Adding Elfsight Widget to PrestaShop Website

Want to add an Elfsight widget to your PrestaShop site? Follow this easy guide to integrate it smoothly. Simply copy your widget installation code and let’s get started! 🚀

1. Install the PrestaShop HTML Box Module

Due to PrestaShop’s limitations, the widget can’t be installed directly through the page editor. To do that, you’ll need to install a dedicated module that runs the script on your website.

It's free and simple! Just follow the steps:

1

On the PrestaShop HTML Box page, choose the file for your PrestaShop version and download the module:

In the left sidebar of your PrestaShop dashboard, select Modules → Module Manager. Click Upload a module:

3

Upload the .zip file of the module you just downloaded. Once installed, click Configure in the popup to continue with the installation:

If you need to adjust the code later, you can access the module settings anytime by going to Modules → Module Manager and clicking Configure next to HTMLbox:

2. Add the Widget to Your Website
