Add your AI assistant to WordPress

To add your Ask Church assistant to WordPress, copy your one-line install code and paste it your theme footer (Appearance → Theme File Editor → footer.php, before </body>) or via a 'header & footer scripts' plugin. The assistant — already trained on your church's content, with your name, colors, and welcome message baked in — appears as a chat button in the corner of every page. No other setup is needed.

Step by step

  1. Open your dashboard — Go to your assistant's dashboard and open the Test & Install tab.
  2. Copy your install code — It looks like <script src="https://askchurch.ai/ask-church/YOUR-SLUG/widget.js" async></script> — one line, with your church already baked in.
  3. Paste it into WordPress — Add it to your theme footer (Appearance → Theme File Editor → footer.php, before ) or via a 'header & footer scripts' plugin.
  4. Save and publish — Reload your site — the chat button appears in the bottom corner. Click it to test.

Frequently asked

Do I need a developer to add the assistant to WordPress?
No. It's a single line of code you copy from your dashboard and paste into WordPress. Most churches do it in a couple of minutes.
Will it match my church's branding?
Yes — your name, colors, logo, and welcome message are baked into the code, so it matches your site automatically. You can change any of it anytime from the dashboard.
Will it slow down my website?
No. The script loads asynchronously (async), so it never blocks your pages from loading.
