What You'll Need
- A website (WordPress, Shopify, custom HTML - anything works!)
- 5 minutes of your time
- A cup of coffee ☕ (optional, but recommended)
Step 1: Create Your Account

Click Create Project.

Step 3: Choose Your Feature
Now the fun part! Click on what you want to create:
For this quick start, let's create a simple contact form:
- Click Forms in the sidebar
- Click Create New Form
- Give it a name: "Contact Form"
- Use the drag-and-drop builder to add fields:
- Name (text field)
- Email (email field)
- Message (textarea)
- Click Save
Step 4: Add to Your Website
This is the easiest part! Chat4.shop gives you a simple script tag.
- In your form (or chatbot/modal), click the Embed or Integration tab
- Copy the script code - it looks like this:
<script src="https://chat4.shop/embed.js" data-form-id="your-unique-id"></script>- Paste this code into your website's HTML, just before the closing
</body>tag
Where to paste?
- WordPress: Use a "Custom HTML" widget or header/footer plugin
- Shopify: Theme Settings → Custom Code
- Custom site: Your HTML template file
