How to integrate WhatsApp in WordPress without plugin?

Integrate WhatsApp in WordPress:

Integrating WhatsApp into WordPress without using a plugin can be achieved by adding WhatsApp’s official chat link directly to your website. Follow these steps:

 

1. Get Your WhatsApp Number:
   • Make sure you have a WhatsApp Business Account or a personal WhatsApp account.
   • Note down your WhatsApp phone number, including the country code.
2. Create WhatsApp Chat Link:
   • Construct a WhatsApp chat link using the following format:

https://wa.me/<your-phone-number>

Example: If your phone number is +1234567890, the link would be:

https://wa.me/1234567890

3. Add the WhatsApp Link to WordPress:

• Log in to your WordPress dashboard.
• Edit the page or post where you want to add the WhatsApp link.
• Switch to the HTML or Text editor (not the Visual editor).
• Insert the WhatsApp link where you want the button or text to appear. For example:

<a href="https://wa.me/1234567890" target="_blank">Chat with us on WhatsApp</a>

• You can customize the link text according to your preference.
• Save or update the page or post.

4. Test the Integration:
   • Visit the page or post on your website where you added the WhatsApp link.
   • Click on the link to test if it opens WhatsApp and starts a chat with the specified number.

Note: Make sure to replace “1234567890” with your actual WhatsApp phone number.
