Welcome to this tutorial on how to upload a Webflow JS file! In this guide, we will walk you through the step-by-step process of uploading a JavaScript file in Webflow. So let’s get started!
Step 1: Accessing the Project Settings
The first thing you need to do is access the project settings in your Webflow dashboard. To do this, navigate to your project and click on the “Project Settings” button located in the top-right corner of the screen.
Step 2: Uploading the JS File
Once you are in the project settings, scroll down until you find the “Custom Code” section. Here, you will see an option labeled “Add Custom Code in </head> tag”. Click on this option.
Note: It is important to upload your JS file within the </head> tag for optimal performance and compatibility.
In the code editor that appears, you can add your JavaScript file using an HTML <script> tag. You have two options for adding your file:
- External URL: If your JS file is hosted externally (e.g., on a CDN or another server), you can simply include its URL within the
<script>tag like this:<script src="https://example.com/js/myfile.js"></script> - Uploaded File: If you have a local copy of your JS file that you want to upload, you can use Webflow’s built-in file uploader. To do this, click on the “Upload File” button and select your JS file from your computer.
Once uploaded, the file will be automatically added to your project’s assets folder. You can then reference it using a relative path within the
<script>tag like this:<script src="/assets/js/myfile.js"></script>
Remember: If you choose to upload a local file, make sure to keep a backup copy of it in case you need to make changes or updates in the future.
Step 3: Save and Publish
After adding your JS file, click on the “Save Changes” button at the bottom of the code editor. This will save your changes to the project settings.
Finally, don’t forget to publish your website for the changes to take effect. Click on the “Publish” button located in the top-right corner of the Webflow dashboard.
Conclusion
Congratulations! You have successfully uploaded a JavaScript file in Webflow. By following these simple steps, you can easily integrate custom JavaScript code into your Webflow projects and enhance their functionality.
