Is embedding the word search solver free?

Yes. The word search solver is free to embed on any site, with no account, no API key and no usage limits. It runs entirely in your visitor’s own browser, so there is no server cost — we only ask that you keep the small "Word Search Solver by LK Forge" credit line that comes with the embed code.

What does the embedded solver do?

Visitors paste or type the puzzle’s letter grid (one row of letters per line) and the list of words to find (one per line), then press Solve. Every word that exists in the grid is highlighted in its own colour, with the direction and start/end coordinates listed beside it, and any word that isn’t there is flagged. It searches all eight directions, so backwards and diagonal words are found just like straight ones.

Does the embed include the photo / OCR feature?

No — the embedded widget is the lightweight paste-and-solve version, kept small so it loads fast inside a page. The photo/OCR option (read a grid from a picture) lives on the full tool page. Link visitors to the Word Search Solver if they want to solve a puzzle from a photo.

Where can I embed it — WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Notion?

Anywhere you can add HTML, because it is a standard iframe. In WordPress use a Custom HTML block; in Squarespace a Code/Embed block; in Wix an Embed HTML element; in Ghost an HTML card; in Notion paste the /embed/word-search-solver/ URL as an embed. On a plain HTML page or an intranet, paste the snippet straight into the markup.

Does the embedded solver track visitors or set cookies?

No. Everything runs locally in the visitor’s browser — the grid and words they enter are never sent to a server. The embed sets no tracking cookies and sends no analytics, so it is safe to place on a privacy-sensitive site, an intranet, or a page for children.

How to Add a Word Search Solver to Your Website

LK Forge · 4 min read · Updated August 2026

You can add a full word search solver to any website, blog, or classroom page with a single line of code — free, with no sign-up, no plugin, and no script to install. Visitors paste in the puzzle grid and the words they are hunting for, and every match lights up instantly — forwards, backwards, and diagonal. This guide covers the fastest way to embed the Word Search Solver, how it works, and where you can put it.

The quickest way: paste one embed snippet

An embed is just an <iframe> that loads the solver from lkforge.com, plus a small credit line. Copy this into your page’s HTML where you want the tool to appear:

<iframe src="https://lkforge.com/embed/word-search-solver/"
        width="100%" height="620" loading="lazy"
        style="border:0;max-width:560px"
        title="Word Search Solver by LK Forge"></iframe>
<p><a href="https://lkforge.com/tools/puzzles/word-search-solver/">Word Search Solver</a>
   by <a href="https://lkforge.com/">LK Forge</a></p>

The <iframe> is the live tool; the <p> underneath is a plain credit link. Keep that line — the visible link is what keeps the widget free to embed.

How visitors use it

The widget has two boxes and a Solve button:

Letter grid: paste or type the puzzle, one row of letters per line. Spaces between letters are fine.
Words: the list of words to find, one per line.
Solve: every word in the grid is highlighted in its own colour, with its direction and start/end coordinates; words that aren’t there are marked. Highlight all toggles every found word at once, and Example loads a sample puzzle to try.

Everything is computed in the visitor’s browser, so it is instant even on a large grid and nothing they type is uploaded.

Where it works

Because it is a standard iframe, the embed works anywhere you can add HTML:

WordPress: add a Custom HTML block and paste the snippet.
Squarespace: use a Code / Embed block.
Wix: add an Embed HTML / iframe element.
Ghost: insert an HTML card.
Notion: paste the /embed/word-search-solver/ URL and choose "Create embed".
Plain HTML, an intranet, or a lesson page: paste the snippet straight into the markup.

That’s the whole job. Drop the embed onto a puzzle blog, a teacher’s activity page, or a word-game help post, and your readers get an instant word-search helper — and if they want to solve a puzzle straight from a photo, send them to the full Word Search Solver.

Try the full Word Search Solver — paste a grid and word list, or read a photo of a puzzle, and every hidden word lights up.
