First steps
Let's set up Peeks Customer Feedback in less than 5 minutes.
(PS, there might be a couple of Lifetime Deals left, get one now and never have to pay for a Peeks subscription again)
What you'll need
- a website you want to get feedback from
- an email address to receive customer feedback on
- the ability to add a simple code snippet to your website
Sign up and choose your Account Plan
Sign up on the Peeks Portal by adding a sign up email and password.
After signing up you'll need to verify your email address by clicking the verification link sent to the email you signed up with.
This will then sign you in to the Peeks Portal and you'll immediately be redirected to the Account page.
Choosing your Account Plan
Choose one of the plans appropriate for your needs.
Also add your business details, like the email you'd like to receive invoices on(mandatory), your business telephone number(optional), business address(optional) and company registration number(optional).
Save your account details on the top right of the page by clicking the Save
button.
You will then be redirected to the Dashboard, where you can add your first website to set up Peeks.
Adding Peeks to your website
Next, we have to create a profile for your website on the Peeks system.
Click the ADD WEBSITE
button and give your website a name. Click the newly created Peeks website listing to be taken to your Website Details page.
There you can set things like;
- the name of your website
- the email address where you'd like to receive feedback on
When you add Peeks to your website and reload it for the first time, your website URL will be permanently locked to this unique Peeks profile. This means the websites' Peeks profile will ONLY work from that URL host.
This is done in order to prevent abuse and spam.
DO NOT ACTIVATE YOUR WEBSITE PROFILE ON LOCALHOST OR SOME OTHER DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT OTHER THAN PRODUCTION
If you would like to set up Peeks on localhost
, staging
and production
, for instance, you would need to create a different Peeks Website for each.
Installing Peeks on WordPress
Peeks is not on the official WordPress plugin registry yet, since it's still in alpha, but you can download and install the plugin manually.
On your Website Details page, scroll down to the WordPress section, where you'll find
a link to Google Drive with the Peeks WordPress Plugin
your website's unique Peeks Key
After downloading the plugin, called
peeks-wp-plugin.zip
, head over to your WordPress admin page.
Click on Plugins on the left, click Add New
on the top of the page and then Upload Plugin
. You can then select and upload the plugin file and activate it.
Then click on Settings > Peeks. Paste your website profile Peeks Key into the API Key input field. Then click save. Then head over to your website home page and refresh the page. Your Peeks widget should load within a couple of seconds.
Installing Peeks on Webflow
On your Website Details, scroll down and click to copy your widget code.
Then head over to your Webflow editor and click on the W on the top left of the editor and then Project Settings
. Then after the Webflow Project Settings page loads, click on the Custom Code
heading on the top right.
Paste the widget code into the Head Code
section and hit save. Then click to publish.
Visit your Webflow website and presto! Your Peeks widget should load!
Installing Peeks on HTML
You can also use your unique Peeks widget snippet in a regular HTML page, adding it inside the <head>
tag of every page you want the Peeks Customer Feedback widget to load on.
After you've added your widget snippet to your website, reload the page to activate your Peeks Website. You should see the Peeks Feedback
button load after a couple of seconds.
Your Peeks widget is now live and ready to receive juicy customer feedback!
