Reactions

Reactions is a free reaction bar you can add to any page — Microsoft Fluent 3D smilies or a five-star rating. It has its own one-line embed and is independent of Conversations.

<script src="https://gabden.com/reactions.js" data-gabden-reactions="YOUR_SITE_KEY"></script>

Copy the exact snippet (with your real site key) from Dashboard → your site → Reactions → Install.

Where it renders

By default the bar renders inline where the script tag sits. To place it somewhere specific, add an empty container and the widget mounts into it:

<div id="gabden-reactions"></div>
<script src="https://gabden.com/reactions.js" data-gabden-reactions="YOUR_SITE_KEY"></script>

Each page is keyed by its canonical URL — the widget reads <link rel="canonical">, falling back to the current URL without its fragment. Every page keeps its own counts. Reactions are only recorded for pages on your registered site domain.

Customizing

Everything is configured in the dashboard (no code changes needed) and applies instantly:

• Style — smilies or a five-star rating.
• Reactions shown — pick any of Love, Haha, Wow, Sad, Fire, Celebrate, Adore.
• Alignment — left, center, or right.
• Size — 24–72px.
• Prompt — the short line above the bar (e.g. "How did this make you feel?").

Privacy

Reactions is privacy-first by design:

• Only aggregate counts per page are stored — never who reacted.
• No cookies and no tracking. A visitor's own selections are remembered in their browser's localStorage so the widget can show what they picked and prevent double-counting.
• No IP addresses or visitor records are kept.

The stats in your dashboard (totals, per-reaction breakdown, top pages) are computed from those aggregate counts alone.

Free, with a small credit

Reactions is free on every plan. A tiny gabden mark sits under the bar — that's the only cost. It is removed automatically on any site upgraded to Plus.
