2. Insert code manually

If you do not want to use plugin, you can insert code directly into WordPress theme.

3. Advanced custom changes

Do not want to use plugin or you inserted code manually and need advanced custom changes? The steps below are exactly for you.

Install "Scripts n Styles"

By default when you install our plugin or insert our code into header it gets displayed in all pages. In case you need to display our code on certain specific pages or maybe just one page only, install 3rd party WordPress plugin Scripts n Styles.

Adjust code

You need to do a few small changes to our default code.

 Read carefully or it will not work.

 

From our code remove these lines.

<!-- Smartsupp Live Chat script -->
<script type="text/javascript">
</script>

Your original code ...

<!-- Smartsupp Live Chat script -->
<script type="text/javascript">
var _smartsupp = _smartsupp || {};
_smartsupp.key = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx';
window.smartsupp||(function(d) {
 var s,c,o=smartsupp=function(){ o._.push(arguments)};o._=[];
 s=d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];c=d.createElement('script');
 c.type='text/javascript';c.charset='utf-8';c.async=true;
 c.src='//www.smartsuppchat.com/loader.js?';s.parentNode.insertBefore(c,s);
})(document);
</script>

... needs to look like you see below. EXAMPLE ONLY. DO NOT COPY!

Insert code

  1. Go to Pages, edit page you want and below content in Scripts n Styles insert modified code.
  2. Click Update Scripts and Update your page.

Smartsupp on WordPress.com

Smartsupp cannot be installed on WordPress.com

 

The chat code cannot be installed on a free hosted WordPress.com website due to the fact that custom plugins cannot be installed on the platform. In addition, custom JavaScript is blocked from being embedded within these types of sites.


 Note: If you are using a Google account to log into Smartsupp, it won't be possible to log in to the WordPress plugin the same way.

You can either insert the chat code manually, or you can click on "forgotten password" in Smartsupp and set up your login via email.
