Follow these steps to add your WAButton installation code to your WooCommerce & WordPress website.
- 1
Open your Header/Footer injection settings
In your WordPress admin, navigate to your custom code plugin (e.g., WPCode -> Headers & Footers) or open your theme customizer.

Save and purge cache
Save settings and purge your caching plugin (WP Rocket, LiteSpeed, W3 Total Cache) to see the button live.
Pro tip: If you use Cloudflare, remember to purge your Cloudflare edge cache as well.

Frequently asked questions
Does WAButton require a WordPress plugin?
- No plugin is required. Adding the embed script once gives you a full dashboard to change designs, greetings, agents, and lead forms without touching WordPress code again.
Does it work with cache plugins like WP Rocket and Cloudflare?
- Yes. WAButton is completely decoupled from WordPress server rendering and runs seamlessly on cached static pages.
