We assume that you have already configured your GeoBooster JS widget and now you want to add it to your Wix website.

  1. Go to https://users.wix.com/signin and sign in with your administrator credentials.

  2. Select your website on the "Sites" page and click on the "Select & Edit site" button.
    ​

  3. You will be redirected to your website dashboard. Click "Settings" in the side menu to the left.
    ​

  4. Scroll down to the "Advanced" section, and click the "Custom code" button.
    ​

  5. On the "Custom Code" page click the "Add Custom Code" button.
    ​

  6. Return to Local Viking, go to GeoBooster->Widgets, click on your widget, go to the "Embed code" section, and copy the widget code snippet.
    ​

  7. Return to Wix. Fill out the "Add Custom Code" dialog as shown below. Paste the widget script in the field "Paste the code snippet here", specify the name of the snippet (for example, GB Widget), select the page to add the widget to, and place to add the widget code, we used "Body - end" here.

    ​

  8. Add to the widget snippet the line data-container-id="gb_widget", so your widget code will look like this:
    ​<script

    id="gb_widget_script"

    type="module"

    src="https://gb-widget.localbusinessreporting.com/gb-widget.js"
    ​data-container-id="gb_widget"

    data-widget-token="1234567890123456789abcdef">

    </script>

  10. Click the "Site & App"->"Website" in the side menu to the left.
    ​

    ​

  12. Wix editor opens. Select the page you want to add the widget to from the dropdown.
    ​

  13. Add a new blank section to the website layout at the place where you want to add the widget: click the "+ Add Section" button, then select the "+ Blank Section" in the side menu.

  14. Click the "Add Elements" button in the toolbar.
    ​

  15. Select "Embed Code"->"Custom"->"Custom Element".
    ​
