WHMCS is an all-in-one CMS/CRM system that helps you sell to and track your online customers. Follow this guide to quickly install Olark on WHMCS.

Installation steps

  1. Connect to your webserver via the FTP program of your choice, and navigate to whmcs/template/X, where X is the name of the theme that you are using in WHMCS.

  3. On your local computer, open up the footer.tpl file that you have downloaded inside, of a text editor of your choice.
  4. Log in to Olark and visit settings > Chat Widget to copy your Olark code snippet.
  5. Above the tag in the footer.tpl file, paste in the Olark install code.
