Google tracking code appears in header?

Why does my google tracking code appear in the header? If I remove the code from the Options/General Settings, it disappears.

 

It seems, you are not placing the complete code, please put the complete code there including script tags.

This will resolve your issue,

Warm Regards!

this is the only code I have ever used. What do you think a "complete code" should look like?

 

I think I found it. You should change the prompt to ask the user to enter their "tracking code script"

<script>
(function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){
(i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),
m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)
})(window,document,'script','https://www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');

ga('create', 'UA-36040942-1', 'auto');
ga('send', 'pageview');

</script>

 

That sounds great
