Where it lives
Open Settings›Sally on your website›Add to your site. Your personalised snippet is there with a Copy code button; it already contains your business ID. Once it's on your site, Sally appears as a small chat button in the bottom corner of every page, and visitors tap it to ask questions and book, day or night.
Paste the snippet
Copy the code
Click Copy code. It looks like the block below, with your own ID filled in.
Paste it just before the closing body tag
Every website builder has a place for code that loads on every page. Paste the whole block there; the builder-by-builder spots are listed below.
Publish your site and check
Open your website in a private window.
You'll see: Sally's chat button in the bottom corner. Tap it and ask her your opening hours.
<!-- Suddenly Sorted chat widget -->
<script>
window.SuddenlySortedConfig = {
apiUrl: "https://widget.suddenly.co.nz",
businessId: "your-business-id"
};
</script>
<script src="https://widget.suddenly.co.nz/widget.js"></script>
While you're on Add to your site, set the quick-reply buttons customers see when the chat opens: up to four, each with a label and the message it sends. Leave them empty for the defaults: Book now, Prices, Opening hours, Services.
Where to paste it
- WixSettings › Custom Code › Body, end · all pages
- SquarespaceSettings › Advanced › Code Injection › Footer
- WordPressWPCode plugin › Footer box
- ShopifyThemes › Edit code › theme.liquid
- GoDaddyAdd an HTML block, paste inside
Squarespace needs its Business plan or higher for code injection. If your builder isn't listed, search its help for “custom code footer” and paste there.
Repoint a Book now button
You don't have to paste any code. If your site already has a Book now button, usually pointing at a phone number or a contact form, change where it goes. Copy your link from Settings›Booking page›Share your page. It looks like yoursalon.suddenly.co.nz/?src=website. In your editor, click the button, find the field called Link or URL, paste over it, publish. No button yet? The same card gives you a ready-made one in solid, pill or outline.
What it won't do
Common questions
Is there a Book tab as well as chat?
On eligible accounts the widget shows two tabs, Chat and Book. Book is a tap-through: service, stylist, time, done, with a Chat instead link on every step. There's no toggle; it needs your services list filled in.
I pasted it but nothing shows
Check it's on the published site, not just the editor preview, and that it's on every page. Then open your site in a private window; a cached copy can hide it for a few minutes.
Does the old book.suddenly.co.nz link still work?
Yes. If you shared book.suddenly.co.nz/yoursalon before, leave it. It redirects to your booking page and carries the tracking through.
