Widgets - GoDaddy website
AnsweredHi,
Trying to add widgets to an external GoDaddy website. I have followed instructions from their website of how to add HTML, but it's not working - nothing showing up.
Instructions here for reference:
Any advice appreciated.
Thanks

Hello Sam, thank you for your post! Unfortunately, GoDaddy does not allow the necessary access in order to add 3rd party widgets. In order to add your Thryv Business Center widgets to a 3rd party site, the code must be placed in the Head section of the HTML (not an HTML block in the body as GoDaddy allows). GoDaddy's website builder does not allow custom editing of the Head section of the HTML.
Because of this GoDaddy limitation, it's not possible to add the widgets directly.
If you're looking for a workaround, what you can do, is grab the links for each widget, and create action buttons within your GoDaddy site. It won't give you the floating widget design, but you will still be able to direct your customers to your client portal to perform necessary actions.
To grab the link for a widget, on the left-hand navigation in Thryv Business Center, go to Client Portal>Create Direct Links. From here, grab the links necessary, and use them to create an action button on your GoDaddy site. This will function the same as if your customer clicked on the widget.While we weren't able to give the answer you were likely hoping for due to GoDaddy's limitations with their website builder, hopefully this workaround provides a solution.
