Install Benson on Shopware

Shopware 6 has no box for head scripts in the Administration. Add Benson through a storefront template in your theme or plugin using one small Twig file. Choose Other as your platform in the setup wizard.

Your snippet#

Your real snippet, with your site key, is in the setup wizard and under Settings → Install:

<script async src="https://cdn.trybenson.com/benson.js" data-site="pk_live_YOUR_SITE_KEY"></script>

Add it to Shopware#

1. In your theme or plugin, create src/Resources/views/storefront/layout/meta.html.twig with the template below, and paste your snippet where indicated.
2. Activate the theme or plugin. If it's a theme, assign it to your sales channel.
3. Clear the cache with bin/console cache:clear.

{% sw_extends '@Storefront/storefront/layout/meta.html.twig' %}

{% block layout_head_javascript_hmr_mode %}
    {{ parent() }}
    {# Paste your Benson snippet here #}
{% endblock %}

The block is in Shopware 6.5, 6.6 and 6.7.

Check it's live#

Open your store in a normal browser tab. The setup wizard shows Verified: Benson is live within a few seconds. If it doesn't, see Troubleshooting.

Good to know#

• Shopware's checkout pages use the same layout, so the snippet reaches checkout. Benson hides extension pop-ups and guards the coupon field there.
• If your store uses Shopware's cookie consent, Consent and storage lists what Benson stores in the browser.
