Three ways to embed Wiqly on a WordPress site.

WordPress has three places you can add the Wiqly embed script. Pick whichever fits your setup.

Option 1: Custom HTML block (per page)

Best for embedding on a single page only.

  1. Edit the page in the WordPress block editor (Gutenberg)
  2. Click the + button and add a Custom HTML block
  3. Paste your embed script
  4. Update the page

That's it. The widget appears on that page only.

Best for sitewide embedding without touching theme files.

  1. Install a plugin like WPCode or Insert Headers and Footers
  2. Open the plugin settings
  3. Paste your embed script into the Footer section
  4. Save

The widget now appears on every page.

Best if you're comfortable editing PHP and don't want another plugin.

  1. Go to Appearance → Theme File Editor
  2. Open footer.php
  3. Find the closing </body> tag near the bottom
  4. Paste your embed script just before it
  5. Click Update File

Note: if your theme updates, this change can be overwritten. Use a child theme if you go this route.

Page builders

If you're using Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, or another page builder:

  • Elementor — drop an HTML widget on the page and paste the script
  • Divi — use a Code module
  • Beaver Builder — use an HTML module

All work the same way: it's just a <script> tag.

Troubleshooting

  • Widget doesn't appear — check the page source (Ctrl+U) and confirm the script tag is actually in the HTML. If a plugin or theme is stripping it, try a different embed method.
  • Widget appears on every page but you only want one — switch from sitewide to Option 1 (Custom HTML block per page).
  • Conflicts with other widgets — Wiqly runs in Shadow DOM, so styles won't clash. If you see issues, get in touch.
