How to Add an AI Assistant to WordPress

Last updated: July 2026 · No coding required

Adding an AI assistant to WordPress takes about two minutes and no coding. You’ll paste a single line of code into your site’s footer using a free plugin — here’s exactly how.

First, get your code. Log in to your dashboard → Overview to copy your install code (your unique key is already filled in). The example below uses a placeholder YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY.

Step-by-step

  1. 1In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins → Add New and install + activate the free plugin “WPCode – Insert Headers and Footers”.
  2. 2From the left menu, open Code Snippets → Header & Footer.
  3. 3Paste your code into the Footer box.
  4. 4Click Save Changes, then reload your site — your assistant appears in the corner.

Your install code

<script src="https://api.askleya.io/widget/loader.js" data-key="YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY" async></script>

Prefer the full-page AI window?

Ask Leya also offers a full, ChatGPT-style assistant you can embed directly in a page. The steps on WordPress are identical — just paste the “window code” from your dashboard wherever you want it to appear.
