WordPress and in-app guidance

WordPress can be a classic theme-based site, a Gutenberg block site, or a fully headless setup with a JS frontend. The snippet placement and tour targeting depend on which. Classic and Gutenberg sites are multi-page with full reloads, so SPA mode isn’t needed. Headless WordPress with a React or Next.js frontend is a different integration entirely (treat it as React or Next.js, not WordPress).

Theme files are overwritten on theme updates. Putting custom code in theme files works but is fragile. A plugin like "Insert Headers and Footers" or "WPCode" keeps the snippet outside the theme so it survives updates.

Installing Produktly on WordPress

Use the "WPCode" or "Insert Headers and Footers" plugin and paste into the header section. This survives theme updates.

<!-- WordPress: WPCode > Header & Footer > Header -->
<script>
  (function (w, d, f) {
    var a = d.getElementsByTagName("head")[0];
    var s = d.createElement("script");
    s.async = 1; s.src = f;
    s.setAttribute("id", "produktlyScript");
    s.dataset.clientToken = "YOUR_TOKEN";
    a.appendChild(s);
  })(window, document, "https://public.produktly.com/js/main.js");
</script>

If you must edit theme files directly, place this just before </head> in header.php. Use a child theme so a parent-theme update doesn’t wipe your changes.

Things to watch out for on WordPress

  • Theme updates wipe theme.php changes

    Custom code added directly to header.php disappears when you update the theme. Use a child theme or a header/footer plugin so the snippet persists.

  • Caching plugins can delay updates

    WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, and similar plugins serve old HTML. After adding the snippet, clear cache and verify in an incognito window.

  • WP Admin and frontend are different DOMs

    Tours added to the public site won’t appear in wp-admin and vice versa. Decide which audience the tour is for and load the snippet on the matching surface (wp_head hook for frontend, admin_head hook for admin).

Why teams on WordPress pick Produktly

WordPress teams pick Produktly because the snippet works on any theme without a plugin lock-in. For headless WordPress, the same script tag drops into the JS frontend (React, Next.js, etc.) without changes. Feedback widgets routing to Slack are especially useful for membership sites where users report issues in real time.
