Smartcode Live Chat

Smartcode Live Chat is a live chat plugin designed specifically for WordPress sites, enabling website owners to connect with visitors in real time without relying on third-party services. The plugin installs a chat widget that can be added to a WordPress site within minutes, offering a direct communication channel between site visitors and support agents. Its privacy-focused approach ensures that all chat data remains on the site owner’s own hosting and database, with no visitor information sent to external servers.

The plugin notifies agents instantly when a visitor initiates a chat, allowing them to accept conversations directly from the WordPress admin bar or dashboard. Agents can reply through a real-time popup window, and visitors see responses as they are typed, facilitating immediate and interactive support. For site visitors, the chat widget features a clean and unobtrusive bubble that can be positioned at the bottom-left or bottom-right of the screen. Customization options include setting a welcome message and adjusting the primary color to match the website’s branding.

Additional visitor-focused features include a real-time queue position indicator, letting users know their place in line, and a typing indicator that shows when an agent is responding. At the end of each chat, visitors can provide feedback via a star rating, and they receive a transcript of the conversation sent to their email.

Smartcode Live Chat operates entirely within the WordPress environment, requiring no external accounts or monthly SaaS fees. This makes it suitable for WordPress site owners seeking a lightweight, privacy-friendly live chat solution that is fully under their control.
