menu. Did I miss a step? Could you provide a solution?
Thanks
WPBeginner Support
No, the option should be available once the plugin is active as long as you have access to edit the site’s settings, you would want to ensure you are an admin on the site and if it is still not visible you would want to try disabling your other plugins to see if it is possibly a conflict with one of those plugins.

Hi! I have a question! I am trying to add the global site tag and phone snippet to my code on each page so I can track my google ad calls. I have the ”Headers and Footers” plugin, can I just paste it here and I am good? Or does it matter where I post it (Header vs. Body. Footer)? Thanks so much!
WPBeginner Support
For ad code, it is recommended to place the code in the header, you can see more about that in our article below:

So close to being what’s needed! But Google strongly recommends using different metadata for every page. ”Identical or similar descriptions on every page of a site aren’t helpful when individual pages appear in the web results. In these cases we’re less likely to display the boilerplate text. Wherever possible, create descriptions that accurately describe the specific page. ” Please consider updating your plugin accordingly.
WPBeginner Support
Our plugin is not for metadata, it is mainly for code to add things like Google Analytics tracking or for verification codes. If you want a plugin for adding metadata to individual posts, we would recommend taking a look at All in One SEO as that will give you far better control over your metadata

It would depend on the specific code you are adding, we would recommend checking with the support for the code for if you added it correctly as not all code is made to have something visible.

How can add the code in the header as high as possible? I need to put Code first of few lines in the header. How can I control the position of the code?

If you need a very specific location for the code, you would want to manually add the code to your files.

USELESS for a theme that does not have headers in the first place, like wordpress 2021. Useless.
It was implied that this plugin would do that. It. Does. Not. ALL it does in insert a GIANT version of the picture you choose ABOVE your menu and site name.
WPBeginner Support
The 2021 theme does have a header but, the Insert Headers and Footers plugin is for inserting code such as Google Analytics, not for adding photos to the header of your website. We would not recommend using this plugin for adding a header image as that would cause the errors you are running into.

I am getting the following error when hitting SAVE from this plug-in:
A potentially unsafe operation has been detected in your request to this site

On your demonstration you didn’t have anything come up on the top.
This is the instructions from the code generator I am using;
Paste the copied code into bottom of your HTML page just before the closing tag
I tested the code and it does not work, ”Am I doing something different? ”
WPBeginner Support
We would first recommend reaching out to the support of what has generated the code to ensure there isn’t anything specific about the code that needs to be set on your page for it to work correctly.

Yes thank you, good idea.

Unless I hear otherwise, we do not have a recommended method for page specific code at this time.
