Can I use custom JavaScript in WeWeb?

Yes, you can integrate custom JavaScript within your WeWeb project. Post embedding, your interactive web elements will be more vibrant and dynamic. Please follow this step by step guide to include and use Javascript in your WeWeb project.

Step One: Enable "Code" Module in WeWeb

After logging into your WeWeb account, navigate to the website editor. On the left panel, find and click on the '+' sign. From the dropdown menu of draggable elements, you'll see an option named "Code". It's necessary to drag and drop the "Code" module on the desired interface where you want to run or execute your JavaScript code.

Step Two: Choose the "JavaScript" Option

Upon clicking the 'Code' module, a panel will appear on the right side that will prompt you to pick the type of code you want to add. Select "JavaScript". This will create a scaffold for you to insert your JavaScript code.

Step Three: Input Your Custom JavaScript Code

Within the JavaScript scaffold, copy and paste your custom JavaScript code. If you desire to write the JavaScript code, you can do so in this area.

Ensure that your script is fully functional, with no errors before pasting it. This is crucial for maintaining the website's overall functionality and user experience.

Step Four: Save Your Changes

When you finish inputting your JavaScript code, click on the green 'Save' button located at the corner bottom. Saving secures all changes and updates made on the module.

Step Five: Preview and Test Your Code

After saving your JavaScript code, using the "Preview" option on the upper right of your editor to see how it functions on your website. It’s always a good idea to test out all elements after making changes to make sure everything's working as expected.

Step Six: Publish Your Site

If you're content with how your custom JavaScript is functioning in preview mode, click on the "Publish" button on the top right corner of your screen to push your changes live.

And that's it! Now, you've successfully added custom JavaScript to your WeWeb project. Implementing JavaScript enables you to attain more interactive elements, enhancing UX along with website's overall performance.
