I’m having trouble integrating Google Web Stories into my homepage. I’ve tried adding them as a widget, but with no success. Considering the increasing importance of supporting Google Stories, I’d like to ask for the community’s help. Has anyone encountered a similar situation and found a solution? I’m open to suggestions, tips, and guidance on effectively incorporating these visual stories into my homepage. I appreciate any assistance offered in advance!
assuming you looked at the Google info?

Hello,
Please let me know what plugin you use for Google web stories. You can set the post type here on the block to display them, or if the plugin provides a shortcode https://prnt.sc/I3E2WxQNuDEt -> https://prnt.sc/NQN9_1LFhW_O -> https://wp.stories.google/docs/best-practices/, you can set it in column text https://i.imgur.com/fxQe6rl.png
Thank you!
Sure. I don’t know much about coding, can you help me with a Shortcode, so that the WebStories look like the image below? I inserted it into the Widget section, is it possible for me to extract the shortcode?
With I extract code its something like:
<!– wp:web-stories/embed {“blockType”:”latest-stories”,”viewType”:”carousel”,”fieldState”:{“show_title”:true,”show_author”:true,”show_date”:true,”show_image_alignment”:false,”show_excerpt”:false,”show_sharp_corners”:false,”show_archive_link”:true,”show_circle_size”:false,”show_number_of_columns”:false}} /–>
Maybe this Instagram-like Story format would look cool for the mobile version. But how can I make it so that if someone wants to watch others, they can swipe their finger to see the rest? Because it’s currently stuck… they can’t swipe sideways.
Hello,
Please let me know which plugin you use. Also, please check the guide.
Thank you!
Hi Anamaria, I use the original plugin Stories from Google
Hello,
After you create the template for stories, you can set it to this shortcode in column text -> https://i.imgur.com/nWLUbqR.png -> https://i.imgur.com/DMuNS2S.png -> https://i.imgur.com/xTXhnfF.png
Thank you!
So as I explained, this I managed to do. But how do I make it instead of the round dot way, to be rectangular and like the image below?
Hi,
You can set it to it in a block -> https://prnt.sc/4VKy-b4Igl78 and the you can customize it as you want https://prnt.sc/4VKy-b4Igl78 web-story
Thank you!
Now, yes! There’s one more detail, you mentioned that I could customize it my way. But you sent the same image đ … Can you send me the image where I can customize it? To make it look like the widget I sent below?
Is it possible to add the widget to the home screen? Because it’s perfect…”
Thanks! How do I use the Widget on the home page?
Hi,
You can add the flex block where you want.
Thank you!
Hi can I do this? Can you explain to me? How to add a widget like photo below on my home page?
Hi,
You can do it as I said; you need to make the changes on the block on the image, gap, and whatever you want https://i.imgur.com/Ic3cMAD.png
Thank you!
Hi Anamaria, how can I save the shortcode in the column text? after I type in “[web stories]” I close the WP editor but nothing changes.
Hi,
This shortcode is saved automatically; please save the content and check in the front end.
Thank you!
