Where is the original footer.php file

[HyperVoxel]

I want to install the Tidio chat plugin. For that, it needs to have the javascript code in the footer.php. Im using x child theme and when I went to the Theme editor in WP, the footer.php only displays this. Where do I put the javasccript? There is no tag to put it.

<?php // ============================================================================= // FOOTER.PHP // ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- // The site footer. // ============================================================================= do_action( 'tco_footer' );

Hey @HyperVoxel,

What you’re intending to do is not recommended. WordPress has a way to insert code in the footer through hooks. You can follow any suggestions here in this 3rd party article https://kinsta.com/knowledgebase/add-code-wordpress-header-footer/

If you wish to proceed with hard coding, you can simply insert your Javascript code below the do_action line.

Just remember that hard coding is not recommended and we do not provide support for issues arising from the use of 3rd party codes.

Hope that helps.
