How to Add a Seating Chart to a Notion Page.

Notion supports live embeds through its /embed block: paste a link, and the content renders inside the page. That makes adding a Seating Chart to Notion one of the simplest embed workflows there is, as long as the widget lives at a hosted URL.

Step by step

Embed the Seating Chart in your Notion page.

01

Create the widget in Fugte

Start from the Seating Chart starter, generate a variation with the built-in AI, or paste your own code.

02

Customize and publish it in Fugte

Text, colors, images, numbers, and options are no-code settings, so you can match your branding without touching code. Publishing gives the Seating Chart a stable hosted link and an embed snippet.

03

Type /embed in Notion

On the Notion page where you want the widget, type /embed, choose the Embed block, and paste the hosted link.

04

Resize and share

Drag the block's handles to size the Seating Chart, then share or publish the page as usual. The widget stays interactive for viewers.

Good to know

Notion specifics worth planning around.

Embeds work on free Notion plans, in private workspaces, shared pages, and published Notion Sites.

The widget is sized by dragging the embed block handles: set a height that fits the content to avoid inner scrollbars.

Teammates can move or delete the embed block, but the widget itself is edited in the widget editor, so nobody can break it from inside Notion.

The link stays stable: edits made in the widget editor show up on the Notion page automatically.

This widget

What the Seating Chart needs from the embed.

The section above applies to anything you put on a Notion page. This part is specific to the Seating Chart.

With Popup mode set to Photo or Search box, one panel waits behind a button and opens in a popup that fills the Notion box, not the page. Size the box for the photo rather than for the search card, or the chart opens cramped. If the box has to stay small, leave the photo out: the search box and its result work on their own.

Every guest is one tile, and the tile labels scale with the width of the frame, so a long list in a narrow column makes small tiles with names that are hard to read. Names on the tiles stay on one line and long ones are cut off. The full name shows on the flipped card and in the search result, but give this widget the widest spot on the page you have.

Everything in the guest list file goes into the published widget, including columns it never displays, so on a public widget anyone who can see the page can read the whole file. Keep it to names, tables, and seats, and on Basic or Creator set Who can view this widget to Passcode so the list only loads for guests who enter it.
