Pinterest uses a verification code output as a meta tag. There's already a module that handles this (Pinterest Verify) but it should be easy to support it.

Moving this to the Metatag module as it would be very little effort to add.

Can you direct me to instructions on configuring Metatag: Verification?
I have installed v.7.x-1.11.
I've read the README.txt files in both the metatag and metatag_verification directories.
I've watched the video tutorial.
I've looked through all available fields and tokens for Global configuration as noted in Metatag: Verification README.txt, but cannot discern how to make this configuration.
Thanks,
Phil

@philalonso: I just went through the steps and worked out the following:

  • Install the Metatag Verification module.
  • Go to the Global configuration page: admin/config/search/metatags/config/global
  • Open up the Site Verification set of tags.
  • Log into Pinterest.
  • Click the gear menu button.
  • Click “Edit settings”
  • Scroll down to the Profile section of the page.
  • Fill in the website’s URL into the “Website” field.
  • Click the “Confirm website” button.
  • A popup will open up that will include a string like this:
  • Copy the portion after the “content” bit from in between the two double-quotes, e.g. in the example above copy the “abc123abc123abc123abc123abc123” piece.
  • Go back to the Metatag configuration page.
  • Paste the string into the Pinterest field.
  • Click “Save”.
  • Et voila

Thanks for prodding me into working this out, I'll add it to the documentation page.

@damienmckenna: thanks for the update!

After posting, I discovered that the version of ctools installed on my dev instance was out-of-date. Once I installed the current version, the Site Verification group in global configuration appeared.

Cheers,
Phil
