There are two options for installing twcsl on your site depending on if your site is on a paid plan or in a trial period. Use only one of the install options. Be sure to save the changes you make when given the opportunity.
-
Paid Plan Install Steps
-
Step 1
In your web browser visit the following URL.
https://d1j8mu9lowy9zf.cloudfront.net/twcsl/0.3.3/twcsl-min.js
The twcsl-min.js file will be downloaded to your computer.
-
Step 2
In Pages > Not Linked add a Link page and link to the twcsl-min.js file.
-
Step 3
Add the following to Website > Pages > Website Tools > Code Injection > HEADER.
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="/s/twcsl-min.js"></script>
-
The paid plan install steps are finished.
-
-
Trial Period Install Steps
-
Step 1
Add the following to Website > Pages > Website Tools > Code Injection > HEADER.
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
-
Step 2
In your web browser visit the following URL.
https://d1j8mu9lowy9zf.cloudfront.net/twcsl/0.3.3/twcsl.min.html
The twcsl.min.html file will display in your browser.
-
Step 3
Copy the entire contents of the page and add it to Website > Pages > Website Tools > Code Injection > HEADER after the previously installed code. jQuery must be before the twcsl code.
-
The trial period install steps are finished.
-
Once your site is out of the trial period you may want to switch over to the paid plan install. Just reverse the trial period install steps and then follow the paid plan install steps.
