How to add messenger chat on website?
The Facebook Chat Plugin is a free chat extension that you can install on your website. When people visit your website and click on the Messenger icon, it will send them directly into a Messenger conversation to chat with your business.
There are two parts to complete the installation. First, you will set up the Chat Plugin from your Facebook Page, then you will add the code for the plugin into your website.
Note: If your website is built on WordPress, or if you use ManyChat or Chatfuel, you can skip the Facebook Page setup and go directly to the Add the Chat Plugin to your website section.
