Hello, I have a script provided from https://www.mylocalsalon.co.uk/. Which working fine in https://www.w3schools.com/jquery/tryit.asp?filename=tryjquery_lib_google . But in Squarespace, I inserted the script and nothing showing! However, I managed to show the block but it is not changing dynamically as it should do.

Script used 

<!--Your plug-in code can be customised to look
like your website using the following styling elements.
.SCMyWebsitePlugin-score
.SCMyWebsitePlugin-score div
.SCMyWebsitePlugin-mlsLink
li#SCMyWebsitePlugin-firstItem
li#SCMyWebsitePlugin-lastItem
#SCMyWebsitePlugin-main
#SCMyWebsitePlugin-reviewListDiv
-->

<div id="SCMyWebsitePlugin-main" data-site_id="43a01004-5146-e911-a9a6-000d3a81ec09" data-number_of_reviews="3" data-no_styles="true" data-change_time="1000" data-character_limit="200" data-total_reviews="20" data-use_microdata="true" />

<script type="text/javascript">
(function() {
     var newScript = document.createElement('script');
     newScript.type = "text/javascript";
     newScript.src = "https://ratings.mylocalsalon.com/widget/mywebsite";
     var firstScript = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
     firstScript.parentNode.appendChild(newScript);
})();
</script>

 

Any Idea about how to solve this? Thanks in advance!

Can you explain what isn't working? This is what I see:

@paul2009 Thanks for the reply. It should dynamically populate  new reviews to slide up. Please run the code in https://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_default_default to get the exact idea. For example, a 4th hidden review block should take place of the 3rd review after a certain time period.

@paul2009 I have attached the actual function it should do. 

I can see the root cause, Squarespace added a method to Array object called removeRange, which will be included in the for...in loop inside localsalon script, which break the code to loop to next review item.

Does your provider allow to embed code in a iframe instead?

BTW, I made change to your snippet to add it into iframe to get rid of squarespace issue

<iframe id="mylocalsalon-frame" src="javascript:void(0);"></iframe><style> #mylocalsalon-frame { width: 100%; border: none; height: 300px; overflow: hidden; }</style><script> const iframeElement = document.querySelector('#mylocalsalon-frame'); const htmlContent = "<!--Your plug-in code can be customised to look like your website using the following styling elements. .SCMyWebsitePlugin-score .SCMyWebsitePlugin-score div .SCMyWebsitePlugin-mlsLink li#SCMyWebsitePlugin-firstItem li#SCMyWebsitePlugin-lastItem #SCMyWebsitePlugin-main #SCMyWebsitePlugin-reviewListDiv --> <div id='SCMyWebsitePlugin-main' data-site_id='43a01004-5146-e911-a9a6-000d3a81ec09' data-number_of_reviews='3' data-no_styles='true' data-change_time='1000' data-character_limit='200' data-total_reviews='20' data-use_microdata='true'/> <script type='text/javascript'> (function() { var newScript = document.createElement('script'); newScript.type = 'text/javascript'; newScript.src = 'https://ratings.mylocalsalon.com/widget/mywebsite'; var firstScript = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; firstScript.parentNode.appendChild(newScript); })();<\/script>"; iframeElement.contentWindow.document.open(); iframeElement.contentWindow.document.write(htmlContent); iframeElement.contentWindow.document.close();</script>

Paste the snippet to a code block on your site to make MyLocalSalon Review Script working on Squarespace site

I suggest you forward my revealation to the provider, they should for...of loop instead to solve it completely
