AI Chatbot for Squarespace via Code Injection

What connecting Squarespace gets you

Squarespace keeps your site tidy by not letting you drop scripts just anywhere, but it gives you one purpose-built place for them, Code Injection, and that is the cleanest way to add a site-wide script. That makes Squarespace a natural home for an AI support agent: you paste the snippet into the site footer once, save, and the agent is live on every page in a single step. There's no plugin to install and no per-page work to repeat.

Once it's live, the agent shows up as a chat bubble in the bottom-right across the whole site and answers from your knowledge base — the content you have connected — rather than reciting a generic script. For a visitor, the question they would otherwise send through your contact form gets answered in the moment, on whichever page they happened to be reading.

Where the snippet goes

The snippet goes into Settings → Advanced → Code Injection, in the Footer box, then Save. Squarespace injects whatever sits in that Footer box near the end of every page, which is exactly where the widget wants to load. And because it's a site-level setting rather than a per-page block, it applies everywhere at once without you editing individual pages or templates.

Before you start

Two things to have ready. First, the plan: Code Injection is available on the Squarespace Business plan and higher, so a site on a lower plan will need to upgrade before this method is available. Second, your embed snippet: you copy it from the Install tab, where it comes with your chatbot id already filled in. If you don't have a workspace yet, create one free at app.evoriqa.com. No credit card needed.

Adding it via Code Injection

Open Settings → Advanced → Code Injection, paste the snippet into the Footer box, and Save. That's the whole edit. There's no template to fork and nothing to add page by page. The single Footer injection is what carries the agent to every page, which is why Code Injection is the recommended route on Squarespace rather than trying to place the script inside a content block.

Confirming it's live

Open your published site, not the editor, and look for the chat bubble in the bottom-right. Click it, ask a real question, and check the answer is coming from your own knowledge base rather than a generic reply. Because the Footer injection is site-wide, it's worth clicking through to a second page to confirm the bubble follows you across the site.

Common questions

Does it go on every page, or do I add it per page? Every page. The Code Injection Footer box is a site-level setting, so one paste covers the whole site. There's nothing to repeat page by page.

Which Squarespace plan do I need? Code Injection is a Business-plan-and-up feature. On plans below Business the Code Injection option isn't available, so that is the upgrade to check for first.

How do I know it's actually answering from my content? Ask it something only your site would know (a policy, or a detail from a specific page) and confirm the reply matches what you've published rather than a generic answer.

Squarespace-specific limits

The plan requirement is the real gate: Code Injection is Business-and-up, so a site below the Business plan can't use this method until it upgrades. Everything past that is a single paste into the Footer box.

Worth knowing if you're weighing platforms: Ghost exposes the same kind of site-wide header and footer injection, and Bubble an equivalent body field for apps rather than sites.
