Use Custom Trigger

In this article, we provide a straightforward, step-by-step guide on how to set up a custom trigger for your Engagement Widget™. This guide is designed to help you easily configure your widget so that it opens when a specific element on your webpage is clicked, such as a button.

Go To Widget Settings

  • Log in to your ChatHQ portal.
  • Go to your Widget Settings and open up the main widget settings.

Enable Custom Trigger

  • Locate the option that says "Use a Custom Trigger" and toggle it on.
  • Upon doing so, a field labeled "Custom Trigger ID" will appear below the toggle.

Specify Custom Trigger ID

  • After enabling custom triggers, you'll see a field for "custom trigger ID."
  • Input the ID of the HTML element you want to serve as your custom trigger for the widget.

Floating Action Button Settings

  • Below the "Custom Trigger ID" field, you'll find another toggle for the Floating Action Button.
  • Toggle this on if you want a floating action button to appear on your webpage. Toggle off if you want the widget to be triggered only by the custom element you will define in the next steps.

Where to Find Custom Trigger ID

HighLevel Websites/Funnels

  • Open your HighLevel website or funnel builder and navigate to the page where you wish to implement the Engagement Widget™.
  • Choose the page element (e.g., a button) that you want to act as your custom trigger.
  • With the element selected, go to its settings, usually found on the right-hand side of the funnel builder interface.
  • Navigate to the "Advanced" settings and scroll down to find the "CSS Selector" field.
  • Copy the code that represents your chosen element (this will be your "Custom Trigger ID").

Elementor (Wordpress)

Paste Custom Trigger ID into ChatHQ Portal

  • Go back to your ChatHQ portal.
  • Paste the copied CSS selector code into the "Custom Trigger ID" field.
  • Remove the hashtag '#' from the pasted code if it's already pre-filled in the portal.

Save Your Settings

  • After entering your custom trigger ID, click on the "Save" option to apply the changes.

Test the Custom Trigger

  • Return to your funnel page to test the custom trigger.
  • Click on the element you chose as your custom trigger (e.g., the "Open Widget" button).
  • The Engagement Widget™ should now open when you click this element.
  • If you toggled off the floating action button, it should not appear on the webpage.
