Adding Custom Scripts

Custom scripts let you add third-party code to your Faithmade site. Analytics tools, chat widgets, accessibility plugins, tracking pixels — if someone gave you a code snippet and said "paste this on your website," this is where it goes.

The Three Injection Points

Head (before </head>) For scripts that need to load before the page renders. Most analytics and tracking scripts (Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Google Tag Manager).

Body Top (after <body>) For scripts that need to load early but after the page starts rendering. Some chat widgets and A/B testing tools.

Body Bottom (before </body>) For scripts that can load last. Chat widgets, survey tools, non-critical tracking scripts. Best for site performance.

tip

Not sure which to use? Body Bottom is usually the safest bet.

How to Add a Script

  1. Go to Settings in your Faithmade dashboard
  2. Click on Custom Scripts (or find it under Integrations)
  3. Choose your injection point
  4. Paste your script into the text area
  5. Click Save

Your script is now live on every page. You can add multiple scripts to the same injection point.

Common Uses

  • Accessibility widgets (AccessiBe, UserWay)
  • Live chat tools (Tawk.to, Olark)
  • Donation platform widgets
  • Retargeting pixels
caution

Only add scripts from sources you trust. Test after adding — if something breaks, remove it immediately. Every script adds a small amount of load time, so less is more.
