How do I set up and integrate the OTTO script or plugin on my website?
Whether you are setting up OTTO using scripts or activating functionalities through a plugin, this guide provides step-by-step instructions for multiple platforms and scenarios to ensure a seamless OTTO integration process.
General Steps for Script Integration
To integrate the OTTO script into your website:
Obtain the OTTO Script: Access and copy the OTTO script from your OTTO project in the Search Atlas dashboard.
Find Your CMS/Site Header Section: Use your CMS or website builder’s settings to locate the section where scripts can be added to the header tag.
Insert and Save: Paste the OTTO script into the designated header area and save your changes.
For Unfamiliar CMS Platforms:
If using a platform you’re less familiar with:
Contact the CMS support team for specific guidance on adding scripts.
Look for settings or features related to the site header. Insert the OTTO script as instructed by your CMS provider.
For Lightspeed Ecom:
Lightspeed Ecom users should:
Place the OTTO script directly in the page code of their site instead of the script setup area. This method resolves integration issues that may occur.
For Squarespace Websites:
If your site is built on Squarespace:
Navigate to Website Tools > Code Injection in the Squarespace dashboard.
Use the Header Injection area for site-wide scripts.
For scripts on specific pages, open the page’s settings, go to the Advanced tab, and insert the code in the Page Header Code Injection section.
Activating OTTO with the Plugin
If you prefer to activate OTTO using only the plugin:
Retrieve and Add the API Key: Obtain your OTTO API key from the Search Atlas dashboard and configure it in the plugin settings.
Enable Plugin Features: Make sure all required plugin settings are activated and save the configuration.
Tips and Best Practices
Always back up your website before making changes to scripts or plugins.
Review platform-specific documentation to ensure correct OTTO setup.
If unclear, consult the platform’s customer support for further guidance.
