Step-by-step guide for getting the code of the Wapp Chat widget

Choose How You Want to Display the Widget

Install to the single page

    • Step 1: Open the Online Store Editor

    • Log in to your Shopify admin panel. In the left sidebar, navigate to Sales Channels and click Online Store.

    • Step 2: Access the Theme Editor

    • On the Themes page, find your current theme and click the Customize button.

    • Step 3: Add the Code to a Liquid Section

    • The visual editor will open, usually on your homepage by default. To select a different page (e.g., a product or collection page), use the drop-down list at the top of the page.

    • Once on the desired page, decide where you want the widget to appear.

    • Click the Add Section button.

    • From the list of sections, choose Custom liquid.

    • Step 4: Paste Your Widget Code and Save

    • A new Custom liquid block will appear. Click on it to open its settings, and paste your unique Wapp widget installation code into the provided box. Finally, click Save in the top right corner.

Install to the All pages

If you want the WhatsApp widget to appear site-wide (e.g., on every product, collection, and page), you need to add the code to your theme's main layout file.

    • Step 1: Navigate to the Online Store

    • Just like in the first method, log in to your Shopify admin, go to Sales Channels, and click Online Store.

    • Step 2: Open the Theme Code Editor

    • This time, instead of hitting Customize, click the ... button (Actions menu) for your current theme and select Edit Code.

    • Step 3: Open the Theme Layout File

    • In the code editor, look for the Layout section on the left. Click on the file named theme.liquid . This is the main template that controls the layout for every page.

    • Step 4: Paste the Code and Save

    • In the theme.liquid file, scroll down until you find the closing tag. Paste your unique Wapp widget installation code just before this tag. Then, click the Save button at the top right.

All done! Your Wapp widget is now installed and will appear on every page of your Shopify store.
