Step 1: Sign up for your chatbot service (Lumobot offers a 14-day free trial).
Step 2: Complete the onboarding — enter your business name, services, hours, and customize the chatbot appearance.
Step 3: Copy your embed code (one script tag).
Step 4: In WordPress, go to Appearance → Theme Editor → footer.php (or use a plugin like 'Insert Headers and Footers'). Paste the script tag before the closing body tag.
Step 5: Save and refresh your site. The chat bubble should appear in the bottom-right corner.
Alternative for page builders: If you use Elementor, Divi, or similar, add an HTML widget to your footer template and paste the code there.
The whole process takes under 5 minutes. No coding knowledge required.
