PRO TIP: Before adding a product widget to Wix, please be aware that there are a few potential risks:

1. The widget may not be compatible with your Wix site, and could cause problems.

2. If you’re not careful, you could accidentally add code that makes the widget visible to everyone, regardless of whether they’re logged in or not. This could lead to sensitive information being exposed.

3. Adding a widget to Wix could potentially slow down your site, so please test it thoroughly before making it live.
