Do I Need WordPress to Use Icegram Plugins?

Learn why Icegram plugins require self-hosted WordPress and discover how to deploy campaigns on non-WordPress sites using remote embeds.

Yes. Icegram plugins (Icegram Engage, Icegram Express, Icegram Collect, and Icegram Mailer) are built for self-hosted WordPress (WordPress.org) installations.

Hosted WordPress.com vs Self-Hosted WordPress.org

  • Self-Hosted WordPress (WordPress.org): Fully supported across all web hosts.
  • WordPress.com: Supported only on plans that permit third-party plugin installations (Business plan or higher).

Using Icegram Engage on Non-WordPress Sites

If you operate non-WordPress websites (such as Shopify, Magento, Webflow, or custom HTML sites), you can use Icegram Engage Max to control campaigns from a central host WordPress site and display them across your remote sites via a simple JavaScript embed. See our guide to showing campaigns on remote sites.
