Podia Testimonials Without Page Embed Code
Podia’s help center is clear on two points. The Embed command in a page only accepts links from platforms iFramely supports and does not take embed code, and the Third-party code box adds your snippet before the closing body tag of every public page. So a StoryProof widget cannot be dropped into the middle of one Podia sales page. Here are the two honest routes that remain.
- Why a Podia page section will not hold the widget
- Route 1: a link to your Wall of Love
- Route 2: a strip at the end of every public page
Two routes on Podia
What you can paste into Podia, and where
Enter your widget id for route 2. Route 1 needs no code, only the link to your Wall of Love, which you copy from StoryProof.
Part 1 · Route 1: a link on the sales page
Website › Edit site › Text section › /embed
Text section › type /embed › paste:
https://<your Wall of Love link from StoryProof>
Podia only turns iFramely-supported links into embeds,
so this one stays an ordinary clickable link.
Add a sentence above it, for example:
"Read what students say about this course"Part 2 · Route 2: a strip on every public page
Settings › Analytics › Third-party code › Edit › Website tracking code
<div data-storyproof-widget="YOUR_WIDGET_ID"></div>
<script src="https://app.storyproof.io/embed.js" async></script>For route 2, save and open a public page of your site in a private window. Podia adds the code before the closing body tag, so look at the very end of the page.
The widget id only fills in the code displayed here. Nothing is sent or saved.
The problem, solved
Podia limits, and what StoryProof can still do
- Problem 1
Podia rejects my widget embed code
Podia’s embed command takes a link from a supported platform and nothing else, so pasted HTML never renders inside a section.
How StoryProof solves it
Share the Wall of Love instead: a hosted page of your approved testimonials with its own link, included on every plan.
- Problem 2
I want proof on every page anyway
Some creators are happy with a testimonial strip at the end of each page, as long as it updates from one place.
How StoryProof solves it
Paste the two-line embed, a div with the widget id plus the async script, into Podia’s Website tracking code. Podia places it before the closing body tag site-wide.
- Problem 3
A site-wide strip must suit every product
Praise for one course reads oddly at the end of a page selling a different download.
How StoryProof solves it
Fill that widget with approved testimonials about you and your teaching in general, chosen by hand for the strip.
- Problem 4
Students send voice notes, not paragraphs
A typed quote box loses the warmth of a student talking about what changed for them.
How StoryProof solves it
Your collection link accepts video, audio or text, and audio notes play on the Wall of Love beside the other formats.
- Problem 5
Live workshop attendees never get the link
Students who meet you at an event leave before anyone emails them a request.
How StoryProof solves it
Share the collection link by hand in your Podia community or print it as a QR code for the room.
Route 1 or route 2 on Podia
In StoryProof
Set up either route
Step 1 of 4
Approve and choose the testimonials
Approve the stories you want public. For route 2, pick general ones that fit every product page.
Step 2 of 4
Route 1: add the link to a text section
In Website › Edit site, open a text section near your price, type /embed and paste the Wall of Love link. Podia leaves unsupported links as plain clickable links. Add a sentence that tells readers what they will find.
Step 3 of 4
Route 2: paste into Website tracking code
From Admin, open Settings › Analytics, click Edit beside Third-party code, paste both StoryProof lines into Website tracking code and save. If the option is greyed out, Podia says to confirm your email address.
Step 4 of 4
Check a public page
Open the sales page in a private window, click the link or scroll to the end, and confirm what a buyer sees.
Before you start
What this setup cannot do on Podia
No mid-page widget
Podia’s embed does not accept embed code, so a StoryProof widget cannot sit between two sections of one page.
Strip position is fixed
Third-party code goes before the closing body tag on every public page. You cannot move it or limit it to a single product.
Plan requirement
Podia says third-party code needs a plan that includes custom code. Trials and plans without it must upgrade.
No Podia app
StoryProof has no Podia integration. Both routes use a link or pasted code.

FAQ
Questions people ask
Short answers to what usually comes up next.
Can I put StoryProof in a Podia custom code section?
Podia’s current section list has no custom code section, and its embed command does not take embed code. The routes are a Wall of Love link or the site-wide Website tracking code.
Where does the site-wide strip appear?
Podia adds third-party code just before the closing body tag of every public page, including checkout. Expect it at the very end of the page.
Will route 2 work inside my course area?
No. Podia does not run third-party code in logged-in areas such as the customer Home Feed.
Is the Wall of Love on the free StoryProof plan?
Yes. Every plan includes a Wall of Love with its own link.
