where would I add the code that facebook gave me to add messenger to the site?

fb suggest just after the <body> but there is no body tag in qa-theme.php

or is there a plug-in for this somewhere that I couldn't find?

Thank you

You'll have to copy the body() function from qa-theme-base.php to the current theme you're using, and then make the necessary changes. Like the example below.

Edit

public function body()

{

    $this->output('<body');

    $this->body_tags();

    $this->output('>');

    $this->output('<!-- Load Facebook SDK for JavaScript -->

  <div id="fb-root"></div>

  <script>

window.fbAsyncInit = function() {

  FB.init({

xfbml            : true,

version          : \'v6.0\'

  });

};

(function(d, s, id) {

var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];

if (d.getElementById(id)) return;

js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;

js.src = \'https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk/xfbml.customerchat.js\';

fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);

  }(document, \'script\', \'facebook-jssdk\'));</script>

  <!-- Your customer chat code -->

  <div class="fb-customerchat"

attribution=setup_tool

page_id="YOURPAGEID"

theme_color="#4267b2"

logged_in_greeting="YOUR GREETING."

logged_out_greeting="YOUR GREETING.">

  </div>">');

    $this->body_script();

    $this->body_header();

    $this->body_content();

    $this->body_footer();

    $this->body_hidden();

    $this->output('</body>');

}

">
at the top of the screen...
it's this part that is causing it
</div>">');

I think you're supposed to add a link to your facebook code at the very beginning of the output, where it says: Load Facebook SDK for JavaScript.
In fact, at the moment it's just an open tag

<script src="<!-- Load Facebook SDK for JavaScript -->

Nevermind, that's actually a typo now that I look at it. You need to remove that open script part

<script src="

no...still showing "> above the header....
