Scroll down to </body> which is almost at the very bottom.

Here you add the following line just above that </body> element.

<script async defer src="https://cdn.boei.help/hello.js"></script>

Step 5. Save

Click at the right top on "Save".

Step 6. See "Boei is installed" message

You should now see a "Boei is installed" message when you preview your website.

Step 7. Create your button and add your domain
