The Videoly widget can be installed in any online store. Installing the Videoly widget is a simple operation.
💡We highly recommend placing your Videoly script on all pages of your online store. This will allow you to easily manage content for PDPs and non-PDPs alike. The script will not affect pages that are not configured for the widget.
There are two methods:
1. Direct installation into the platform's product page template
There are numerous out-of-the-box and customised platforms for online stores such as Shopify, Magento, WooCommerce, etc. Some retailers also choose to create their own platform from scratch. Still, installing Videoly is similar for all platforms: you simply have to add our Javascript-snippet (aka the Videoly tag) to your product page template. This is the recommended way to implement Videoly.
2. Tag managers
You can also install Videoly directly via Google Tag Manager (GTM). Installing the widget using GTM usually takes around 3-5 minutes.

Adobe Tag Manager is an alternative solution with a process similar to GTM.
💡Some plugins help manage header and footer scripts without modifying the theme's code (if you're using Wordpress, for example).
Testing the widget
You can test the widget in your testing or development environment by adding the test domain in MyVideoly's settings. Read more about testing here.
Configuration
After installing our solution, we are happy to help you configure widget settings (let us know via support@videoly.co) or you can easily do this yourself by:
- Sharing product information

- Adjusting the appearance of the widget
What happens next?
After the tag has been installed we gather your store's products into our database as product pages are visited. You will gradually see more and more videos appearing alongside your products. All video content undergoes checks by our curation team to ensure content is relevant, high-quality and sends a positive message.
You will also receive logins to MyVideoly - your video management tool. (Read our MyVideoly step-by-step guide)
