Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Simple Header and Footer

No. Earlier versions could execute PHP stored in the header/footer fields; that feature was removed in 1.1.0 for security. If you were using it, your previous code was saved for you on the plugin's settings page.
Version 1.1.0 could remove the <script> tags from saved code while updating. This was fixed in 1.1.1, but the tags that were already removed can't be recovered automatically: open Settings > Simple Header & Footer, wrap your code in <script> and </script> tags (and re-add any script tag that loads an external file, like the Google tag loader) and save.
Your account does not have the unfiltered_html capability, which WordPress requires to save raw scripts (this is the default on Multisite sub-sites). Ask a Super Admin, or save the code from an account that has it.
Header code is printed with the wp_head hook (late, priority 11). Footer code is printed with the wp_footer hook. Your theme needs to call both, as any well-built theme does.
