Platform-Specific Notes
- Static Site Generators: If you’re using a static site generator like Jekyll, Hugo, or Gatsby, add the Locadapt code to your base template or layout file.
- Single Page Applications (SPAs) and Server-Side Rendering (SSR): If you get hydration errors / the script doesn’t work, you may need to make use of the
data-defer-ssranddefertags on the Locadapt script. For details, see the frontend frameworks guide. - General Advice: You may also want to check out some other special attributes like
data-start-hiddenordata-link-prevent-defaultwhich may be relevant for your specific use case — see the relevant section in the frontend frameworks guide for more details.
Troubleshooting
If you are using a modern frontend framework and have issues with hydration, links not updating, or UI flickering, please see the frontend frameworks guide. There may not be a guide for your specific framework, but the details on e.g.
data-link-prevent-default will be highly relevant.- Verify that you’ve replaced
YOUR_PROJECT_IDwith your actual Locadapt project ID. - Ensure the Locadapt code is placed just before the closing
</head>tag. - Check your browser’s developer console for any JavaScript errors.
- Clear your browser cache and reload the page.
