Showing challenges on your website

How to create a website embed, choose allowed websites, and paste the snippet on your site.

Website embeds show chosen challenges on your own website with one snippet of code. Account owners manage them in Settings → Website embeds → Manage embeds.

You need at least one approved challenge before you can create an embed.

  1. Select New embed and give it a name.

  2. Choose the challenges to show.

  3. Under Allowed websites, add each website that may show the embed, such as council.gov.uk. Enter the domain only, without https:// or a path.

  4. Optionally add a heading, introduction and a call-to-action button with an https link.

  5. Check the Preview and save.

  6. Select Snippet, then Copy snippet, and paste it into your website once.

Editing the embed later updates what it shows. You never need to change the snippet.

The embed only shows on the exact websites you allowed. www. is optional, but each subdomain, such as news.council.gov.uk, must be added separately.

To stop showing challenges, disable the embed. Enabling it again brings them back with the same snippet. Deleting an embed can't be undone.
