What are social media and review widgets for Teachable?
Social media widgets for Teachable let you surface live content from Google, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, and other platforms directly on your school pages. Instead of manually updating screenshots or rewriting testimonials every time new proof appears, a Teachable review widget pulls content from connected sources and keeps it fresh automatically.
On a Teachable site, that can mean adding Google reviews to a sales page, placing an Instagram feed on a school page, embedding TikTok videos that make your offer feel more real, and showing shoppable UGC that points visitors toward the right product or next step. One embed handles the display, which is much cleaner than maintaining each proof section by hand.
Why use EmbedSocial on Teachable?
Teachable is designed for selling courses, coaching, and digital products, so trust carries a lot of weight on sales pages, product pages, and thank-you pages. Social proof needs to support that journey without becoming another thing you have to babysit.
EmbedSocial is a UGC and review management platform that combines AI-powered widget styling, automatic syncing, and moderation controls so your proof stays current while your team spends less time manually updating page sections.
From a single account, you can manage Google reviews, Instagram feeds, TikTok videos, YouTube content, Facebook posts, testimonials, social proof notifications, and shoppable galleries. That gives you one place to control how credibility shows up across your Teachable school instead of patching together several separate tools.
EmbedSocial also helps turn social content into action by letting you tag products or offers inside shoppable widgets, so visitors can move from seeing proof to clicking through with less friction.
Reviews refresh automatically every 10 minutes, social feeds continue updating in the background, and new content can appear on your Teachable pages within minutes of being published.
You can start with 200+ templates or use the AI vibe editor to generate a design from a simple prompt.

How to add social media widgets to Teachable
Follow these steps to embed any EmbedSocial widget on your Teachable site:
-
Step 1: Create your EmbedSocial account
Sign up for a free EmbedSocial account at embedsocial.com. Choose one of 200+ templates or use the AI vibe editor to generate the layout you want.
-
Step 2: Connect your sources
Go to the Sources tab and connect the platforms you want to use, Google Business Profile for reviews, Instagram for posts and stories, TikTok for videos, YouTube for playlists, or Facebook for posts and reviews.
-
Step 3: Customize your widget
Choose a layout such as slider, grid, carousel, wall of love, or masonry. Apply filters by rating, keyword, or content type. Then adjust colours, fonts, spacing, and other style settings so the widget matches your Teachable site.
-
Step 4: Copy your embed code
Open the Embed tab inside the widget editor and copy the JavaScript snippet for your widget.
-
Step 5: Add the widget to your Teachable pages
In Teachable, the cleanest method is to add a Custom HTML block to the page where you want the widget and paste your embed code into that block. Teachable’s Help Center says the Custom HTML block is designed for adding custom HTML snippets to pages in Page Editor 2.0, and its page editor is used for school pages and product pages, such as sales and thank-you pages.
For lesson content, Teachable’s lesson editor also supports blocks such as code snippets and media embeds, so embedded content can be added in course lessons as well, depending on the use case. Teachable also offers a Power Editor for deeper template-level customisation, but its own documentation flags this as an advanced option and notes compatibility is not guaranteed.
That gives you practical placement options across school pages, product sales pages, thank-you pages, and some lesson contexts. Need help placing widgets on specific Teachable pages? Contact our support team via live chat or email.
Note: The free plan supports a Google Maps source with a badge and currently shows 5 random Google reviews. For full review imports, shoppable widgets, and advanced controls, use a paid plan after the free trial. For Teachable-ready UGC and testimonials, check the shoppable widget page.
