Widget Customization

Make the SimpleCommenter widget match your brand using the project theme and dashboard settings.

Widget appearance is managed from the dashboard. Embed script attributes do not override the saved project theme for color or position.

Color Customization

Primary Color

Set your brand color in Projects > Your Project > Theme.

This color is applied to:

  • The feedback button background
  • Primary action buttons
  • Active states and highlights
  • Links within the widget

Color Examples

Blue (default)#3B82F6Primary button color
Green#10B981Eco-friendly brands
Purple#8B5CF6Creative agencies
Orange#F97316Energetic products
Pink#EC4899Lifestyle brands

Text Customization

Button Text

Change widget copy from your dashboard settings rather than the embed script.

Popular alternatives:

  • "Feedback"
  • "Help"
  • "Report Bug"
  • "Suggestions"
  • "Contact Us"

Placeholder Text

Customize placeholder text via the dashboard under Settings > Widget:

  • Comment placeholder
  • Email placeholder
  • Name placeholder

Position Options

Control where the widget button appears from Projects > Your Project > Theme.

Supported saved positions:

  • bottom-right
  • bottom-center
  • bottom-left
  • side-right
  • side-left

The project theme controls widget placement. If the embed script includes data-position, it will not override the saved dashboard setting.

Advanced Styling

Use the project theme to control the widget's visual appearance. The current embed flow does not support per-script color or position overrides.

Dashboard Settings

Additional customization is available in your dashboard:

  1. Go to Projects > Your Project > Settings
  2. Navigate to the Widget tab
  3. Configure:
    • Logo upload
    • Thank you message
    • Required fields
    • Screenshot settings
    • Form fields
