How do I add an OpenTable widget to Wix?

Open Table Widget Fix for Wix: I installed an Open Table widget script for a restaurant client on their new Wix website, but it was showing up blank in the iframe HTML box on the live site and in the editor. I couldn't figure out why until I Googled "Open Table widget on Wix" and I found the Open Table instructions on how to insert it on Wix. The trick is to add <div></div> tags before and after the Script code they provide. Otherwise it won't display anything. Go figure! Easy fix but took me a minute to figure this out as it was not in the reservation widget page in the Open Table backend. So here it is for ya'll!


Instructions from Open Table:

Log in to Wix and navigate to the website editor. 

  1. Select the Add Elements . 

  2. Select Embed HTML.

  3. Use the What do you need to add? Menu and select Code. 

  4. Paste the reservation widget code into the box.

    • Note: Make sure your code is enclosed within <div> tags. Example: <div>WIDGET CODE</div>

    • Use the Widget Type setting in OpenTable for Restaurants to experiment with different-sized widgets. 

  5. Publish your updates. 

Below is a screenshot that shows the corrected code with the <div> tags added around the Open Table provided script/code that fixed the missing widget and made it magically appear!
