Troubleshooting

The Widget Does Not Load

Check the URL first:

https://pointr.org/en/widget/booking/your-business-slug

Make sure:

  • The locale is supported.
  • The widget type is valid.
  • The business slug exists.
  • The host page allows iframes from https://pointr.org.

The Widget Is Clipped

Increase the iframe height. Also check the parent container for:

  • overflow:hidden
  • fixed heights
  • hidden tab panels
  • sliders that lazy-render content

The Widget Has Horizontal Scroll

Make sure the iframe uses width="100%" and the parent container is not narrower than the intended layout. Avoid fixed pixel widths on small screens.

The Language Is Wrong

The locale is part of the URL.

/en/widget/booking/...
/de/widget/booking/...
/ro/widget/booking/...

Use the locale that matches the page or visitor.

The Booking Flow Requires Sign-In

The current Booking Widget MVP uses the Pointr booking flow. If the customer is not authenticated, Pointr may ask them to sign in before final submission.

WordPress Removes The Iframe

Use a Custom HTML block while signed in as an administrator. Some security plugins remove iframe tags for editors or authors.

Shopify Or Webflow Shows Extra Space

Reduce the iframe height for compact widgets, or wrap the iframe in a container with a clear max-width.
