Orbit is designed to work both as a standalone portal and as a deeply integrated extension of your existing website. With powerful embedding, WordPress integration, and extensive theming options, you can make Orbit feel like a seamless part of your organization's online presence.
Embedding
All of Orbit's major features — events, courses, resources, member directory, announcements, and membership pages — can be embedded directly into your existing website using a simple two-line code snippet:
<script src="https://your-portal.com/embed.js" async></script>
<div data-portal-embed="events"></div>
The embed auto-sizes to fit the content, inherits your portal's theme, and supports interactive features like filtering, pagination, and registration. Works with any website — WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, custom HTML, or any platform that supports iframes.
For the full list of embeddable content, theme customization, manual iframe options, and platform-specific instructions, see the Website Integration developer guide.
WordPress Integration
Embedding in WordPress
All of Orbit's embeddable components work in WordPress using the embed code above. You can add it to any page, post, or widget area using a custom HTML block.
Hosted WordPress (Higher Tier Plans)
For organizations on higher tier plans, Orbit offers a hosted WordPress site as part of your subscription. This includes:
- WordPress admin access — log in to your WordPress dashboard directly from the Orbit admin portal
- Site health monitoring — automated health checks every 10 minutes track your site's uptime, response time, and status
- Daily screenshots — an automated daily screenshot of your site's homepage, visible from the admin dashboard
- Request a site — organizations can request a hosted WordPress site from the admin portal
The hosted WordPress integration is managed from the Website section of the admin portal.
Coming Soon
The following features are planned:
- WordPress plugin — a dedicated WordPress plugin for much deeper integration, allowing you to embed Orbit's events, resources, directory, courses, and more directly into your WordPress themes and block editor with full control over layout and styling
