How to add the WhatsApp icon in Tilda - in detail?

To successfully add a WhatsApp icon in Tilda, you need to follow several detailed steps. This process involves creating a link and adding it to your website. Here's how you can do it:

Firstly, create a direct link for the WhatsApp chat. The format of this link should be https://wa.me/[phone number], where you replace [phone number] with your actual phone number in international format (without the plus sign). For example, if your number is +1234567890, the link would look like this: https://wa.me/1234567890.

After creating the link, you need to add it to your Tilda website. Here’s how you can do that:

  1. Open Your Tilda Project: Log in to your Tilda account and open the project where you want to add the WhatsApp icon.
  2. Add a New Block: Navigate to the block where you wish to place the WhatsApp icon. You can either create a new block or use an existing one that suits your design needs.
  3. Insert a Button or Image: Depending on your preference, you can insert a button or an image that will serve as the WhatsApp icon. To do this:

    • Click on the "+" icon to add a new element.
    • Choose either "Button" or "Image" from the list of available elements.
  4. Customize the Button or Image: If you chose a button, customize its appearance by selecting an appropriate icon or text (e.g., "Chat with us on WhatsApp"). For an image, upload your desired WhatsApp icon.
  5. Link the Element to Your WhatsApp Chat:

    • Select the element you just added.
    • In the right-side panel, find the “Link” section.
    • Paste the WhatsApp link (https://wa.me/[phone number]) into the URL field.
  6. Save and Publish Your Changes: After linking the element to your WhatsApp chat, save your changes. Make sure to publish your project to make the updates live on your website.

By following these steps, you will have successfully added a WhatsApp icon to your Tilda website, allowing visitors to easily initiate a chat with you through WhatsApp.
