Add a changelog widget to WordPress in 4 minutes

Turn shipped work into updates your WordPress users actually see. Add a <15kb, zero-dependency widget with unread badges, markdown release notes, emoji reactions and dark mode—without rebuilding your site.

  1. 1

    Create your workspace and first release

    Sign up for LogPulse, choose a workspace slug and publish an update. The example uses acme: replace it with your own workspace slug before publishing.

  2. 2

    Open Dashboard → Code Snippets → Header & Footer (WPCode)

    Install and activate WPCode via Plugins → Add New Plugin. Paste the embed into its Footer field and save. Alternatively, Appearance → Theme File Editor → footer.php can work for classic themes: use a child theme and place the snippet before the closing body tag.

  3. 3

    Publish and verify on your live site

    Clear page-cache and optimization plugins, then inspect the public site in a private window. Block themes may not expose footer.php; prefer the plugin method. Open the widget, read an update and check the unread badge. Your hosted changelog lives at /your-workspace and your roadmap at /your-workspace/roadmap on the LogPulse origin.

Your installation code

Replace acme with your workspace slug. Install one loader only; the custom-trigger example below replaces the default embed, rather than adding another copy.

WordPress installation
<script src="https://release-ripple-roadmap.lovable.app/widget.js" data-workspace="acme" data-mode="popover" data-position="bottom-right" data-theme="auto" async></script>

Use your own What's new button

Give a real button the ID whats-new and connect data-trigger to it. In a framework, add the same data-trigger attribute to your loader and render the button in your component. Keep the target present when the widget initializes.

Custom trigger · replace the default embed
<button id="whats-new" type="button">What's new</button>
<script src="https://release-ripple-roadmap.lovable.app/widget.js" data-workspace="acme" data-mode="popover" data-position="bottom-right" data-theme="auto" data-trigger="#whats-new" async></script>

Prefer the JavaScript API?

Initialize only after the script loads. The manual example is an alternative to the automatic loader.

Manual initialization for plain HTML
<script src="https://release-ripple-roadmap.lovable.app/widget.js" data-manual async
  onload="LogPulse.init({ workspace: 'acme', mode: 'popover', theme: 'auto' })"></script>
<button type="button" onclick="if (window.LogPulse) LogPulse.open()">What's new</button>
<!-- After the script loads: LogPulse.close() or LogPulse.toggle() -->
