Verbiage Cleanup: Please revisit verbiage on Pinterest tab

[garretthyder]

Hello,

I just wanted to point out the confusing verbiage on the Pinterest Settings tab;

Specifically this line;

To confirm your site with Pinterest, add the meta tag here:

This is confusing in that if you place the full meta tag (<meta name=“p:domain_verify” content=“d7afd0e361b04474a5e54308b7471e26"/>) then it won't work cause it'll do an inception thingy of placing the meta-tag within a meta tag.

In actuality what they want to place in that field is the unique key/id from the content attribute on the Pinterest Meta tag.
So from this - <meta name=“p:domain_verify” content=“d7afd0e361b04474a5e54308b7471e26"/>
We want this - d7afd0e361b04474a5e54308b7471e26

Might be as simple as changing text to say;

To confirm your site with Pinterest, add the key from your meta tag here:

Thank you

Thanks for your suggestion! Sounds like something we should seriously consider. We'll discuss this internally. Any progress or decisions can be followed in this issue.

This actually sounds like a bug. This test string:

<meta name="p:domain_verify" content="d7afd0e361b04474a5e54308b7471e26"/>

Is actually parsed properly, after which d7afd0e361b04474a5e54308b7471e26 is stored.

The example @garrett-eclipse gave in the issue has other quotes, which is why it fails, but they're not proper HTML quotes. So... Please reopen if I'm wrong, but I think I'm not :)

Thanks @jdevalk you're not wrong at all. I never assumed you could put the whole meta tag in there and it would extract what it needed. So that's my bad. Just tested and works great, and here I was thinking i had to pull the codes out of all those meta fields. Eyes have been opened :)
