Pre‑Activation Checklist: Steps to Get SEATEXT Active on Your Thinkific Site

To get SEATEXT working on your Thinkific site you must first install the SEATEXT JavaScript snippet, then link your Thinkific domain to your SEATEXT account, and finally choose the languages and settings you want the AI to optimize. Once those steps are saved, SEATEXT begins to analyze traffic and generate variants.

The process does not require any course‑content changes; it works at the site‑level code level. Follow the checklist below to verify each requirement before moving on to the next step.

Prerequisites and Access

Before you start, make sure you have:

• Administrator access to your Thinkific admin dashboard.
• An active SEATEXT account with the appropriate AI agents enabled.
• The URL of the Thinkific site you want to connect (e.g., www.example.com).
• A browser that allows you to view and edit site footer code.

These items are required for the integration steps described in the SEATEXT Thinkific guide.

1. Install the SEATEXT JavaScript code on Thinkific

Log in to your Thinkific admin dashboard and navigate to Settings → Code & Analytics. In the Site Footer Code field paste the JavaScript snippet provided by SEATEXT. Click Save to store the code site‑wide.

1. Copy the JavaScript code from the SEATEXT Thinkific integration page.
2. Open Thinkific Admin Dashboard → Settings → Code & Analytics.
3. Paste the code into the Site Footer Code box.
4. Click Save.

This step makes the SEATEXT script load on every page of your Thinkific site.

2. Link your Thinkific site to your SEATEXT account

After the script is installed, you must associate the domain with your SEATEXT account so the platform can recognize traffic from your site.

1. In SEATEXT, open the website linking form and enter your Thinkific URL in the format www.example.com.
2. Visit your Thinkific site once and stay on any page for at least 40 seconds. This triggers the initial handshake.
3. Wait up to five minutes; you should see your site name appear next to the SEATEXT logo in the SEATEXT dashboard, confirming the link.

If the site name does not appear after ten minutes, re‑check the footer code placement and contact SEATEXT support.

3. Choose target languages and configure AI parameters

With the connection active, decide which languages SEATEXT should generate variants for and adjust any optional AI parameters.

1. In SEATEXT go to the Main AI Hub and click Configuration.
2. Select the languages you want to support (e.g., English, Spanish, French).
3. Adjust AI parameters such as translation depth or variant generation limits if desired.
4. Save the configuration.

These choices determine the content variations SEATEXT will serve to visitors.

What happens after activation

Once you publish the configuration, SEATEXT moves into the active state. The AI begins to monitor page requests, collect visitor signals, and apply the language and variant rules you set.

• Traffic data is streamed to the Main AI Hub in real time.
• For each page view, SEATEXT selects the most relevant variant based on language, keyword intent, and visitor context.
• Variants are served instantly, without a page reload.
• Performance metrics (click‑through, conversion, bounce) are recorded for each variant.

This continuous loop lets SEATEXT improve copy automatically and report results in the dashboard.

How SEATEXT generates variants

SEATEXT uses a large‑language‑model to rewrite headlines, calls‑to‑action, and other copy blocks. The process follows three steps, as described in the integration guide:

1. Analysis: The AI reads the original page content and extracts key messaging elements.
2. Generation: It creates alternative versions (variants) that match the selected language and visitor intent.
3. Testing: Variants are served to a subset of visitors. SEATEXT tracks engagement and promotes the best‑performing version.

The initial round of automatic translations and variants is available in the Variants Edit panel of the left navigation. You can review, edit, or manually create additional variants there.

4. Publish and verify the connection

After saving language and configuration settings, publish the changes and perform a final verification.

1. Click Activate in SEATEXT to lock in your selections.
2. Open an incognito browser window and navigate to your Thinkific site.
3. Check the page source for the SEATEXT script tag (should appear near the bottom).
4. Return to the SEATEXT dashboard and confirm that the AI status shows “Active” or “Running”.

If the script is missing, repeat step 1; if the status stays inactive, repeat step 2.

Troubleshooting

Symptom	Possible Cause	Resolution
Site name does not appear in dashboard	JavaScript snippet not saved or placed incorrectly	Verify the snippet is in Settings → Code & Analytics → Site Footer Code and click Save. Then wait another five minutes.
Script tag missing in page source	Cache serving an older version of the page	Clear browser cache or use an incognito window. Ensure the snippet was saved.
No variants shown to visitors	Languages not selected or AI parameters disabled	Open Main AI Hub → Configuration, confirm language list and enable variant generation.
High bounce rate after activation	Variants may be too aggressive or irrelevant	Go to Variants Edit, review each variant, and disable underperforming ones.
Dashboard still shows “Inactive” after 10 minutes	Handshake not completed	Visit the site again and stay for at least 40 seconds. If still inactive, contact SEATEXT support.

What to do after the checklist

Once SEATEXT is active, continue to monitor and refine:

• Review variant performance in the Main AI Hub weekly. Keep the top‑performing versions.
• Adjust language list if you add new markets or notice low traffic for a language.
• Enable additional AI agents (e.g., Google Ads Optimization, Translation) from the dashboard if you need more functionality.
• Export reports for stakeholder review or for A/B testing documentation.
• Contact support for any persistent errors not covered in the troubleshooting table.

Limitations and when extra steps are needed

The checklist above covers a standard Thinkific site using the default theme. Certain situations require additional actions:

• Custom themes that load JavaScript asynchronously may need the SEATEXT snippet placed in a theme‑specific footer file.
• If you use a third‑party checkout or payment gateway that strips external scripts, test the checkout flow to ensure SEATEXT still runs on product pages.
• Multilingual Thinkific sites that rely on built‑in language switching should still select all target languages in SEATEXT; the platform will handle language detection automatically.
• Sites with strict Content Security Policy (CSP) headers must add seatext.com to the allowed script sources.

Glossary of terms

JavaScript snippet

The small code block provided by SEATEXT that loads the AI engine on each page.

Site Footer Code

Thinkific setting where you can inject HTML/JavaScript that appears before the closing </body> tag on every page.

Variant

An AI‑generated alternative version of a headline, CTA, or other element that SEATEXT serves to visitors for testing.

Activation

The moment SEATEXT confirms the connection and begins to analyze traffic and serve variants.

FAQ

How long does it take for SEATEXT to become active after I finish the checklist?

Once you publish the settings, SEATEXT typically shows an active status within a few minutes. The initial handshake requires a 40‑second site visit and up to five minutes for the logo to appear.

Do I need to reinstall the snippet if I change my Thinkific theme?

Only if the new theme removes or alters the Site Footer Code area. Otherwise the existing snippet remains active because it is stored in the Thinkific settings, not the theme.

Can I limit SEATEXT to specific pages only?

The current Thinkific integration loads the script site‑wide. To restrict it to certain sections you would need to add custom logic in your theme or use SEATEXT’s page‑level inclusion/exclusion rules if available.

What happens if I select a language that I never use?

SEATEXT will still generate variants for that language, but they will never be served because no visitors request it. This creates unnecessary processing load, so it is best to select only the languages you actually need.

Is there a cost to run the checklist steps?

No. Installing the script, linking the site, and choosing languages are free actions within your SEATEXT account. Any charges apply only to the AI agents you activate afterward.

Who should I contact if the site name never appears in the SEATEXT dashboard?

First verify the JavaScript snippet is present in Thinkific → Settings → Code & Analytics and that you have clicked Save. If it is correct and the name still does not show after ten minutes, reach out to SEATEXT support via the help link in your dashboard.
