## Description

**ZebChat** puts a live chat widget on your WordPress site so your team can answer
visitors in real time, from the web dashboard or the Android and iOS apps.

#### In WordPress

 * Sign in to an existing ZebChat account, or create one (you and your first organization).
 * Create a website for this WordPress hostname, or choose one you already have.
 * Turn the chat widget on or off. While it is on, WordPress adds the install code
   for you.

#### In the ZebChat dashboard

The inbox, visitor map, widget colours, team, reports and billing stay on [app.zebchat.com](https://app.zebchat.com/).
This plugin links there. It does not copy those screens into WordPress.

#### Mobile apps

Answer chats on your phone. The apps are included with every ZebChat account.

 * [App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/zebchat-live-chat-for-websites/id6820005939)
 * [Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zebchat.app)

The site key in the install code is public. Passwords and session tokens are sent
only to the ZebChat API and are stored in WordPress options, never printed on the
site.

### External services

This plugin connects to ZebChat (https://www.zebchat.com/), a live chat service 
by Tech Avenue Labs. The plugin needs it to work: the chat, the inbox and the visitor
data live in ZebChat.

**ZebChat API** (https://api.zebchat.com/), called from your server, only when an
administrator uses the ZebChat settings screen:

 * Creating an account sends the name, email address, password and organization 
   name you enter.
 * Signing in sends your email address and password (and the two-factor code, if
   your account uses one). ZebChat returns a session that is stored in this site’s
   options.
 * Loading and saving the settings reads your organizations and websites; adding
   this site sends its name and hostname.

**ZebChat chat widget**, loaded in your visitors’ browsers only while the chat is
turned on. It sends ZebChat the page address and title, browser and device type,
approximate location from the IP address, and the messages, files and contact details
visitors choose to send. Cookie and consent options are set per website in the ZebChat
dashboard.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `zebchat` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install the zip from 
    Plugins  Add New  Upload Plugin.
 2. Activate **ZebChat**.
 3. Open **ZebChat** in the admin menu.
 4. Sign in, or create an account.
 5. Create a website for this site, or select an existing one, and turn live chat on.

## FAQ

### Where do replies and settings live?

In the ZebChat dashboard at https://app.zebchat.com/. WordPress only connects the
account, chooses the website and shows or hides the widget.

### The chat does not appear.

Confirm live chat is turned on and a website is selected. The widget loads only 
on the hostnames allowed for that website. Your WordPress address (with and without
www) is sent when you create the website here.

### I use two-factor authentication.

Yes. After your email and password, enter the 6-digit code from your authenticator
app (or a recovery code).

### How do I remove the chat?

Turn **Show the chat widget on this site** off and save. Deleting the plugin removes
the stored session and the widget settings.
