Anyone else having trouble verifying their website with Pinterest?  WordPress has (what seems like) very simple instructions for accomplishing the verification, as follows:

The best way to verify your WordPress blog is with HTML meta tags. Thanks to WordPress for these instructions:

 

1. Sign in to WordPress and go to your blog dashboard
2. Open Tools –> Available Tools 
3. Paste just the content part of your meta tag from pinterest.com/website/verify in the Pinterest Site Verification field under the Website Verification Services header
4. Click Save Changes
5. Go back to pinterest.com/website/verify and click Click Here to complete the process

You’ll see a message that the process was completed successfully, and your website and a checkmark will display on your profile page and in search results.

When I go to the ‘Available Tools’ tab, there is no option for “Pinterest Site Verification”.  Is this an option Mantra does not have?

I think you are following WordPress.com hosted blogs instructions on a self-hosted WordPress blog. These rarely work as WordPress.com blogs include a lot more extensions that are not installed by default in self-hosted WordPress.

There is no “Pinterest Site Verification” field in WordPress. And Mantra has nothing to do with this.

Perhaps this will help.
