How to Insert Header and Footer Scripts

This article shows you how to add header and footer scripts (sometimes called snippets) to a single page. This is a unique page-level tool. It's different from scripts that affect your entire website.

Why add script?

Scripts are small pieces of code that add functions or design elements to a page. Some examples include:

  • tracking code for on-page ads 
  • analytics code
  • custom style sheets
  • custom fonts
