How to Use Webflow’s Embed Code Block for Custom Scripts

Step 1: Access Your Webflow Project

Log into your Webflow account and select the project you want to work on. This will take you to the Webflow Designer, where you can customize your website layout and design.

Step 2: Locate the Embed Code Block

In the Webflow Designer, find the Add panel on the left side. Look for the Embed Code Block either by scrolling through the elements or by typing "embed" in the search bar at the top of the Add panel.

Step 3: Drag and Drop the Embed Code Block

Once you've found the Embed Code Block, click and drag it to the desired location on your page. You can place it within any section, column, or div block. Make sure its placement aligns with your overall design and functionality.

Step 4: Open the Embed Code Editor

After placing the Embed Code Block, click on the “Open Code Editor” option in the settings panel on the right side to access where you'll input your custom script.

Step 5: Insert Your Custom Code

In the code editor, paste or write your custom HTML, CSS, or JavaScript code. Ensure that your code is clean and functional. Follow third-party scripts' specific guidelines for embedding if applicable.

Step 6: Save Your Changes

After inserting your code, click the "Save & Close" button to incorporate the script into your project. Make sure your JavaScript code doesn't conflict with Webflow's structure if it manipulates page elements.

Step 7: Preview Your Changes

Click on the Preview button (eye icon) to see how your script looks and functions. Interact with the elements to verify that they work as expected. If you find issues, return to the Embed Code Block and adjust your code as needed.

Step 8: Publish Your Changes

Once satisfied with the integration, click the Publish button in the top right corner. This will make your changes live, allowing visitors to experience your site's new functionality.

Step 9: Test on Different Devices

After publishing, test the functionality on various devices and screen sizes to ensure compatibility and avoid potential issues due to differing screen dimensions or capabilities.

By following these steps, you can effectively use Webflow's Embed Code Block to integrate custom scripts, enhancing your website's functionality and design.
