What it is
Your brand, your placement, your rules
Widget customization is how the AskSpot chat is made to fit your storefront – its name, colour, avatar and welcome message, the launcher button on desktop and mobile, and the finer control of where it shows and how it looks, down to custom CSS and JavaScript.
Step 01
Brand it
Set the name, primary colour, avatar, welcome message and privacy text – with a live preview.
Step 02
Place it
Position the launcher on desktop and mobile – side, offset, delay, label and display mode.
Step 03
Fine-tune it
Add custom CSS or JS, hide it on chosen pages, or open it from your own button.
01 · Appearance
Make it look like your shop
Set the widget’s name, primary colour, assistant name and avatar, the welcome message and a short privacy line – and see every change in a live preview before it goes out.
- Primary colour by HEX, assistant name and avatar or logo
- Custom widget title, welcome message and privacy text
- Live preview as you edit – no guesswork
02 · The launcher
The button, exactly where you want it
Control the button that opens the chat, set separately for desktop and mobile – so it fits any storefront without touching the theme’s code.
- Show or hide the button and its label, per device
- Screen side, horizontal and vertical offset, and width
- Appearance delay and display layer, so it never collides
03 · Fits any storefront
Fine control when you need it
Beyond the panel settings, the widget bends to how your store is built – three display modes, your own CSS and JavaScript, rules to hide it on certain pages, and a custom trigger to open the chat from any element on the page.
- Three display modes for how the chat sits on the page
- Custom CSS and JS, and page rules to hide it where it shouldn’t show
- Open the chat from your own button with a custom trigger

Why it matters
An assistant that looks native, not bolted on
Shoppers trust what looks like part of the store. When the chat carries your name, your colour and sits exactly where it belongs, it reads as your shop helping – and a widget that fits the brand gets opened and used.

FAQ
Widget customization – questions answered
Can I match the chat to my brand colours?
Yes. You set the primary colour by HEX, the assistant’s name and avatar, the widget title, the welcome message and a short privacy line – with a live preview as you edit.
Does it work differently on mobile?
The launcher is configured separately for desktop and mobile – you control whether it shows, its label, side, offsets, width and appearance delay on each, so it fits every screen.
Can I control where the button appears, or hide it on some pages?
Yes. You set the launcher’s position and layer so it never collides with your theme, and you can hide the widget on specific pages with display rules.
Can I open the chat from my own button?
Yes. A custom trigger lets you open the chat from any element on the page – your own “Ask us” button or a link – instead of the default launcher.
Do I need a developer?
No – the branding and launcher are all configured in the panel, no code needed. For finer control, custom CSS and JavaScript are there when you want them.
