Sellfy Store Testimonials and Embed Limits
Sellfy creators sell downloads, subscriptions and merch from a hosted store, and the Store Customizer has an Embed code module that Sellfy says takes JavaScript, HTML and CSS. That is enough for a StoryProof widget on your home page or any custom store page. Two catches: the store wide header and footer code is switched off while you are on the trial, and the docs never say whether a module can sit inside a single product page.
- Both lines for one Embed code module
- The script alone for header and footer code, after the trial
- A link card for places modules cannot reach
Store Customizer code
What to paste into Sellfy
Enter your widget id. During the trial use Option A only. Once you pay, Option B can carry the script for every page while each module holds just a div. Option C is plain text for a button or text panel where you would rather link out.
Part 1 · Option A: one Embed code module with both lines
Dashboard › Store settings › Customize store › choose page › + Add module › Embed code
<div data-storyproof-widget="YOUR_WIDGET_ID"></div>
<script src="https://app.storyproof.io/embed.js" async></script>Part 2 · Option B: script in store wide code (not on the trial)
Store Customizer › General settings › Custom code (Header / Footer)
<script src="https://app.storyproof.io/embed.js" async></script>Part 3 · Option C: a link instead of a widget
Hero block or Text panel › button or link
Button text: See what buyers say
Link: [your StoryProof Wall of Love link]Save and publish the store, then open it in a private window. Check the page with the module and confirm the widget sits where you placed the module, not at the bottom of the page.
Assembled in your browser from the id you enter; nothing leaves the page.
The problem, solved
Sellfy testimonials: the limits and how StoryProof works around them
- Problem 1
Custom code is greyed out on my trial
Sellfy’s help says the Custom code (Header / Footer) feature is not available during the trial period, so the usual load it once advice fails.
How StoryProof solves it
Put both StoryProof lines in a single Embed code module. The widget needs no store wide script when the module carries its own.
- Problem 2
I want proof next to a product
The modules article covers store pages and never says a module can be placed inside a single product page, so do not plan on it.
How StoryProof solves it
Build a short custom page with an Embed code module, choose the testimonials that mention that product, and link to the page from the product description.
- Problem 3
My fans send voice notes, not reviews
Podcasters and musicians often get praise as audio, which Sellfy has nowhere to store or play.
How StoryProof solves it
Your StoryProof collection link takes video, audio or text, and audio notes play in widgets and on the Wall of Love.
- Problem 4
Several pages, several copies of the script
Pasting both lines into every module loads the same script more than once on pages with two widgets.
How StoryProof solves it
After the trial, move the script to the header and footer code once. Then each module holds only its div, and the single script fills them all.
In StoryProof
Add the widget to your Sellfy store
Step 1 of 5
Open the Store Customizer
From the Sellfy dashboard go to Store settings, then Customize store.
Step 2 of 5
Add an Embed code module
Pick the page, usually Home or a custom page, click + Add module and choose Embed code. Paste Option A into it.
Step 3 of 5
Choose what the widget shows
In StoryProof, pick the approved testimonials for this widget. Nothing reaches the store until you have approved it.
Step 4 of 5
Publish and view the store
Publish, then load the live store as a visitor and judge where the testimonials sit against the Products grid. If the order feels wrong, move the module in the customizer.
Step 5 of 5
Tidy up once you are on a paid plan
When the trial ends, you can paste Option B in General settings, Custom code (Header / Footer), and trim each module to its div.
Before you start
What Sellfy’s docs do and do not allow
Steps follow the docs as of 2026-11-14
Menu names come from Sellfy’s help articles on store modules and store settings, read on 2026-11-14. Nobody has tried them on a live Sellfy store yet.
Header and footer code waits for a paid plan
Sellfy states the Custom code feature is not available during the trial. Option A works without it.
Product pages are unconfirmed
The modules article lists Hero block, Text panel, Newsletter form, Products grid, Social links, Contact form, Embed code and Spacing for store pages, and says nothing about product pages. Treat a widget there as untested.
Not a Sellfy app
StoryProof does not connect to your Sellfy account and does not read Sellfy orders or product reviews. It is a pasted embed.
Badge on lower plans
A "Powered by StoryProof" badge shows on widgets until Pro.
FAQ
Questions people ask
Short answers to what usually comes up next.
Why not just paste the code into a Text panel?
Sellfy’s modules article names the Embed code module as the one for JavaScript, HTML and CSS. A text editor may treat the script as words to display, so keep StoryProof in the Embed code module.
Does the widget work with my Sellfy theme?
The widget draws inside the module’s space and keeps its own styling. Pick a layout in StoryProof that suits the width of your theme.
Will StoryProof email my Sellfy buyers automatically?
Not from Sellfy on its own. Add buyers as contacts in StoryProof, where contacts and smart lists are on every plan, or share your collection link in your delivery email.
Can I hide the Sellfy logo and the StoryProof badge together?
They are separate. Sellfy’s docs tie hiding its own logo to its Business and Premium plans; the StoryProof badge goes away from Pro.
Still have a question? Ask the StoryProof team or book a demo.
Put buyer praise on your Sellfy store
Gather video, audio and written testimonials in StoryProof and drop one module into Sellfy.
