Put a word search on your website
Make a word search from your own words and put it right on your page with two lines of code. Free, and no sign-up. You can just as easily embed any themed puzzle from our library instead.
What it looks like
A live example, made with the maker and embedded on this page the same way it would sit on yours:
Word search made with Armchair Puzzles
How to add one
- Make your puzzle. Open the maker, put in your words, give it a title, and pick a look.
- Copy the code. Under your finished puzzle sits a panel called “Put this puzzle on your website”. Copy the snippet there.
- Paste it into your page. Any HTML or embed block works. In WordPress it is the Custom HTML block.
Rather use one of ours? Every puzzle page has the same panel below it, called “Add this puzzle to your website”. Start from the themes.
The code is a frame for the puzzle plus one small credit line underneath, saying where the puzzle was made. Please leave that line in place: it is how readers find us, and it keeps all of this free.
Frequently asked
Is embedding free?
Yes. Every puzzle is free to play, print, and embed. No account, no fee, no catch.
Can I embed a puzzle made from my own words?
Yes. Build one with the word search maker and the code appears right under your finished puzzle.
Can readers solve the puzzle on my page?
They can study the grid and the word list right on your page. Clicking takes them to the full version here, where they can play it in the browser or print it in large print.
What size will it be on my page?
The code sets a sensible size: up to 640 pixels wide, narrowing itself on phones. You can change the width and height numbers in the code if your page needs something different.
Will the puzzle change after I embed it?
No. A puzzle keeps its grid and words. Your page stays as you built it.
Can I remove it later?
Yes. Delete the two lines of code and it is gone.
