DoubleDown AI Chat

Description

If you are a DoubleDown AI customer, this plugin puts your AI chatbot on your website without
you having to paste any code into your theme.

The plugin is deliberately tiny. All it does is load one script:

https://www.doubledownai.co.za/w/YOUR-SITE-KEY.js

That script is generated for your business by DoubleDown AI and contains your chatbot. The plugin
adds no shortcodes, no blocks, no post types, no database tables and no admin widgets, and it
does not modify any of your content.

You need a DoubleDown AI account. This plugin does nothing on its own. Sign up at
doubledownai.co.za.

Setup

  1. Install and activate.
  2. That is usually it — the plugin asks DoubleDown AI which site key belongs to this domain and
    stores it.
  3. If your domain cannot be matched automatically, go to Settings DoubleDown AI Chat and
    enter the 6-character code shown in your DoubleDown AI dashboard.

External services

This plugin relies on the DoubleDown AI service. It is not usable without it.

1. Pairing — https://www.doubledownai.co.za/api/wh/wp-pair

Called ONCE when you activate the plugin, and again only if you press “Connect” or “Try automatic
setup again” on the settings screen. It sends:

  • your site address (home_url()), so we can find which DoubleDown AI account it belongs to
  • your WordPress version and this plugin’s version, so we can support you
  • the 6-character pairing code, if and only if you typed one

It sends no personal data, no user accounts, no post content and no visitor information. The
response is your site key, or a request for a pairing code.

2. The chatbot — https://www.doubledownai.co.za/w/YOUR-SITE-KEY.js

Loaded by your visitors’ browsers on every page, exactly as if you had pasted the script tag into
your theme yourself. This is the chatbot itself. What it collects from your visitors is governed
by your DoubleDown AI account settings and your own privacy policy.

FAQ

Do I need a DoubleDown AI account?

Yes. Without one there is no chatbot to load, and the plugin will simply do nothing.

Where do I find my 6-character code?

In your DoubleDown AI dashboard, on the install step. Codes last 30 minutes and can be used once.

Does this slow my site down?

The script is loaded asynchronously and in the footer, so it never blocks your page from
rendering.

How do I remove the chatbot?

Deactivate the plugin. The chatbot stops loading immediately. Deleting the plugin also removes
the stored site key.

Can I put it on only some pages?

Not from this plugin — it is intentionally a one-setting loader. Ask DoubleDown AI support and we
will do it for you.
