Home page validation

What would be the easiest way for me to insert some code into my home page to prove that I own it? Thanks

Re: Home page validation

Unless I don't understand the question, the copyright statement in the footer should take care of that.

Re: Home page validation

I need to hide some code for a bot to check that I am the owner.

If you're talking about Google's site verification code ...

<meta name="google-site-verification" content="your_code_value" />

Upload this new file into your custom template folder's jscript folder, like so:
/includes/template/YOURTEMPLATE/jscript/jscript_googleverify.php

This will cause that file's contents to be displayed inside the <head> tag of your site ... and you won't have to touch the default html_header.php file, making upgrades simpler !

NOTE: the version of Zen Cart you are using is vulnerable to serious security issues and you need to upgrade immediately.
