Troubleshooting tips specific to Showit
Before You Start
Requirements:
An active AllAccessible account with a Site ID
Access to your Showit Design App
Google Chrome browser (recommended for the Showit Design App)
What You'll Need:
Your Account ID (found in your AllAccessible dashboard under Sites)
Time Required: 2-5 minutes
Step 1: Get Your Installation Code
Log in to your AllAccessible dashboard
Click Sites in the left menu
Find your site and click the Installation or Get Code button
Copy the JavaScript snippet
Your code will look like this:
<script>
(function(d) {
var s = d.createElement("script");
s.setAttribute("data-accessible-account-id", "YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID");
s.setAttribute("id", "allAccessibleWidget");
s.async = true;
s.setAttribute("src", "https://api.allaccessible.org/widget/YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID.js");
d.head.appendChild(s);
})(document)
</script>
Replace YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID with your actual Account ID from the dashboard.
Step 2: Add the Code in Showit
Option A: All Pages at Once (Recommended)
This method adds the AllAccessible widget to every page on your Showit site using Global Custom Code.
Open your site in the Showit Design App
Go to your Site Settings (gear icon)
Look for Global Custom Code or Custom Head HTML under the site-wide settings
Click the code input area
Paste your AllAccessible script code
Click Save
This is the recommended approach because the widget will automatically appear on every page, including any new pages you create in the future.
Option B: Individual Pages Only
If you only want the widget on specific pages:
Open your site in the Showit Design App
Click on the page name you want to add the widget to
In the Properties Panel on the right, select the Advanced Settings tab
Click the Custom Head HTML box
Paste your AllAccessible script code in the popup window
Click Save
Repeat for each page where you want the widget
Step 3: Publish Your Site
After adding the code, you need to publish for the changes to go live:
Click Publish in the Showit Design App
Wait for the publish process to complete
Visit your live website to verify
Important: The widget will not appear in the Showit Design App preview. You must publish and visit your live site to see it.
Step 4: Verify Installation
Visit your live website (not the Showit editor)
Look for the accessibility button — it typically appears in the bottom-right corner of the page
Click the button to open the widget
Test a feature like increasing text size or changing contrast
If You Don't See the Widget
Check 1: Make sure you published
The widget only appears on your live published site, not in the Showit Design App.
Check 2: View Page Source
On your live site, right-click and select View Page Source
Press Ctrl+F (Windows) or Cmd+F (Mac) and search for "allaccessible"
You should see your script code in the source
Check 3: Clear your browser cache
Hard refresh: Ctrl+Shift+R (Windows) or Cmd+Shift+R (Mac)
Or try opening your site in an incognito/private browsing window
Check 4: Verify your domain
Log in to your AllAccessible dashboard
Go to Sites
Make sure your Showit domain is registered (check both www and non-www versions)
Troubleshooting
Cannot Paste Code in Showit
If you're unable to paste code in the Showit Design App:
Open Chrome Settings → Privacy and Security
Go to Site Settings → Permissions
Find Clipboard settings
Make sure
app.showit.comis allowed to read your clipboardRefresh the Showit Design App and try again
Widget Doesn't Appear After Publishing
Possible Causes:
Wrong Account ID — double-check the ID matches your dashboard
Domain not registered — add your exact Showit domain in the AllAccessible dashboard under Sites
Browser cache — try incognito mode or clear cache
Ad blocker — temporarily disable any ad blockers and test
Widget Appears on Some Pages But Not Others
If you used the per-page method (Option B), make sure you've added the code to each page individually. Consider switching to the global method (Option A) for site-wide coverage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will the widget appear in the Showit Design App?
A: No. The widget only appears on your live published site. You need to publish and visit your site to see it.
Q: Do I need to add the code to every page?
A: No — if you use the Global Custom Code method (Option A), it applies to all pages automatically.
Q: Will the widget slow down my Showit site?
A: No. The widget loads asynchronously, meaning it won't block your page content from loading. Typical impact is less than 0.1 seconds.
