In our site, we've got some old code sitting in the header. I'm guessing it originated from a plugin we used to use (embedding Scribd content into the site), but we are no longer using it. 

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.scribd.com/javascripts/view.js"></script>

The problem is I can't figure out how to get rid of this script. It's not in header.php - so where would I go to edit this out?

  • This is most likely injected through the wp_head hook into your <head> tag. Did you check the list of activated plugins or did you try to peak into the functions.php file in your current theme directory?

  • I don't see any reference to the scribd javascript in functions.php. Looking through activated (and inactive) plugins, don't see anything related to scribd anymore.

If you have SSH, go to your wp-content directory and grep it.

/ grep -HRn 'scribd' .

Found the code. There was a plugin that had not deleted itself completely. All gone - thanks for the grep idea!
