How can I host an external script on Webflow and make it run successfully? Do I have access to a FTP or folders like a public_html folder?
To host an external script on Webflow and make it run successfully, you don't need access to FTP or folders like a public_html folder. Webflow provides a built-in feature called Custom Code that allows you to embed external scripts into your project. Here's how you can do it:
- Access Custom Code:
- Open your Webflow project in the Webflow Designer.
- Click on the project settings icon in the left sidebar.
- In the Project Settings panel, go to the Custom Code tab.
- Add the script:
- In the Head Code section, paste the code for your external script. This code should be provided by the script's provider.
- If the script code includes a
<script>tag, make sure to paste the entire code inside the corresponding field in the Head Code section.
- Save and publish:
- Once you've added the script code, click the Save Changes button.
- Then, publish your Webflow project to make the changes live.
Note: When using an external script, make sure it's compatible with Webflow, follows Webflow's guidelines, and doesn't interfere with the functionality of your site. It's also essential to thoroughly test the script to ensure it runs correctly and doesn't cause any conflicts or errors.
By following these steps, you can easily host an external script on Webflow without the need for FTP or public_html folders, making it run successfully on your website.
