Creating a multi-widget

Home > Customizations > Creating a multi-widget

To incorporate a multi-widget on your website, which includes features such as a contact form, Messenger and WhatsApp links, and a chat button, similar to those seen on www.liveagent.com, you may utilize the provided HTML template. For in-depth instructions about advanced widget integration refer to the following article.
 

 

Please note that this is not a default LiveAgent feature/widget and we do not offer technical support for this particular widget. This is only an example of how you can achieve a multi widget design like the one on our website. We recommend contacting your web developer for the widget's integration on your website or for any customizations tailored to your specific needs.
If you are interested in creating a default LiveAgent widget instead, please, visit the following articles for chat button or contact form.

In the below HTML template, you have to replace the following values:
    {your_messenger_name}  -- replace with your Facebook/Messenger profile name.
    {your_whatsapp_number}  -- replace with your WhatsApp number
    {your_subdomain}  -- replace with your LiveAgent´s subdomain
    3e6rgxlu  -- replace with the ID of your contact form (we recommend creating a custom HTML contact button)
    yq9fg176  -- replace with the ID of your chat button (we recommend creating a custom HTML chat button)

If you're unable to import new fonts into your CSS files, you can instead embed the font directly into the <head> section of your HTML code:

<link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.gstatic.com" crossorigin>
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Poppins:ital,wght@0,100;0,200;0,300;0,400;0,500;0,600;0,700;0,800;0,900;1,100;1,200;1,300;1,400;1,500;1,600;1,700;1,800;1,900&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">
