Adding the widget on Wix

Wix uses an Embed HTML element to add third-party blocks like the Make a Rezzy reservation widget. This article walks through the paste-in step, and explains how Wix's iframe wrapping affects the widget's appearance.

Before you start, copy the embed snippet for your widget — see Adding the widget to your site if you have not got that far.

Adding the widget

  1. Open the page where you want the widget in the Wix editor.
  2. Click + Add Elements on the left toolbar.
  3. Pick Embed Code, then Embed HTML. A small placeholder element will appear on the page.
  4. Click the placeholder and choose Enter Code. Paste the embed snippet into the box that appears.
  5. Click Update. Drag the placeholder to where you want the widget on the page, and resize it so the widget has enough room to render at full width.
  6. Click Publish in the top-right.

Sizing the embed

Wix sizes the Embed HTML element by hand — it does not auto-resize to fit the widget. A couple of rules of thumb:

  • Button widget — make the placeholder roughly the size of one large button (around 240×64 pixels). The button will scale to fill it.
  • Inline widget — give it the full width of your page section and at least 360 pixels of height (around 560 pixels if the customer-facing copy is long). You can always resize after seeing the live render.
