What the code looks like
An updatable badge is a single line like this (the editor gives you yours). The self-contained version is longer but works the same way.
<script src="https://madebybadge.netlify.app/v1/badge.js" data-badge="YOUR_BADGE_ID" async></script>Not showing up?
- Check the published site, not an editor preview: most builders only run custom code on the live site.
- Make sure the whole snippet was pasted, including the closing </script> tag.
- Use "Test page" in the Maker Badge code dialog to confirm the badge itself works.
