Learn from the people who use it.** Chat4U helps you create an AI agent for your WordPress website without coding or AI expertise. Give it your business information, choose what it should help with, and shape how it speaks and looks. Your visitors get a conversational way to explore what you offer. You get a clearer understanding of their questions, needs and concerns. #### Help customers find answers and make decisions “Which service is right for me?” “What’s included?” “How do I get started?” Your agent uses the information you provide to answer questions, explain options and guide visitors to relevant pages. Put your website content to work in a conversation that helps people understand your business and decide what to do next. #### Capture leads within the conversation When a visitor is interested in hearing more, your agent can offer a contact form that fits the conversation. You choose the details to collect; visitors review and submit their information, giving you a request you can follow up on. #### Discover what your customers need Chat4U’s Conversation Intelligence helps you see which questions keep coming up, what visitors cannot find and where conversations get stuck. Get recommendations for improving your content, customer experience and sales approach, with the supporting conversations available to review. Use what you learn to explain your services more clearly, fill gaps in your website and identify conversations that deserve follow-up. You decide what to change. #### Start with the content you already have Connect your WordPress website so your agent can use its public pages, posts and other public content. Changes are picked up automatically, helping your agent stay aligned with your website. You can also add documents and other business information in Chat4U. Use the public content you already publish in different languages, choose a response style that suits your business, and customize your agent’s appearance. Choose when to show it as part of the same setup in Chat4U. You can turn native placement off later in WordPress settings. A Chat4U account and a plan with WordPress integration are required. Conversation Intelligence and other features vary by plan. See [Chat4U plans](https://chat4u.ai/pricing) for details. [Create your agent](https://app.chat4u.ai/register) or follow the [WordPress setup guide](https://chat4u.ai/docs/install/wordpress). #### Optional WooCommerce assistance WordPress users, comments, form submissions, drafts, private and password-protected posts are excluded from public content synchronization. Private order assistance is separate and requires current native sign-in or a verified guest grant for one order; it does not import order history into the public source. Only content independently accessible without login is admitted. Membership software, multilingual plugins, builders, caching and security plugins can affect accessibility; check coverage in Chat4U. WordPress Multisite and headless installations are currently unsupported. Where enabled in Chat4U and allowed in these native settings, WooCommerce assistance adds public products to the same source, checks live product details, changes the existing native cart after shopper authorization, applies/removes shopper-provided coupons, and hands payment to native checkout. Unsupported product requirements stay in the store. Bookings are not included. ### External service This plugin connects your website to the Chat4U online service. It requires a Chat4U account and an eligible subscription, managed directly with Chat4U. There is no separate subscription billed through WordPress. You choose when to connect. During setup, the plugin sends your website’s identity, addresses and temporary connection details to Chat4U so you can confirm the correct account and project. After you confirm, Chat4U reads public website content and checks for changes. Connection credentials are stored in WordPress and encrypted in Chat4U; they are not included in public website scripts. WordPress user accounts, comments, existing form submissions, WooCommerce orders, drafts, private pages and password-protected posts are not imported. Public custom fields are included only when Chat4U can verify that they are publicly available. When you enable the assistant, visitors’ browsers connect to Chat4U to load it and send their messages. If you enable contact capture, submitted contact details are also sent to Chat4U under your configured privacy notice and consent settings. Review those settings and update your website’s privacy policy before showing the assistant. Suggested wording is available in WordPress’s privacy tools.

Chat4U receives opaque expiring handles and minimized cart or authorized order results. Guest order number, email and six-digit verification code are sent directly to this store; its configured mail provider sends the code. Codes expire in ten minutes, permit five attempts and enforce a 60-second resend interval. One verified guest order is available for ten minutes; a separate private-answer proof lasts 60 seconds. Dedicated verification fields do not enter Chat4U prompts or durable chat history. Minimized authorized order results may enter the configured model for the current answer, with neutral durable history afterward. Optional purchase measurement defaults off. A supported active WP Consent API/Complianz setup, known consent type and explicit recorded Allow are required. Native checkout correlation is separate from confirmed payment/refund evidence. Cart or checkout clicks do not prove payment. Turning measurement off freezes historical totals and may leave later refunds unreflected. Visitor withdrawal removes attribution while retaining necessary minimized uncertain-action deduplication records. WordPress privacy tools support export/erasure of this plugin’s metadata; they do not delete the underlying order. Expiry denies use independently of cleanup. Authenticated service control and native scheduling/request hooks run bounded local cleanup, including when content updates are paused or the Knowledge source was removed. If the plugin is unreachable or removed without its hooks, Chat4U cannot verify physical deletion on the merchant’s host. Unresolved sending/unknown action identifiers and hashes remain non-executable evidence after secret payload expiry. Current installed qualification uses WordPress 7.1.3, WooCommerce 11.2.1, PHP8.2, WP Consent API2.1.0 and Complianz7.5.6. This is not a compatibility guarantee for every theme, extension, consent manager or payment gateway. Legal-publication and release qualification must be complete before customer enablement. ## Installation 1. In WordPress, open Plugins > Add Plugin, search for Chat4U Website Assistant, then install and activate it. You can also upload the ZIP downloaded from this plugin page. 2. Open Settings > Chat4U and review the service disclosure. 3. Choose Connect, then create your Chat4U account or sign in. Choose an existing workspace/project or set up a new one and its plan. 4. Choose your website assistant and whether to show it. Chat4U assigns WordPress content to that assistant and applies your confirmed display choice in the same setup. If you need a new assistant, finish its guided settings and confirm showing it there. 5. Inspect Knowledge coverage and your project’s word allowance. An eligible existing assistant can use its other knowledge while WordPress content imports. 6. Open the published website while signed out and confirm there is one widget. Setup explains an existing manual Chat4U embed and lets you keep a matching assistant or replace a conflicting embed yourself. Older connections may need one WordPress- admin confirmation for the new setup controls. ## FAQ ### Will it work with my website? Chat4U connects public WordPress websites that can install plugins. Page builders, language plugins, membership settings, caching and security tools can affect which content is publicly readable; check the connected content in Chat4U after setup. WordPress Multisite and headless installations are currently unsupported. Optional WooCommerce assistance requires support in both this plugin and Chat4U, with the relevant permissions enabled. Unsupported product requirements stay in your store. Bookings are not included. ### What happens if my website has more content than my plan allows? Chat4U uses the word allowance shared by your project’s content sources, including active word add-ons. Each published translation counts toward that allowance. Complete pages and posts that fit can be used; the rest wait until you add capacity or free space. Chat4U never cuts a page short just to fit it in. You can see what is ready and what is waiting in Chat4U. ### What happens during a connection problem? During a temporary outage, your assistant can keep using eligible content for up to 72 hours from the last verified update. A connection check alone does not extend that window. Confirmed removals, disconnection, plugin deactivation or deletion, revoked access, or loss of your plan’s integration access stop affected content from being used immediately. If your website is unreachable and cannot send a notice, automatic checks and the 72-hour limit still apply. Cached website pages may still contain the assistant’s loader, but Chat4U checks whether the connection and assistant are still allowed to run. ### How do I remove the connection? Disconnect in Chat4U to revoke service access. Deactivating the plugin also sends a signed revocation notice. Uninstall removes this plugin’s local options, schedule and change table. Your posts and users are preserved. Deleting the Knowledge source is separate from disconnecting the site. ### Why is content missing? Check coverage and language warnings in Chat4U. The page must be public over HTTPS, anonymously accessible from the service, and part of a verified site/language origin. Check password protection, membership rules, bot protection, REST restrictions and available word capacity. Fix the host configuration and allow automatic recovery, or use Update now in Chat4U. ### Where is the source? The ZIP contains readable PHP and JavaScript; no build, minification or hidden executable download is required. The platform repository contains the reproducible packaging script and protocol tests. The assistant uses the separately hosted Chat4U widget. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Chat4U Website Assistant” is open source software.

[Browse the code](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/chat4u/), check out the [SVN repository](https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/chat4u/), or subscribe to the [development log](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/log/chat4u/) by [RSS](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/log/chat4u/?limit=100&mode=stop_on_copy&format=rss). ## Changelog #### 0.3.0 * Complete account, project, assistant and website display setup in one guided journey with the compatible Chat4U service. * Add signed display control and readback, local-setting conflict protection and website-load diagnostics. * Show selected assistant and content assignment in native settings. Keep local pause controls and existing WooCommerce permissions. #### 0.2.0 Optional WooCommerce products, native cart/coupons, checkout handoff and scoped order support share the existing WordPress connection. Core qualification currently uses WooCommerce 11.2.1, WordPress 7.1.3 and PHP 8.2.34; this does not qualify arbitrary extensions, themes or gateways. Coming-soon products and cart/checkout/account pages are excluded from public Knowledge. Native and Chat4U permissions must both allow a capability. Private cart handles expire within 15 minutes; one-order guest grants last 10 minutes and private turn proofs 60 seconds. Guest request responses remain neutral, including throttled requests. Resending a code invalidates its previous challenge. WordPress developers can configure abuse limits with chat4u_order_verification_limits; rate limits do not grant order access. Delivery diagnostics record only acceptance/failure and time. Optional measurement requires explicit WP Consent API/Complianz permission and the WooCommerce Stripe gateway’s captured live-charge response contract. Test-mode charges, manual paid statuses and other unqualified payment methods do not establish a purchase. Native metadata is removed through bounded cleanup within a 90-day horizon; unresolved action details are scrubbed while minimal replay protection remains. A separate encrypted cleanup pointer survives measurement-key revocation. Uninstall removes exact Chat4U metadata from classic and HPOS storage without deleting orders. Native backups follow the merchant’s own backup policy; key revocation is not a claim that backup copies have already been physically removed. Store functions depend on the merchant permissions and compatibility checks described above. Other payment gateways and extensions are not qualified. #### 0.1.1 * Redesign WordPress settings with C4U branding, clear connection steps and improved mobile and right-to-left layouts. * Make connection status and assistant visibility controls easier to understand. #### 0.1.0 Initial qualification build: signed pairing, public Knowledge synchronization, per- language coverage, whole-record capacity deferral, recovery and optional native widget placement. ## Meta * Version **0.3.0** * Last updated **9 hours ago** * Active installations **Fewer than 10** * WordPress version ** 6.8 or higher ** * Tested up to **7.1.4** * PHP version ** 8.2 or higher ** * Tags * [assistant](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/assistant/)[chatbot](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/chatbot/) [knowledge](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/knowledge/) * [Advanced View](https://wordpress.org/plugins/chat4u/advanced/) ## Ratings No reviews have been submitted yet.
