Sizing recommendations

The widget is mobile-responsive — on narrow screens the tiles shrink automatically.

What you’re embedding

License & attribution

The embed widget is free to use on any website — commercial, personal, educational, paid-content, anything. The only requirement is leaving the “Powered by puzzlecottage.com” footer link visible. That’s the entire deal.

You don’t need to ask permission, register, or notify us. Just embed and go. If you want to drop us a link to where you embedded it, we’d be glad to see it — but it’s not required.

What this isn’t

Frequently asked questions

Is the embed really free?
Yes. No API key, no fee, no signup. Just paste the iframe and it works.
Can I remove the “Powered by” attribution?
No. The attribution link is the only thing we ask in return. Removing it violates the implicit license.
Does the embed track visitors?
No analytics inside the embed itself. Standard browser fetch logging applies (the iframe loads from puzzlecottage.com), but no cookies, no fingerprinting.
What if puzzlecottage.com goes offline?
The iframe will show a broken image. Cloudflare hosts have ~99.99% uptime; the embed inherits that. There’s no separate SLA.
Can I customize the colors?
Not via URL params currently. The widget uses Wordle-standard green/yellow/gray colors that match what users expect.
Will the embed slow down my page?
The embed is lightweight (~5 KB HTML/JS, no external libraries). With loading="lazy" it doesn’t load until visitors scroll near it.
Can I embed this in WordPress?
Yes. WordPress’s default sanitizer strips iframe tags from posts unless you have unfiltered_html capability. Workaround: install an “allow iframes” plugin, or use the “Custom HTML” block.
Can I embed this in Substack?
Substack restricts iframes in posts. Workaround: link to puzzlecottage.com/scramble.html directly instead.
Does the embed work on mobile?
Yes. The widget is responsive and the tile sizes scale down on narrow screens.
