Install FoxChat on WordPress

Two ways to add the FoxChat AI Operator (you name it yourself) to your WordPress site: the plugin (no code) or a one-line snippet.

FoxChat adds an AI chat bubble named your AI operator to your site. Your AI operator reads your published pages and answers visitor questions automatically. On WordPress you have two routes. The plugin is the fastest if you can install plugins; the snippet route works on any theme, including managed hosts where you only have a header or footer scripts field. Pick whichever fits your setup — the end result is identical.

Option A · The plugin

1Open the plugin directory

In your WordPress admin sidebar, go to Plugins → Add New and search for FoxChat.

2Install and activate

Click Install Now, then Activate. A FoxChat item appears in your admin sidebar.

3Connect your site ID

Open the FoxChat settings panel and paste the site ID from your FoxChat dashboard. Save. Your AI operator is now live on every page of your site.

Option B · The snippet

1Copy your FoxChat snippet
<script src="https://getfoxchat.com/widget.js" data-site="YOUR_SITE_ID" defer></script>

Replace YOUR_SITE_ID with the ID shown in your FoxChat dashboard after signup.

2Find a header or footer scripts field

Many themes and SEO plugins (for example WPCode or a "Header and Footer Scripts" plugin) give you a box to paste custom code. Open it and choose the Footer or before </body> field.

3Paste and save

Paste the snippet into that field and save. If you prefer editing the theme directly, add the line just before </body> in your theme's footer.php (use a child theme so updates do not overwrite it).

4Reload your site

Open your homepage in a fresh tab. Your AI operator bubble appears in the corner within a second or two.

Troubleshooting

Widget not showing?

Confirm the site ID is correct and the snippet sits in the footer, not the header. Clear any caching plugin or CDN cache, then hard-reload the page.

Widget covering a button or menu?

Reposition it from your FoxChat dashboard — switch the bubble to the opposite corner or nudge its offset. No code change needed.

Want to remove FoxChat?

If you used the plugin, deactivate and delete it. If you pasted the snippet, delete that one line from your scripts field or footer.php and save.
