FAQ
-
Where do I find my Website Token?
-
Log in to your Chatwik dashboard, open Settings Inboxes List, and copy the Widget Token from the middle column for your Website inbox. The plugin settings page includes a screenshot of this screen.
-
Why is the widget not showing on my site?
-
Check the following:
- The widget is enabled in Settings Chatwik.
- A valid Website Token is saved.
- Your WordPress site domain is listed under Allowed domains in the Chatwik Website channel configuration.
- You are viewing the public frontend (not the WordPress admin).
-
Can I use a self-hosted Chatwik instance?
-
This plugin connects to Chatwik Cloud at
https://app.chatwik.com. Custom instance URLs are not supported in this version. -
Does this plugin send data to third parties?
-
The plugin stores your settings in WordPress and loads the Chatwik widget script from Chatwik Cloud when enabled. It does not send analytics or usage data to Chatwik independently of the widget itself.
-
Yes. Enable Hide message bubble on load in the settings, then use the Chatwik JavaScript SDK methods to open the widget from your theme or custom code.
