What is thePlus.so for Google Sites?

thePlus.so is a widget tool that works with Google Sites. You build a countdown timer, image carousel, announcement banner, clock or visitor counter in the thePlus.so dashboard and copy one link. In Google Sites you choose Insert, then Embed, paste the link under the By URL tab and press Insert. Because the widget is hosted by thePlus.so, you edit it in the dashboard and every Google Sites page that shows it updates, without opening the site editor. The free plan includes 2 widgets and needs no credit card. Pro costs $60 a year, or $6 a month, and adds unlimited widgets, image upload up to 10 MB, full analytics and priority support, and it removes the thePlus.so badge. thePlus.so was formerly called NotionPlus.

The embed link must be https

Google Sites embeds content by URL, so the link has to start with https. Links from thePlus.so already do.

FAQ

Questions about Google Sites

How do I add a widget to Google Sites?

Create a widget in thePlus.so and copy its link. In the Google Sites editor choose Insert, then Embed, paste the link under By URL and press Insert. Open Preview to see it, then publish.

Why is the widget box empty in the Google Sites editor?

In our test the editor showed an empty frame while Preview showed the widget. Open Preview or the published page to check it. If it is still empty there, make sure the link starts with https and that the widget still exists in your dashboard.

Do I need to publish my Google Site first?

Visitors see the widget on the published site. You can check it before publishing with Preview.

Does it work with a free Google account?

Google Sites and the thePlus.so free plan are both free, so you can set up and test the whole thing without paying. The free plan has 2 widgets and needs no credit card.

Can I use one widget on several pages?

Yes. Paste the same link on as many pages or sites as you like. When you edit the widget, every copy updates.

What happens if I cancel?

You drop back to the free plan. Two widgets stay active and none of your data is deleted.

Does it work on other site builders?

Yes, anywhere that supports embeds. Notion has its own page, and all widgets are listed here.
