Hi @stepfaul,

Thank you so much for choosing Head & Footer Code for your project, and reporting the issue.

I have released a new version 1.5.4 with a lot of improvements, including fix for the issue that you have reported.

Please give it a try.

@stepfaul forgot to note, you must use double quotes or no quotes for attribute values, otherwise they’ll be stripped. So, this is correct code snippet:
```

<script id="merchantWidgetScript"
        src="https://www.gstatic.com/shopping/merchant/merchantwidget.js"
        defer>
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
  merchantWidgetScript.addEventListener('load', function () {
    merchantwidget.start({
     position: 'RIGHT_BOTTOM'
   });
  });
</script>

```
