How to change position of HubSpot chat icon

SOLVE

Hi,

Please can someone tell me how to change the position of the HubSpot chat icon. We have an embed code (JavaScript) and the chat icon appears on the bottom right. Can we change this position, say to bottom left?

Thanks in advance,
J

Hi @j_j,

At this time, it is not possible to reposition the live chat widget.

I certainly see value in being able to do so, however. I recommend upvoting and commenting on this HubSpot Community Idea to help it become a reality. This information is sent directly to our Product team and helps prioritize feature requests that have the greatest impact on our customers. I’ve already upvoted the idea and will also do my part and pass your feedback along through internal channels.

Hello, 

 

Now we are able to change the side of the chat icon. Please go to settings > Tools: Inbox > Inboxes > Channels: Chat: view > Chat widget placement - See image below:

This has been an option for a while now. Settings > Inbox > Inboxes > Choose your inbox in the dropdown > Hover your mouse on the Chat channel section and click on Edit > You can here choose where to display the widget on your website.

I was wondering the same thing. It must be doable via either CSS or by editing the associated PHP with hubspot plugin for wordpress. Looking into it, it's !important.

hi,

 

it's been a few years since this was asked. has this feature made it to the roadmap yet? i think this would be a very useful feature to add.

 

it would be great to move it as it currently intereferes with our cookie warning and i believe the recaptcha v3 widget on some pages.

 

thanks,

jp
