How to hide EV SSL GoDaddy site seal

Post by Saman » Thu Nov 11, 2010 6:15 pm

For GoDaddy EV SSL, it is required to add an image with Verified & Secured site seal to get the green bar working. If you don't place it green bar will not work. However some people doesn't like to see that badge on their web site. There are two methods to do this.

One is by adding something called web beacon. You can add this code to your site.
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://seal.godaddy.com/js/gdwebbeacon.js“></script>

Or else, you can download the JavaScript from http://seal.godaddy.com/js/gdwebbeacon.js, upload it to your site and then use the following script. Make sure you change the site name to yours.

Code: Select all

<script type=”text/javascript” src=”https://robot.lk/gdwebbeacon.js”></script>
You can also download it from here.

The other method is to make the site seal hidden as below. You need to replace XXXX with your Seal ID.

Code: Select all

<div id=”hiddenseal” style=”display:none”><script type=”text/javascript” src=”https://seal.godaddy.com/getSeal?sealID=XXXX?></script></div>
