Recently I was helping out @dynamo set up a Talk.js integration with a site he was making. I made this demo site to help which I thought could be useful for others.
This demonstrates using the Webflow CMS as a sort of mini database and conditionally passing values into a JavaScript function.
The example in my demo site is of a modelling agency where you can select a model and launch a live chat with their agent. The site’s CMS has 2 collections; agents and models. Each model has a dynamic link to their agent within their entry in the CMS.
On the model’s CMS template page, I pass in the model’s agent’s name, user id and email to the page in plain text. The idea is that you would hide it in a real world situation, but leave it present on the page. This is because behind the scenes there is some custom code which reads this info and passes it into a Talk.js function to initiate chat.
Hi @jasondark, this looks great! I’m trying to replicate this integration but your read-only is 404. Hopefully you’ll read this message and may be able to re-share the read only link.
