Install ChatLM on WordPress (No Plugin)
You do not need a WordPress plugin for ChatLM. The embed is the same script used on any HTML site.
Method A — Theme footer (best)
- Copy embed code from ChatLM dashboard.
- WordPress → Appearance → Theme File Editor (use a child theme when possible).
- Open
footer.php, paste the script immediately before</body>. - Save and clear cache (LiteSpeed, WP Rocket, etc.).
Method B — Header/footer plugin
Install WPCode or Insert Headers and Footers. Paste the script in the Footer section site-wide.
Widget only visible when logged in as admin?
Some themes load different assets for administrators. Always test in incognito while logged out. Also check:
- Cache plugin serving an old page without the script
- Allowed origins missing your public domain
- Ad blockers hiding third-party scripts
Page builders (Elementor, Divi)
Add an HTML widget block in the global footer template and paste the script there.
