Paid plan requiredSquarespace 7.0 and 7.1
Squarespace calls it Code Injection, and the Footer box is the one you want.
Before you start
Needs a Business plan or higher
Code Injection is not available on Personal plans. Squarespace says as much when you open the panel.
Applies to every page of the site.
Code to paste
<script>
(function () {
var s = document.createElement("script");
s.src = "https://prod2.readychatai.com/api/widget/js/";
s.async = true;
s.onload = function () {
ReadyChatAI.init({ apiKey: "YOUR_API_KEY", apiUrl: "https://prod2.readychatai.com" });
};
document.head.appendChild(s);
})();
</script>Steps
- In your Squarespace dashboard, open Website → Website Tools.
- Click Code Injection.
- Paste the code into the Footer box.
- Click Save.
- Open your live site in a new tab and refresh. Code Injection does not run inside the Squarespace editor preview, so always check the published site.
Replace YOUR_API_KEY with the key from your ReadyChatAI dashboard, under AI Bot, Configure, Website Widget.
The chat button is not showing up
Ordered by how often each one turns out to be the cause.
Your domain is not on the allowed list
In the widget's Settings tab, under Allowed Domains, mysite.com and www.mysite.com count as two different domains. Add both, plus any subdomain you use. An empty list allows every site.
The widget is switched off
The toggle at the top of the widget settings has to read Widget enabled. While it is off the script still loads, but nothing is drawn.
Your site is still serving a cached page
Caching plugins and your host's own cache keep serving the old HTML after you save. Purge every cache, then reload with a hard refresh.
A speed plugin is deferring the script
Options named Delay JavaScript execution, Defer JS or Combine JS break the loader. Add readychatai to the exclusion list of whichever plugin does the optimising.
Cloudflare Rocket Loader is rewriting the script
Rocket Loader defers scripts in a way that stops the widget's load callback from firing. Turn it off, or add a page rule that disables it for your site.
The page is HTTPS and the code says http
Browsers block that request outright and the console says so. The code we generate is already HTTPS, so this only happens when the snippet has been edited by hand.
A Content Security Policy is blocking us
If your site sends a Content-Security-Policy header, allow our domain in both script-src and connect-src. Your browser console names the directive that blocked the request.
An ad blocker is hiding the launcher
Some blockers hide chat widgets by default. Check in a private window with extensions disabled before reporting a problem.
