Modulux Chat Box
Beschrijving
Modulux Chat Box is designed to reduce unnecessary direct messages by guiding visitors to predefined answers before they contact you.
Instead of immediately opening WhatsApp, visitors see a searchable list of frequently asked questions. Only if they confirm that their question is not listed can they proceed to contact you.
This approach helps:
– Reduce repetitive questions
– Save time for store owners and support teams
– Improve user experience without blocking communication
The plugin is fully self-contained, multilingual-friendly, and follows WordPress.org coding standards.
Why Modulux Chat Box?
Many chat plugins rely on:
– External SaaS services
– Heavy icon libraries
– Tracking scripts
– Bloated frontend frameworks
Modulux Chat Box does none of these.
✔ No external APIs
✔ No tracking or analytics
✔ No third-party icon libraries
✔ No SaaS dependencies
Everything runs locally inside WordPress.
