Install on Wix

Part of Waverunner’s always-on, site-measured performance stack. Wix has a built-in Custom Code panel for snippets like this one. No editing of your site's design is needed; it's all done from the dashboard.

First, copy your snippet

Your snippet is one line of code that looks like this, with YOUR_SITE_TOKEN replaced by a code that is unique to your website:

<script async src="https://waverunner.adwave.com/t/YOUR_SITE_TOKEN"></script>

Get the real one from your Waverunner account: sign in to copy your site's snippet. You'll land on the Tracking page, which shows your personalized snippet with a Copy snippet button. Each website (business) in your account has its own snippet. If you run more than one site, pick the right one with the switcher at the top of the page. Copy it there, then follow the steps below.

Don't copy the example above: it contains a placeholder instead of your real site token, so nothing would be recorded.

Add the snippet in Wix

  1. Go to your site's dashboard on Wix (not the editor).
  2. In the left menu, click Settings, then scroll to Custom Code(under "Advanced").
  3. Click + Add Custom Code.
  4. Paste your snippet into the code box.
  5. Name it Waverunner so you can recognize it later.
  6. Under Add Code to Pages, choose All pages and select Load code once. (The Waverunner tag detects page changes by itself. Reloading it on every page would count each visit twice.)
  7. Under Place Code in, choose Head.
  8. Click Apply.

If you don't see Custom Code

Wix only offers the Custom Code panel on paid plans with a connected domain. If your site is on the free plan or still on a wixsite.com address, upgrade and connect your domain first. The panel then appears under Settings.

Custom code doesn't run in the Wix editor preview. Make sure your site is published, then check the live site.

Check that it's working

  1. Open your website in a new browser tab and load any page.
  2. Go back to the Tracking page in Waverunner (you'll be asked to sign in if you aren't already). The banner at the top turns green on its own the moment your first visit arrives, usually within a few seconds. No need to reload the page.

If the banner stays amber after a minute, re-check the steps above: the most common causes are pasting the example snippet instead of your personalized one, or forgetting to save or publish the change.
