Description
TechNXT AI Chat Assistant is a lightweight integration plugin that brings TechNXT AI chatbots to your WordPress website or WooCommerce store.
Key Features:
* One-Click Login: Sign in with your TechNXT account credentials directly inside WordPress.
* Organization & Widget Selector: Choose from your TechNXT Organizations and Chatbot widgets via live dropdowns.
* Customer Awareness: Optionally identify logged-in WooCommerce/WordPress customers (name and email) in the chat widget when visitor recognition is enabled.
* Visibility Options: Control which pages show the widget, with URL exclusion patterns and WooCommerce cart/checkout suppression.
* Privacy Options: Enable or disable visitor recognition; optionally configure a Javascript API Key for Secure Mode.
* WooCommerce Optimization: One-click WooCommerce REST API authorization so the AI assistant can search products and read shopping context.
* Shortcode Support: Trigger the chatbot using [technxt_chat_trigger].
External services
This plugin requires the TechNXT cloud service (configured via the App URL in settings, typically https://app.technxt.co) to provide AI chat, account login, organization/widget selection, and the storefront chat widget.
What the service is used for:
* Authenticate the site administrator with their TechNXT account.
* Load organizations and chatbot widgets for selection.
* Load the TechNXT widget script and related assets (logo images, widget JS) on the admin and/or storefront.
* Power AI chat replies for website visitors through the TechNXT widget.
What data is sent and when:
* On admin login: the administrator’s email and password are sent to the TechNXT App URL (/api/auth/login) so the plugin can obtain a session.
* After login (admin only): authenticated API requests are sent to list organizations and chatbots, using the stored session cookie.
* On storefront pages where the widget is enabled: the browser loads technxt-widget.js (and the widget UI) from the TechNXT App URL. Chat messages typed by visitors are sent to TechNXT so the AI can reply.
* If “Enable visitor recognition” is turned on: the logged-in customer’s name and email may be passed to the widget for personalization. This is off by default and controlled by the site administrator.
* Admin screens may load a TechNXT-hosted logo image from the App URL.

FAQ

It is the base URL of your TechNXT SaaS instance, e.g.
https://app.technxt.co. -
What credentials do I use to log in?
-
The same email and password you use to log in to the TechNXT dashboard.
