How to Access SEATEXT Configuration in Odoo: Step-by-Step Guide

To access SEATEXT configuration in Odoo, log in to your Odoo account, go to the Website module, edit the page where you placed the SEATEXT Embed Code block, and click the Edit button on...

To access SEATEXT configuration in Odoo, you don't use a separate SEATEXT settings page. Instead, you edit the page where you placed the SEATEXT Embed Code block. Log in to your Odoo account, go to the Website module, open the page in edit mode, and click the Edit button on the Embed Code block to change the code or visibility settings. That's where the configuration lives.

What You Need Before You Start

Before you can access or change SEATEXT configuration in Odoo, make sure you have the following:

  • An Odoo account with the Website module enabled.
  • A SEATEXT AI account. If you don't have one, you can create it from the SEATEXT website.
  • The JavaScript code snippet provided by SEATEXT. This appears in your SEATEXT account under the code integration section.

If you haven't installed SEATEXT yet, follow the installation steps first. The configuration you're looking for becomes available only after the code is placed on a page.

Step-by-Step: Accessing SEATEXT Configuration in Odoo

Here's how to reach the SEATEXT configuration on any Odoo page:

  1. Log in to your Odoo account and access the Website module from the dashboard.
  2. Navigate to the page where you placed the SEATEXT Embed Code block. If you haven't added it yet, you'll need to do that first.
  3. Click the Edit button to open the editing panel.
  4. In the editing panel, scroll to the Dynamic Content section. You'll see the Embed Code module there.
  5. Click on the Embed Code block that contains the SEATEXT code. A right panel appears with an Edit button.
  6. Click Edit to open the code editor. Here you can paste a new code snippet or modify the existing one.
  7. After making changes, click Save to apply them.

That's it. The configuration is stored inside that block. You can also adjust visibility settings from the same panel.

Understanding the Configuration Options

When you access the SEATEXT Embed Code block, you have two main configuration areas:

Code Snippet

The JavaScript code itself. This is the core of SEATEXT. You can replace it with an updated version from your SEATEXT account. Make sure you copy the exact code from the SEATEXT dashboard—don't modify it unless you know what you're doing.

Visibility Settings

Odoo lets you control where the block appears. The SEATEXT integration guide specifically recommends selecting Hide on Desktop in the Visibility section. This ensures the block doesn't affect the visual layout on desktop devices. You can also set other visibility rules based on device or user groups.

These settings are part of Odoo's native block options, not SEATEXT-specific. But they affect how SEATEXT behaves on your site.

Common Mistakes When Configuring SEATEXT in Odoo

Here are frequent errors people make when accessing or editing SEATEXT configuration:

  • Placing the code in the wrong module. The Embed Code module must be dragged from the Dynamic Content section. Using a different block type may not execute the script.
  • Forgetting to hide on desktop. If you don't select Hide on Desktop, the block might show as an empty container or affect page layout.
  • Using a development URL. SEATEXT restricts localhost and dynamic development domains. Use a real, valid domain for testing.
  • Editing the code incorrectly. The snippet is generated for your specific account. Changing it can break the integration.
  • Not saving after editing. Always click Save in both the code editor and the block settings.

How to Verify Your SEATEXT Configuration

After you save changes, verify that SEATEXT is working correctly:

  1. Open your Odoo page in a browser (not in edit mode).
  2. Check that the page loads without errors. Open the browser's developer console (F12) and look for any JavaScript errors related to SEATEXT.
  3. Log in to your SEATEXT account and see if the site is recognized. The dashboard should show your domain as active.
  4. If you have an AI agent activated, test it by visiting the page with a specific keyword or campaign parameter.

If something isn't working, go back to the Embed Code block and confirm the code is exactly as provided by SEATEXT.

Limitations and Important Notes

SEATEXT configuration in Odoo has a few limitations you should know:

  • One domain per account. Each SEATEXT account is linked to a single primary URL. If you need SEATEXT on multiple domains (e.g., development and production), you must create separate accounts for each.
  • Development URLs are restricted. Localhost and dynamic development domains may not work. Use a real domain for testing.
  • No built-in Odoo settings page. SEATEXT doesn't add a menu item in Odoo's backend. All configuration happens through the Embed Code block on each page.
  • Code changes require page re-save. If you update the code, you must save the page again for changes to take effect.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to access SEATEXT configuration every time I want to change settings?

No. Most SEATEXT settings are managed from your SEATEXT dashboard, not from Odoo. The Odoo configuration is only for the initial code placement and visibility. After that, you control AI agents and behavior from your SEATEXT account.

Can I have SEATEXT on multiple Odoo pages?

Yes. You can add the same Embed Code block to multiple pages. Each block will contain the same SEATEXT code. You'll need to configure visibility for each block individually.

What if I accidentally delete the Embed Code block?

You can re-add it by dragging a new Embed Code module from the Dynamic Content section and pasting the SEATEXT code again. Your SEATEXT account settings remain intact.

Does SEATEXT configuration affect Odoo performance?

The script is lightweight and only activates when needed. Odoo's block system handles it like any other embedded code. If you notice slowdowns, check that you've hidden the block on desktop as recommended.

Can I use SEATEXT on a subdomain of my Odoo site?

SEATEXT accounts are linked to a single primary URL. If you use a subdomain, you'll need a separate account for that subdomain. Check with SEATEXT support for specific guidance.

How do I update the SEATEXT code in Odoo?

Copy the latest code from your SEATEXT dashboard, then edit the Embed Code block in Odoo and replace the old code. Save the page to apply the update.

How SEATEXT AI Agents Work With Your Odoo Site

Once you paste the JavaScript snippet into the Embed Code block and save the page, your Odoo site connects to the SEATEXT platform. From the SEATEXT dashboard you can activate AI marketing agents that run on your pages without further Odoo changes.

The CRO Optimizer agent rewrites headlines, offers, and CTAs in real time based on each visitor's search keyword or campaign. The Google Ads Agent matches landing page copy to the exact ad keyword that brought the visitor. The Translation Agent serves pages in 125 languages automatically. The Bot Protection Agent detects invalid clicks and builds refund evidence for Google and Meta. Each agent has one job and can be toggled on or off from the dashboard.

Because the snippet is already embedded via the Odoo Embed Code block, you don't need to edit Odoo again to deploy new agents. You simply activate them in the SEATEXT dashboard and they start working on every page that contains the snippet. This separation keeps Odoo clean while giving you a powerful optimization layer.
