WordPress and WordPress.com
Use the shared checks. Establish whether this is self-hosted WordPress or WordPress.com, and inspect existing header/footer snippets, plugins, theme code, and tag-manager installs first.
Dashboard-only route
Reuse an existing trusted site-wide code-injection facility if one is installed. Create one named Voiceflow widget entry in its footer/body-end HTML area; paste the complete generated snippet, choose the intended pages, and save or activate within the user's launch scope. Do not prescribe an unknown plugin or ask a nontechnical user to edit PHP as the first step.
WordPress.com permits JavaScript on plugin-enabled plans with hosting features activated. If code is stripped or the control is absent, check those capabilities and the user's role. Do not claim a Custom HTML block will bypass restrictions. If a new plugin is needed, explain that dependency before installing it.
Source-managed route
Use the site's existing small integration plugin or child theme, with WordPress's
script-enqueue system. Avoid editing a parent theme that an update will replace.
If splitting the generated snippet into an external SDK and initialization code,
preserve script loading order and run chat.load() only after the SDK exists.
Do not enqueue the SDK and also paste its original loader.
Apply customization through remote settings or this one integration. Do not assume a page builder's CSS reaches widget internals.
Test logged out, on mobile, and on multiple page types. Check cache/minification or delayed-JavaScript features if code differs from what was saved. Clear only the relevant site cache when needed. Roll back the named entry or owned plugin/ child-theme change, preserving other snippets.
