Live Chat Reply by Telegram (powered by Chatgram) drops a polished floating chat widget on every page of your WordPress site. When a visitor sends a message, the conversation lands instantly in your Telegram chat \u2014 no extra inbox, no extra app to learn. Reply right from Telegram, and your visitor receives your reply by email.<\/p>\n\n
This plugin is built and maintained by brandID. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Telegram FZ-LLC or Telegram Messenger Inc. Telegram is a trademark of its respective owners and is used here only to describe the messaging service this plugin integrates with.<\/p>\n\n
This plugin connects to the Chatgram API, an external service operated by brandID, to deliver visitor messages from your contact form to your Telegram account. The plugin cannot function without this service because Telegram delivery is performed by the Chatgram backend.<\/p>\n\n
The plugin communicates with the Chatgram API in three situations:<\/p>\n\n
1. When you first open Chatgram \u2192 Setup in the WordPress admin (one-time handshake)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 2. When a visitor submits the contact form<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 3. When the plugin is deactivated or uninstalled<\/strong><\/p>\n\n The plugin does not<\/strong> call the Chatgram API on activation; the handshake is deferred until you open the Setup screen so the invite link is generated only when needed. No analytics, tracking pixels, fingerprinting, or third-party CDN scripts are loaded.<\/p>\n\n By installing and activating this plugin, you agree to the Chatgram Terms of Service and Privacy Policy linked above. You should also disclose this third-party data transmission in your own website's privacy policy.<\/p>\n\n This plugin bundles a single compiled JavaScript file at All other plugin code (PHP, CSS, and admin-side JavaScript) is shipped in its original, human-readable form. No minified or compiled assets are loaded from third-party CDNs.<\/p>\n\n To rebuild the widget locally from the included source:<\/p>\n\n Yes. The whole point of the plugin is to deliver messages straight to your Telegram. Telegram is free to install on iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, Linux, and the web.<\/p><\/dd>\n The widget mounts itself on Chatgram \u2192 Settings \u2192 Appearance<\/strong> for colors and corner radii, Chatgram \u2192 Settings \u2192 Text & labels<\/strong> for every visible string. All customizations are stored locally on your WordPress site \u2014 they are not sent to any external service.<\/p><\/dd>\n The bundled widget is small (roughly 10 KB minified and gzipped) and loaded with Yes. Go to Chatgram \u2192 Settings \u2192 General<\/strong> and uncheck \"Show widget on site\".<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. The plugin only sends data when:<\/p>\n\n No tracking cookies, fingerprinting, or analytics are added to your site. See the External services<\/strong> section above for full details.<\/p><\/dd>\n Deactivate the plugin from Plugins<\/strong>, then click Delete<\/strong>. WordPress runs Yes:<\/p>\n\n The Chatgram API endpoint is fixed ( No. This plugin is developed and maintained by brandID and integrates with the Telegram messaging service using the public Telegram Bot API. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Telegram.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n\n
