How does Custom Code work with Webflow (note: paid account required)
To use custom code on a Webflow site, your site needs to have a basic site plan, or belong to a workspace on a core, growth or enterprise workspace plan. Furthermore, you can only use HTML, CSS and JavaScript when using custom code in Webflow. More strictly, you can’t use <html>, <body>, or <head> tags in your custom code or your page will break.
With those out of the way, here’s a list of all the ways you can add custom code to a Webflow site.

Add Custom React components
This is a great video explaining how to add a custom react component using a target div in a Webflow page.
React Components in Webflow (in under 5 minutes)
1. Add the react library using their cdn links in the header of your webflow page.
2. Create a target div with an id in your webflow page for rendering your react component
3. Optional — for styling using Webflow:
- Create a Webflow template of the react component you’re about to build.
- So far you use the same class names and HTML structure in your react component, the styles you create in Webflow will apply to your react component.
4. Create a react component that is configured to be rendered through your given target div.
5. Next you can either copy in your source code for your react component, or bundle it and include it with an external script in the footer or header sections.
Using React Source Code
6. Copy in your react source code into an embed element or into the footer of your webflow page before the closing </body> tag.
Using Bundled React Code
7. Bundle your react component using webpack, rollup, microbundle, vitejs, create-react-app, e.t.c
8. Include your bundle script in the footer section of your webflow page before the closing </body> tag.
Note: Remember to publish your site to see your react component.
Add Custom Vue components
1. Add the vue library using their bundled build in the footer or header sections of your webflow page.
2. Create a target div with an id in your webflow page for mounting your vue component
3. Optional — for styling using Webflow:
- Create a Webflow template of the vue component you’re about to build.
- So far you use the same class names and HTML structure in your vue component, the styles you create in Webflow will apply to your vue component.
4. Create a vue component that is configured to be mounted in your given target div.
5. Next you can either copy in your source code for your vue component, or bundle it and include it with an external script in the footer.
Using Vue Source Code
6. Copy in your vue source code into an embed element or into the footer of your webflow page before the closing </body> tag.
Using Bundled Vue Code

Embed custom HTML - Webflow tutorial
- Open the Add Elements panel
- Scroll down till you see the Embed component, and add it to your page.
- Once you’ve added it to your page, double click the embed element to open it and begin adding custom code.
- Publish your site when you’re ready to see your code in action.
Note: Webflow places these embed components in order of how you place them within the page, so be careful to place embeds after the HTML elements they modify otherwise by the time they run the HTML elements they’re modifying won’t yet exist on the page.
Embed HTML in Rich Text Elements
Use the rich text embed when you want an embed to show up on just one blog page.
This is most useful for guest editors modifying blog pages who need to add popular embeds such as Youtube and Twitter embeds.
- Add a rich text element to your page
- Go into editor mode
- Enter into a new line for the + add icon to show up, click the add icon and select the embed option.
- Grab an embed code from the platform of your choice and paste it in.
- Publish your site to see your custom code in action.
Here’s a great video showing how to add a rich text embed.
Custom code in the Webflow CMS – Micro lesson #13
Note: Webflow should support any platform that generates an embed code, but they explicitly list support for these platforms:
Where to put each custom code (Header, footer, in the page)
<link>, <meta>, and <style> tags should always go inside the <head> tag. In other words, put your external css stylesheets and font families in the header. Other elements that can be in the header are <title>, <base>, <noscript>, and <template>.
<script></script> tags can be added inside the <head> tag, but they’re best added before the closing </body> tag. Just make sure you’re adding the script before using methods and functions from the script.
JS Libraries
Jquery
There’s no need to include the Jquery library because Webflow uses Jquery.
As of August 2020, newly published Webflow sites include jQuery v3.5.1. Importing other versions of jQuery with custom code may cause conflicts and unexpected behavior on your site.
Other Libraries
Most other libraries you may want to include such as gsap, three.js, can be included using their cdn links with the script tag in the header section of the page where you need them.
- Copy their CDN links.
- Include as script in the footer or header section of your webflow page.
Tips for Custom Code
How to avoid repetition
- To avoid repetition, place your HTML Embed inside a Symbol and reuse it across pages.
How to avoid bugs
- To avoid bugs, write your JS in a text editor with code formatting then paste it into Webflow.
How to test your JS code
- Always test your JS - you can test your JS code using console.log statements while using the browser console to see printed output.
How to run your custom code
- Remember to publish your site to see the latest version of your custom code in action.
How to get past the 10K character limit
- There’s a 10k character limit for code in the Embed element, and here’s how to overcome it:
Option 1:
- Split your code up into multiple Embed elements
Option 2:
- Host your code on a server and include as an external resource using the link
