I’m doing a Wordpress theme and I want to incorporate the following script in the head:

Any idea or how to incorporate the code?

Thank you for your answer!
I don’t know the reason why I can not incorporate a script manually, it has no sense…
I think it is not necessary to use a plugin just for that (I always try to avoid plugins).
Does anyone know any other solution?
I’ve entered the code from the Library option (left column) using the “insert code” option.
Then I drag it in the head and it’s when appears two script.
At the time of export the first script does not appear.

Never used the Library option but you could try putting both bits of the Analytics script into a \

the Analytics code must be inside the ``, and placing a `
` in it is a bit weird…
If you do not use the library how do you do to incorporate scripts?

Thank you Mandarin for your answers, I really appreciate it.
I can’t place a div inside the head element and have valid code – only metadata is allowed and Google Analyts must be there.
I have also tried to put the Google Tag Manager code and it does not work either.
Could you show me how your built-in?
I want this code:

But after save and export and upload to FTP shows this:

All I can really suggest is to add Analytics code in a div elsewhere as suggested where it will run fine or to use the plug in.
Personally I find the plug in to be excellent so have never experienced the issue you are having.
Sorry I cannot help more.

Check your functions.php file. I think PG strips those scripts and puts them there.
````auto
wp_deregister_script( 'script-1' );
wp_enqueue_script( 'script-1', 'https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-XXXXXXXX-1', false, null, false);
wp_add_inline_script( 'script-1', 'window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
gtag(\'js\', new Date());
gtag(\'config\', \'UA-XXXXXXXX-1\');');```
I'm not sure if there is a way to force them to be kept in the head section.
