Is the GTA code showing up on every page in Webflow due to an issue on my end or do my clients need to do something with Google and their site verification?

The GTA code (Google Tag Assistant) showing up on every page in Webflow could be due to a few different reasons. Here are some possible explanations and troubleshooting steps to follow:
- Verification issue:
- Make sure that your clients have completed the site verification process with Google. This typically involves adding a meta tag or uploading an HTML file provided by Google to the Webflow site's root folder.
- Check that your clients have selected the correct verification method in the Google Search Console and have confirmed the verification status.
- Integration issue:
- Ensure that the Google Analytics or Google Tag Manager code has been properly added to your Webflow site.
- Check that the code is added to the correct place in the site settings or within the custom code section of the project settings.
- Verify that the code is correctly entered, without any syntax errors or missing characters.
- Page template issue:
- If you are using a global or master page template in Webflow, make sure that the code is added only once in the template and not duplicated across multiple pages.
- Check that there are no additional code snippets or external scripts that are inadvertently adding the GTA code to every page. Remove any redundant or conflicting code.
- Cache issue:
- Clear the cache of your browser and test the site again. Sometimes, cached versions of the site can show outdated code or incorrect data. Use the incognito mode of your browser or try a different browser to rule out any caching issues.
- Third-party applications or plugins:
- If you have integrated any third-party applications or plugins into your Webflow site, check their settings to ensure that they are not injecting the GTA code on every page unintentionally.
- Disable any recently added plugins or applications temporarily to see if the GTM code disappears when they are deactivated.
By following these troubleshooting steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the GTA code showing up on every page in Webflow and resolve the issue accordingly. Ensure that you have all the necessary permissions and access rights to make changes to the Webflow site and associated Google accounts.
