In this article, you'll learn how to add an embed code or iFrame code to your Plug&Pay landing pages. Want to add your social media channel, a chat function or other external content to your landing page? Then you use an embed or iFrame code.
An embed/iFrame code is an HTML element that loads another HTML page on your landing page. This way, you can add a specific component of an external website with an HTML code. That gives you the option to integrate interactive external content into your landing page.
❗️ Please note: there's no guarantee that embed codes will always work correctly on landing pages.
Adding an embed/iFrame code
Go to your landing page and add a new component to an existing block by clicking the '+' icon -> click 'Add element' -> click 'Embed' -> and add your embed/iFrame code in the box under 'Embed code' on the left. Have you completed these steps? Then the specific component of the website is loaded straight away, as shown below.
Bear in mind that adding an embed/iFrame code can have a negative effect on the page's functionality. This is because the page becomes heavier to load due to the embed/iFrame code.
Examples of embed codes
You can use embed codes for many purposes. Want to load your podcast episodes, for example? Or a calendar on a page? Or perhaps a chat function? We've listed some of the most-used possibilities for you and the method you can use to add them.
Adding live chat
Want to give your visitors the option to send a chat message directly via your website? You can choose to show the chat on every page of your website, or on a specific page.
Adding a calendar
Looking for a booking module that allows someone to schedule an appointment in your calendar? This is usually displayed on a specific part of a page.
