Installing on Shopify

How to add the Fibly widget to a Shopify store by editing the theme.liquid file.

On Shopify, the easiest way to embed the widget is directly in the main theme template. That way it appears on every page of your store: category listings, product pages, and the cart.

The snippet to embed (the same one you see in the Fibly panel under Widget settings, Copy code):

<script async src="https://cdn.fibly.io/widget/fibly-widget.js"></script>

Step 1: open the theme editor

  1. In your Shopify panel, go to Online Store, Themes.
  2. Next to your active theme, click Actions, Edit code.

Step 2: edit theme.liquid

  1. In the Layout column, open the theme.liquid file.
  2. Find the closing </body> tag (usually near the very end of the file).
  3. Paste the snippet above just before it.
  4. Click Save.

Step 3: check your changes

Open your store in a new tab (preferably in incognito mode). The chat button should appear in the bottom-right corner. If you don't see it, check the installation verification article.
