How to add Beamer to your Simvoly built website?

Method 1 (basic implementation)

  1. Copy this made-for-Simvoly embed script
<script>
    var beamer_config = {
        product_id: "YOUR PRODUCT ID",
        button_position: 'bottom-right' // Position for the default notification button. Other possible values are 'bottom-left', 'top-left', and 'top-right'.
    };

    var head = document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0];
    var s = document.createElement("script");
    s.type = "text/javascript";
    s.src = "https://app.getbeamer.com/js/beamer-embed.js";
    head.appendChild(s);
</script>
Warning: Simvoly doesn’t allow imported scripts so you’ll need to use this tailor-made script. Do not use the Beamer embed provided in your dashboard because it won’t work.
  1. Go to Simvoly page editor.
  2. Go to Website Settings > Custom Code and select the Custom JavaScript tab.
