Now after clicking on the button (or link in the description), the users will see a Calendly pop-up where then can schedule a meeting without leaving your website.

This way you can add different links for different items, for example, to schedule meetings with different members of your team.

## Add Calendly floating button

Another way to add Calendly pop-up is to add it as a floating button on the home page. To do that, go to the Calendly add-on settings and switch **Enable floating button** toggle on:
