Inline Widget

.md

Developer reference for the Custom Inline Widget — cookies, query parameters, and custom JavaScript rules.

Cookies

Cookie Purpose Duration
xgeo-session Cached geolocation data (shared across all embeds) 7 days
xgeo-off Dev mode — disables all redirects 7 days

Query Parameters (All Embeds)

These query parameters work across all embeds and are useful during development and testing:

Parameter Purpose
?xgeo-sim=1 Activates the Geo Simulator overlay — simulate visits from any country
?xgeo-sim=0 Deactivates the Geo Simulator overlay
?xgeo-off Disables all redirects for 7 days (sets a cookie)
?xgeo-reset Re-enables redirects (removes the xgeo-off cookie)
?xgwir=1 Loop prevention — appended to inline redirect URLs by default. When present, the inline widget skips rendering. Note: the popup widget uses ?xgwr=1; the inline widget uses ?xgwir=1.

Custom JavaScript Rule (Pro)

Pro plan only. Filter which dropdown options are visible using a custom function.

How to Add Custom Code

  1. Go to Geolocation Flow Dashboard → Custom Widget Redirects → Customize inline dropdown
  2. Scroll down to the Advanced section
  3. Paste your custom JavaScript into the Custom button display rule field
  4. Click Save

Parameters

Parameter Description
geolocation { country: "CA", country_name: "Canada", continent: "NA" }
redirectButton { label: "Canada", url: "https://ca.store.com", ... }
