Canva text boxes cannot open or close, so an FAQ built from them shows every answer at full length, and the page grows with each question you add. An embedded FAQ starts with every answer closed. Visitors click the question they came for, or type in the search box above the list to find it.
Canva websites show embeds that sit in the page, never ones that float over it, so a floating help button, a sticky FAQ bar, or a popup FAQ will not appear on a Canva site, from any provider. This FAQ sits in the page where you put it, which is the kind Canva shows.
Answers change more than anything else on a small site. Change one in Fugte and publish again, and within about a minute the published Canva site shows it, without the Canva design being opened. One thing an embedded FAQ will not do is help your Canva page rank: search engines generally credit text inside an embed to the embed's own address. If a question needs to be found in search, also write it as text on your page.
Why Fugte
Templates, text boxes, and an embedded FAQ.
Templates make a picture
Canva's FAQ templates are designs for posts, stories, and printouts. Downloaded, they are images, so nothing in them opens, and nothing in them can be searched.
Text boxes do not fold
An FAQ built from text boxes on a Canva website shows every answer at full length. Changing one answer means opening the design, editing it, and publishing the site again.
An embedded FAQ opens on click
Every answer starts closed, and a search box filters the list. Change an answer in Fugte and publish, and the Canva site shows it within about a minute.

How to Embed HTML to Canva
Shown with a puzzle widget, in about a minute and a half. The steps are the same for the FAQ Accordion, and they are written out below.
Step by step
Embed the FAQ Accordion in your Canva website.
Checked in Canva on : A Canva website has nowhere to paste HTML or embed code. Import HTML turns a file into a single Code block that Canva's design tools do not work inside. The Embed app takes a link instead.
- 01
Open the FAQ Accordion in Fugte
In Fugte, open Starters, search for FAQ, and choose Use on the FAQ Accordion. It opens in the editor as your own copy.
- 02
Write your questions and answers
On the Blocks tab, each question is a block with its answer, up to 30. Replace the samples and drag them into order. On the Settings tab, set the heading, the subtitle, the search box, and the background, text, and accent colors.
- 03
Publish and copy the link
Publish the widget and copy its link from the publish panel. Canva takes the link. It does not accept HTML embed code on any plan.
- 04
Add an Embed in Canva
In your Canva website design, open Apps in the left sidebar, search for Embed, and open it. Paste the link into Web link and choose Add to design.
- 05
Make the box taller than it starts
Canva sizes the box to the FAQ with every answer closed, so an opened answer has nowhere to go and is cut off or scrolls inside the box. Drag the box tall enough for your longest answer to open, keep answers short, and leave the search on for a long list.
- 06
Publish the Canva site and open an answer
Publish the Canva site, then open the published page on a computer and on a phone and click your longest question. If its answer is cut off, make the box taller in Canva and publish again.
- 07
Change an answer later
Edit the answer in Fugte and publish again. Reload the published Canva site, and within about a minute it shows the new answer. Nothing changes in Canva.
Another option: the Fugte app in Canva (open Apps and search for Fugte) also lists the FAQ Accordion on its Starters tab, and adds it to the page as the same kind of embed. See the Fugte app in Canva.
Good to know
Canva specifics worth planning around.
Canva renders only static, in-page embeds: floating buttons, sticky bars, and popups will not work on Canva sites.
There is no site-wide option: a widget you want on several pages must be embedded on each page individually.
The Embed element is available on free Canva accounts.
The link stays stable, so later edits made in the widget editor appear on the Canva page automatically, no need to reopen the design.

FAQ
Common questions.
Can I make an FAQ section in Canva?
As a design, yes: Canva has FAQ templates for posts and printouts. On a Canva website, text boxes cannot open and close, so every answer shows at full length. For answers that open on click, embed an FAQ by link with Canva's Embed element.
Do the answers start closed?
Yes. Every answer is closed until a visitor clicks its question. Each one opens on its own, so a visitor can have several open at once.
Why is my FAQ cut off on my Canva site?
The embed box is shorter than the FAQ with an answer open. Canva sizes the box to the FAQ with every answer closed, so drag it taller in Canva and publish the site again. Shorter answers help, and so does the search box on a long list.
Can I add a floating FAQ button or a popup FAQ to a Canva site?
No. Canva websites show embeds inside the page, not over it, so a floating help button, a sticky bar, or a popup will not appear, whichever provider made it. Put the FAQ in a section of the page instead.
How do I change an answer after the Canva site is live?
Edit it in Fugte and publish again. Within about a minute the published Canva site shows the new answer. The link in Canva stays the same, so nothing is re-pasted and the Canva site is not published again.
Will an embedded FAQ help my Canva site rank in Google?
Do not count on it. Search engines generally credit text inside an embed to the embed's own address, not to your Canva page. If a question needs to be found in search, also write it as text on your Canva page or on a blog post.
Can the FAQ match my Canva design?
Partly. The heading, the subtitle, and the background, text, and accent colors are settings, so set them to your Canva colors. There is no font setting: the FAQ uses the visitor's system font.
Can I paste HTML or iframe code into Canva instead?
No. Canva websites do not support raw HTML, JavaScript, or iframe embeds on any plan. Hosting the widget elsewhere and embedding it by link is the supported route.
Is there a Fugte app in Canva?
Yes, as another way to add a widget. In the Canva editor, open Apps and search for Fugte. The app adds ready-made starters, widgets from your Fugte account, and code you paste in, each as the same kind of embed a pasted link makes.
Some guides say to use an HTML block in Canva. Where is it?
Canva websites do not have one. Steps that mention an HTML or code block, a code module, or an HTML button in the text editor describe other website builders. In Canva, the element that shows outside content is Embed, and it takes a link.
What about Canva's Import HTML option?
It is for reworking a page inside Canva: the file comes in as a single Code block that Canva's design tools do not work inside. To put the FAQ Accordion on your site, paste its link into the Embed app.
Will the FAQ Accordion stay interactive after the Canva site is published?
Yes. The FAQ Accordion loads live on the published site, on desktop and mobile, and visitors can interact with it without any account.
Does this need a paid Canva plan?
No. Canva's Embed element works on free accounts, and Fugte has a free plan, so you can test the full workflow at no cost.
