Questions
- What happens after the event?
- The widget says the event is here, then points readers to upcoming events once it's over. Swap in the next event whenever you're ready.
- Is the widget free?
- Yes. There's no fee and no sign-up. Embed it on as many pages as you like, on sites you own or manage, as long as the credit line stays in place.
- How do I add it to WordPress, Squarespace or Wix?
- Copy the code, then paste it into an HTML block: “Custom HTML” in WordPress, a “Code” block in Squarespace or “Embed HTML” in Wix. If your site builder strips scripts, leave out the last line and the widget still works at a fixed height.
- Will it slow down my page or track my visitors?
- No. The widget loads lazily in its own frame, sets no cookies and sends nothing your visitors type anywhere. We count views with cookieless analytics.
