2. Click on "Tabs" in the left sidebar
3. Click "Add Tab" and choose "New Tab"
4. Give your Product Roadmap a name

   • Add and organize your content as needed

You can edit your content directly in the Product Roadmap tab at any time.

Step 3. Create a Widget for Your Product Roadmap

Now, let's get your Product Roadmap live on your site:

4.2 Implement Your Chosen Integration Method

Depending on the method you chose in Step 3, use the appropriate code:

Iframe Method:

<iframe src="YOUR_IFRAME_URL" data-productlift-link width="100%" height="600px" frameborder="0"></iframe>

Replace YOUR_IFRAME_URL with the URL provided in your ProductLift widget settings.

Sidebar Method:

<button class="productlift-sidebar=YOUR_WIDGET_ID">Open Product Roadmap</button>

Replace YOUR_WIDGET_ID with your unique widget ID from the ProductLift dashboard.

Embed Method:

<div class="productlift-embed=YOUR_WIDGET_ID"></div>

Replace YOUR_WIDGET_ID with your unique widget ID from the ProductLift dashboard.

That's it!

Your Product Roadmap should now be live on your Bigcartel site.

Troubleshooting Tips

• If the widget doesn't appear, double-check your code implementation
• Try clearing your Bigcartel cache
• Check your browser's console for any error messages
• Some platforms may have a delay in displaying new widgets, so give it a few minutes if needed
