How to install Boei on your OpenCart store

You can install Boei on your OpenCart store in just a few minutes, no extension required.

Just grab a cup of coffee ☕️, and you can do the installation in 5-mins yourself.

Step 1. Create an account

Create a Boei account if you don't have one yet. The onboarding trains your AI chatbot on your website content. You can also add other ways customers can reach you, like WhatsApp, email, or phone.

Step 2. Copy installation code

In your Boei dashboard, open your widget and click the Install tab. Select Other / Script and copy the installation code.

Tip: The Install tab also offers a landing page link, QR code, and iframe embed.

Step 3. Log in to OpenCart Admin

Open your OpenCart administration panel and navigate to Design → Theme Editor (or Extensions → Themes depending on your version).

Step 4. Edit the footer template

Find your active theme's footer template. In the theme editor, open common/footer.twig (or common/footer.tpl in older versions). Paste the Boei script code just before the closing </body> tag.

Step 5. Save and refresh

Click Save and visit your store's frontend. Clear any OpenCart cache from Dashboard → blue refresh button if needed.

Congrats, you are done! You now have the Boei AI chatbot installed on OpenCart.


Troubleshooting

If the Boei chatbot doesn't appear on your site:

  • Hard-refresh the page (Cmd+Shift+R on Mac, Ctrl+Shift+R on Windows) to bypass browser cache.
  • Disable ad blockers in your test browser. Some block third-party scripts.
  • Clear OpenCart cache from Dashboard, plus Cloudflare if you use it.

Common questions

Will it slow down my site? No, Boei loads asynchronously after your page renders.

Does it work on mobile? Yes, the chatbot is fully responsive.

Can I show it only on certain pages? Yes, set page rules in your Boei dashboard.
