Embed reviews and feedback forms on
Wix Websites

Using Wix's Embed Code element

In the Wix Editor, open the Add Elements panel, choose Embed Code, then Embed HTML, and paste the ProofBeer snippet. Wix places embedded HTML in its own frame on the page, so set the element's size deliberately. Wix's own documentation says embedded content is not responsive by default and recommends using 100% for width and height inside the embedded code so it scales with its container. Test on desktop, tablet and mobile views in the editor, then check the published page.

Wix-specific notes

• Embed HTML requires HTTPS. Wix's documentation states the code must contain HTTPS and not HTTP; the ProofBeer snippet already loads over HTTPS.
• Wix does not limit the length of embedded HTML, so full snippets are fine.
• Drag the embed to the width you need, then use Wix's mobile editor to resize it separately for phones.
• Embeds in a frame cannot always resize themselves. If your widget is cut off, increase the element height.
• Use the Wix Editor preview and then the published URL to test, since some behaviour only shows on the live site.

Troubleshooting Wix setup

The embedded element is blank

Check the code is pasted in full and uses HTTPS. Publish the site and view the live page, not only the editor.

The widget is cropped or has scrollbars

Increase the height of the HTML element or switch pixel sizes inside the code to 100%, as Wix recommends.

It looks fine on desktop but not on mobile

Open the mobile editor and resize the element separately. Wix embeds are not responsive by default.

The widget loads slowly

Move it below the fold and avoid placing multiple embeds on the same page.

Wix shows a security warning

Use the Embed HTML option for the snippet, not 'Embed a site', which expects a URL and can be blocked by the target site's security policy.

Detailed Wix setup, step by step

1. Build the widget in ProofBeer and copy the snippet.
2. In the Wix Editor open Add Elements, then Embed Code, then Embed HTML.
3. Choose the Code option and paste the snippet.
4. Click Apply.
5. Drag the element to the right place and stretch it to the full width of the section.
6. Check the code uses HTTPS and the sizing is 100% where needed.
7. Open the mobile editor and adjust the element.
8. Publish and test the live URL.

Common mistakes to avoid

• Choosing Embed a site instead of Embed HTML.
• Leaving the element too short and clipping the widget.
• Checking only the editor preview.
• Forgetting to resize for mobile.
• Adding several embeds to one page.

How the Wix integration works

Wix places Embed HTML in a frame on the page. The ProofBeer snippet inside the frame loads the widget and sizes itself to the element you drew. Resize the element to give the widget enough room, and use Wix's mobile editor to adjust it for small screens.

Real-world ways to use it

Service page proof

A grid of Google reviews on your main service page, near the booking button.

Home page rating badge

A compact badge with your rating count under the hero.

Booking page reassurance

A short carousel above the booking form.

Launch checklist

• Use Embed HTML, not Embed a site.
• Confirm the code uses HTTPS.
• Resize the element to full width.
• Adjust the mobile layout.
• Publish and test the live URL.
• Check that the widget height shows all content.
• Review load time.

How this compares with the alternatives

Wix has its own review apps in the app market. They can be convenient but are limited to their own data sources. ProofBeer lets you combine Google, Facebook and form feedback and reuse the same widget if you move to another platform.

Performance and SEO on Wix

Embedded HTML in a frame is not always read as part of your page text by crawlers, so keep key testimonial text as native Wix text on the page and use the widget for the live, synced display. Place widgets where they help conversions, such as pricing and booking pages, and keep the page light with a single embed.
