Webflow
Step 1: Sign Into Your LemChat Account and Set Up Your Chatbot
1. Sign up for a free LemChat account if you don't already have one.
2. Log into your LemChat account and navigate to the bot creation page.
3. Provide training data for your new bot by uploading sources like text snippets, documents, website content, or Q&A pairs.
4. Train and test your bot in LemChat until it responds accurately to queries.
Step 2: Copy Your Chatbot Embed Code
Once you've set up and tested your LemChat bot, you'll need the embed code to display the bot widget on your website. To do this:
1. Go to the dashboard of your LemChat account.
2. You should see a list of chatbots, click the chatbot you wish to integrate into your Webflow website. You should be taken to the chatbot's preview page.
3. On the chatbot preview page, click on the Embed tab.
4. A new page should come up. Click on Copy Iframe to copy the provided HTML code.
Step 3: Set Up a Container to Display Your Chatbot Widget
Before adding the embed code to your Webflow site, you will need to create a container to display the widget. This will ensure that the widget is displayed in the correct place on your website and doesn't extend the entire width of the page.
1. To create a container, on Webflow, log into your Webflow account and go to your dashboard.
2. On your Webflow dashboard, you'll find a list of all your website projects, hover on the website you want to add the chatbot to and click on Open Designer.
3. On the designer page, click on the file icon (Pages) on the top left corner of the webflow site designer and select the page you want to embed the chatbot.
4. Once you've selected the page, click the Plus button (Add elements) on the top left corner of the designer screen, and a list of available elements should come up.
5. Drag the Section element to the portion of the page you want to embed your chatbot.
6. Drag a Container element unto the Section.
7. Drag a Div element unto the Container element and set the size of the Div element to ensure that the bot will be contained within the Div and does not span the entire width of the page.
8. Now, scroll down the list of elements and drag the Embed element unto the Div you added on the Webflow canvas.
9. Select and double-click the Embed element to reveal the HTML Embed code editor.
10. Paste the LemChat chatbot embed code from Step 2 above and click Save & Close.
If all goes well, you should see a preview of the chatbot on the live preview of your Webflow website right inside the designer.
🎉 Success!
After completing these steps, your chatbot should be ready to serve your website visitors!
If you are having difficulties with managing the dimension of your Embed and chatbot element, it is a common problem. Webflow components take a bit of getting used to. You can follow the official Webflow documentation on the Embed element to learn more about embedding a third-party tool like LemChat chatbot on a Webflow website.
Note: You can customize the appearance and colors of your bot on your LemChat dashboard. To do this, go to your dashboard, choose a bot, click the Settings tab on the top of the page, and then click Interface on the left sidebar to reveal the chatbot customization options.
