The embedding HTML code can be copied from your bot/channel/forum's Embed page under Admin.
The simplest solution is to embed content inside your webpage using an iframe. This just displays embedded content directly from the Paphus Live Chat website inside your webpage. The Embed page provides lots of options that let you customize the embedded content, such as changing the background color, changing the prompt and button text, or even providing your own CSS style sheet.
