< Back Promoting your site SEO (get found on Google) About External URL Parameters Some external marketing tools can create a duplicate version of your page's URL with added parameters for tracking purposes. For example, the following URL includes a tracking parameter: https://www.mysite.com/ ?gclid=Test Examples of common external parameters: gclid: Added by Google Ads . fbclid : Added by Meta when someone clicks your page through a social post. How parameters affect search results The added parameter doesn't affect your page's content. In most cases, Google recognizes this version of the URL as a duplicate and excludes it from indexing. However, there is still a chance that Google may treat the URL as a separate page of your site and show two versions in search results - the regular URL and another one with tracking parameters. How parameters affect AI-generated answers Duplicate URLs have an effect on AI-powered search tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. These tools crawl and index web pages similarly to traditional search engines, which means they can encounter multiple versions of the same page URL (with and without tracking parameters). When an AI tool has indexed a parameter variant like https://www.mysite.com/ ?fbclid=abc123 , it may cite that version when answering a question about your site. This causes two problems for your visitors: The link may not work as expected (since tracking parameters are often session-specific or expire). Different AI tools may cite different URL versions, making your site look inconsistent. To prevent this, set a canonical URL for your pages. A canonical tag signals to both search engines and AI crawlers which version of a URL is the official one. With a canonical pointing to your clean URL (e.g., https://www.mystunningsite.com/), AI tools have a clear, consistent reference point and are less likely to surface parameter-based variants in their answers. Learn more about changing the canonical tags for your site's pages. Excluding parameters from Google Analytics If you see a URL with tracking parameters in Google Analytics, you can exclude it by applying filters to your view. We recommend adding a new view and applying the filters there, as filters may change your view's future data.

< Back Managing your business Orders, Cart & Checkout Displaying an Order Cancellation Button on Your Site As of June 19, 2026, merchants selling in the EU are required to display an order cancellation button on retail sites.

Compliance considerations for merchants When adding an order cancellation button, make sure your solution complies with all relevant local regulations. Two-step cancellation process The cancellation button should open a dedicated cancellation request form where customers can specify which order or contract they want to cancel. The form should collect enough information to identify the order, such as: Customer name Email address Order number Order date (if applicable) After completing the form, customers should confirm their request with a final action, for example, by clicking a Submit cancellation request button. This completes the cancellation request. No login required Customers should be able to submit a cancellation request without creating an account or logging in. Guest customers must have the same ability to submit a cancellation request electronically as registered customers. Immediate electronic confirmation After submitting a cancellation request, customers should immediately receive an electronic confirmation that their request was received. Make sure your chosen solution provides this confirmation where required by local law. High visibility and accessibility Make sure the cancellation button is clearly visible and easy to find throughout the cancellation period. Do not place it somewhere customers need to click through multiple pages, account areas, or complex menus to access it.

< Back Managing your business Business solutions & apps Wix Restaurants: Collecting Prepayment for Table Reservations Collect a prepayment to secure a guest's payment details during the reservation process. Depending on your approval settings, you can charge guests immediately or after reviewing their request: Automatic approval : Guests pay the prepayment amount during checkout to confirm the reservation. Manual approval : Guests enter their payment details at checkout, but you choose when and how to charge them—after you approve the request. You can collect the prepayment by charging the provided credit card, sending a payment link, issuing an invoice, or charging in person. Before you begin: Make sure you choose automatic or manual approval for online reservations . Collecting prepayment for reservations When you choose to approve your reservations manually, you review the request first and only then charge the guest. This approach also lets you customize your messaging about payment timing, guest requirements, and refund policies. Note: Make sure to update your Policy settings on the table reservations form (e.g. Guest requirements, prepayment conditions, your refund policies). To collect payment for reservations: Go to Table Reservations in your site's dashboard. C lick the Requests tab. Hover over the relevant reservation. Click the Collect Payment drop-down and select the relevant option: Charge with pay link Send a secure payment link to the customer so they can enter their own payment details and complete the transaction online.

(Optional) Add a tip or continue without a tip. Select or deselect the Automatically capture payments before the authorization period ends checkbox: Selected: The payment is automatically sent to you at the end of the 7-day period, if you haven't taken any action till then. Deselected: The payment is automatically voided at the end of the 7-day period. This means that the hold on the payment is released from your customer's account, if you haven't taken any action. Click Authorize . FAQs Click a question below to learn more about collecting payments for table reservations. When do I collect a customer's credit card details? After a guest selects an available time slot and submits a reservation request if manual approval is enabled, they must enter their credit card details When is a guest charged for their reservation request? Guests are charged at different times depending on whether the reservation is automatically or manually approved: Automatic approval: Guests pay the required prepayment amount right at checkout to confirm the reservation. Manual approval: Guests are told during the request process that their card will only be charged if the host approves the request. Once the request is approved and payment is collected, the guest receives a confirmation email with all the reservation details. How do I refund my customers? Go to Orders in your site's dashboard. Click the relevant order. Click More Actions at the top right. Select Refund . Select the checkboxes next to items you want to refund.

Select the Send a confirmation email to customer checkbox and enter a personal note to your customer. Note: Customers may also receive a notification from the payment provider. Click Refund . Click Issue Refund . Note: This cannot be undone. Can I save a guest's card instead of charging a prepayment? Yes. A credit card hold saves a guest's card details without charging them, and only charges a fee if they cancel late or don't show up. It's a good fit if you want to reduce no shows without asking guests to pay upfront. Set up payment protection to compare the two methods or switch between them.

< Back Advanced features CMS CMS: Working with Wix App Collections Wix app collections in the CMS (Content Management System) are databases that are added to your site when you integrate specific Wix apps.

Need to delete a Wix app collection? If you want to remove a Wix app collection, you must delete the relevant Wix app from your site. For example, you must remove Wix Stores from your site if you want to delete the 'Stores' app collections. You can delete Wix form collections that were created by the old version of Wix Forms. It is not possible to delete Wix form collections created by the new version of Wix Forms. How do Wix app collections work? Wix app collections store information about the items in your Wix app. For instance, if you have Wix Stores on your site, the 'Products' collection includes details about the products you sell. The fields (columns) in the collection provide information for each item (row), such as the item's name, price, image, and product options. To edit the content in your Wix app collections, go to the relevant Wix app, such as Wix Stores or Wix Events, and make your changes there. Any adjustments you make within the Wix apps are automatically reflected in the Wix app collections. Wix app collection fields Your Wix app collection fields get their data from the relevant apps (e.g. Stores, Bookings, Events). In these collections, you can view the field names , types , IDs and content. Each app has its own unique capabilities. For example, some apps like Pricing Plans do not allow you to use their fields in user input elements that are set to filter content. What does each Wix app collection field represent? Go to our Wix Developers documentation to view more info about specific Wix app collections. You can click the relevant app in the side bar to view details about each of its fields. Wix app collection permissions Wix app collections have fixed and varying collection permissions that cannot be modified. The permissions define how the collection content can be accessed by people with different roles. You can only view these permissions, which determine who can read, add, update, or delete content. Each collection permission is tied to specific user roles, allowing you to see the access levels assigned to different people. Examples: 'Members - PrivateMembersData' collection: Site members can only view items they created themselves. No one can add, update, or delete the collection content from the live site. You can display 'PrivateMembersData' collection content by connecting its fields to elements on your page , ensuring each member sees only their own items. Visitors cannot update the content of your collection using input elements. 'Stores - Products' collection: Any site visitor can read the collection content on your live site. However, no one can add, update, or delete the content from the live site. You can display all of your 'Stores' collection content by connecting the fields to elements on your page. Visitors are not able to update the content of your collection using input elements. Remember, you cannot edit permissions for Wix app collections like Wix Stores or Wix Bookings. You can view these collections in your CMS, but any modifications must be made within the corresponding apps.

Can I add a tooltip to an image that appears when visitors hover over the image? We have removed the option to add tooltips to image elements as tooltips are not accessible to all users. It is no longer possible to set tooltips for static images or images that connect to the CMS. Instead, use the alt text field to explain images in a way that screen readers can understand them. Learn more about CMS alt text best practices . Can I display images or videos from the CMS in section backgrounds? Yes. You can connect section backgrounds to 'Image' or 'Video' fields in your CMS collection. You can also connect the background color to 'Color' fields if you want to display a color from your collection. If the section background is for decorative purposes only, we recommend leaving the alt text disconnected in the dataset. This helps screen readers skip over the image, preventing unnecessary distractions. For non-decorative background images, connect the alt text to a collection field that explains what the background image or video shows. Learn more about CMS accessibility best practices .

Datasets are the vital link between the elements on your page and the content in your CMS collection. You can use datasets to create a two-way connection, allowing you to display collection content, capture user inputs, or both. Datasets allow you to control which parts of your page elements connect to which fields in your collection. Each dataset connects to a collection and each element connected to the dataset connects to a field in the collection. This unlocks a new way of managing which content appears and where. Learn more about adding and setting up a dataset . Can I connect multiple images to the same dataset? Yes, you can connect multiple images to the same dataset. The dataset only connects to one collection. However, you can connect each part of the images to different collection fields to use different content from the same collection.
