So I've read the @FediTips post about verification, and done the things. All links to my profile have rel="me" and I have the <link> tag in the <head>. I suspect the link to my site isn't turning green because the site theme I use has class= and target= attributes in the footer link to my Mastodon link.
Is this a bug? It's not like I want to remove the Mastodon link from the footer of my site, and I can't change the fact that it needs the class= attribute to fit in the theme of the site.

Try removing the footer link but keeping it elsewhere on the page.
Sometimes if there are multiple links to the same account it can confuse the verification system into only trying one of them.

Also, there doesn't seem to be a closing </head> tag for your page's header? That might be affecting things?

@FediTips It was there, you may have missed it because the HTML was minified so the whole page is one line. I've now turned off the minify step in my site generation workflow.
Frankly, this isn't really important enough to take up much more of my time, some people see the link as verified and some (like me) don't.

I tried looking on the source and it seemed to go straight from the Mastodon link to <body>?
Sorry to hear it isn't working, weird to hear it works for some people though
