## Description

WordPress Live Chat Made Simple! Unlike other Live Chat plugins, this plugin works
within WordPress with no external API calls. Let’s you connect to your customers
in real-time.

#### Introduction

WSChat – ELEX WordPress Live Chat Plugin is a lightweight yet robust plugin that
helps to integrate live chat on your website to help your customers reach you most
conveniently!

Unlike other Live Chat plugins, this plugin works within WordPress with no external
API calls. We recommend using a dedicated server. As an alternative option, We have
even integrated pusher WebSockets APIs, to make it work on any servers.

Many customers prefer live chat to connect with organizations over emails and social
media as there are better chances to get a quick response compared to other sources.
Customers often need your assistance right before they make a purchase decision,
or in a critical situation in which they need an immediate solution. So, the ideal
option is sending a quick text through the live chat window rather than typing a
long formal email.

Using this live chat solution, agents can easily reply, assist, and take up a chat
conversation if a customer needs assistance in the future as all conversations are
recorded in the same chat thread. Live Chat Made Simple! Unlike other Live Chat 
plugins, this plugin works within WordPress with no external API calls. Let’s you
connect to your customers in real-time.

### 󠀁[Have been seeking 8+ years now – and found, what i need!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/have-been-seeking-8-years-now-and-found-what-i-need/)󠁿

 [tomlandon](https://profiles.wordpress.org/tomlandon/) March 1, 2025 2 replies

Hello, there. Thanks a lot indeed for your great chat plug-in – which i seriousely
have been seeking for 8+ years now. I like the customization options, but with some.
css knowledge one can create the nearly perfect chat plug-in on the market (my opinion).
Reasons: The admin section is clear, open and super easy to use, options list is
short, but good. What it has to have (currently missing), is the option to translate
to any language (best by using a translation section in the admin area). I will 
do the translation to german language from now – and very fast. So PLEASE, PLEASE
update at least the language files, so that my translation work does make sense 
by return. What i also would like to see, is more integrations (in example with 
wpdiscuz, buddypress, youzify – or similar). Thanks again! Truly … Tom.
