Timeline Widget — Add It to Your Website

Overview

What Timeline does

Timeline is an embeddable widget you drop into any website with a single snippet of code. Present your milestones and history as a visual timeline. It runs in its own isolated frame, so it can never clash with your site's own styles or scripts, and it resizes itself to fit wherever you place it.

The milestones shown in Timeline are managed from your myNaturevista dashboard — add, reorder or remove them whenever you like and the widget updates on your live site immediately. No redeploy, no developer, no touching your website's code a second time.

You control how it looks and behaves from 4 settings — theme, layout, accent colour, reveal milestones as visitors scroll. Pick the options that match your brand, save, and the change is live.

Like every widget in the myNaturevista business & engagement collection, Timeline is built to be fast and unobtrusive: it loads asynchronously so it never blocks your page, works on phones and desktops alike, and can be added to as many of your pages as you want.

Features

What you get

Milestones animate in as visitors scroll down your page.
Add a photo and an emoji icon to any milestone.
Your brand colour, light or dark theme, perfect on phones.
Add, edit and reorder milestones from your dashboard.

Setup

How to add Timeline to your site

Three steps, about two minutes, no build tools.

1

Add the loader once

Paste a single <script> tag before your closing </body> tag. One loader powers every myNaturevista widget on the page, so you only ever add it once.
2

Place the widget

Drop a small <div> wherever Timeline should appear — inside a column, a section, a sidebar, anywhere. It takes the width it is given and sets its own height.
3

Add your milestones

Add the events you want to show on the timeline, in the order they should appear. They appear in Timeline in the order you set, and you can change them at any time.

FAQ

Timeline — frequently asked questions

How do I add the Timeline widget to my website?

Add the myNaturevista loader script once before your closing </body> tag, then place a <div> with your widget id, API key and instance id wherever Timeline should appear. That is the whole installation — it works on any platform that lets you paste HTML, including WordPress, Shopify, Squarespace, Webflow and hand-written sites.

Do I need to know how to code to use Timeline?

No. If you can paste a snippet of HTML into your site once, you are done. Everything after that — settings, content and styling — is handled from your myNaturevista dashboard, with no further code changes.

Can I customise how Timeline looks?

Yes. Timeline exposes 4 settings: theme, layout, accent colour, reveal milestones as visitors scroll. Change them in the dashboard and your live site picks the new values up on the next page load.

Where does the content in Timeline come from?

From you. Add the events you want to show on the timeline, in the order they should appear. They appear in the widget in the order you choose, and updates are live immediately — you never have to touch your website again to change them.

Does Timeline work on mobile?

Yes. Timeline is responsive: it takes the width of the container you place it in and adjusts its layout and height for phones, tablets and desktops.

Will Timeline slow down my website?

No. The loader is asynchronous, so it never blocks your page from rendering, and the widget itself runs in an isolated frame that loads separately from your own content.

Can I use Timeline on more than one website?

Yes. Each website you own gets its own API key and its own configuration, so the same widget can show different settings and content on each domain.

Which plans include Timeline?

Timeline is available on the following plans: Free, Starter, Business, Enterprise. You can change plan at any time from your dashboard.
