Do I need a WordPress plugin to use Launch Queue?

No. Launch Queue works by pasting a small HTML snippet into a Custom HTML block. There is no plugin to install, configure, or keep updated. This also means fewer security risks and no plugin conflicts.

Does it work with page builders like Elementor or Divi?

Yes. Both Elementor and Divi have HTML or code embed elements. In Elementor, use the "HTML" widget. In Divi, use the "Code" module. Paste the Launch Queue embed code and save.

Can I add the waitlist widget to my WordPress sidebar?

Yes. Go to Appearance > Widgets in your WordPress dashboard, add a "Custom HTML" widget to your sidebar, and paste the Launch Queue embed code. The widget will render in your sidebar on every page.

Will the widget slow down my WordPress site?

No. The Launch Queue widget script is loaded asynchronously, which means it does not block your page from rendering. The script is lightweight and hosted on a CDN for fast delivery worldwide.
