Whatstran - Smart WhatsApp Chat & Support Plugin for WordPress
Boost your conversions and customer support with the most advanced WhatsApp chat plugin for WordPress.
Whatstran allows your visitors to contact you directly via WhatsApp with a single click. Unlike simple button plugins, Whatstran offers a complete chat experience with multiple agents, business hours, offline forms, analytics, and dynamic display rules.
🚀 Why Choose Whatstran?1. Multiple Agents Support
Don't limit your support to one person. Add multiple agents (Support, Sales, Tech) with their own:
- Custom Avatars & Names
- Job Titles (e.g., "Sales Manager")
- Individual Phone Numbers
- Pre-filled Messages (e.g., "I need help with billing")
- Online/Offline Status
2. Stunning & Customizable Design
Make it yours with a powerful design editor:
- 5 Premium Button Styles (Round, Pill, Gradient, etc.)
- Custom Colors to match your brand identity.
- Animations (Pulse, Shake, Bounce) to grab attention.
- Popup Header Customization: Add a custom title and description (e.g., "Replies in < 5m") to manage expectations.
- Tooltips: Add hover text to encourage clicks.
3. Embedded Buttons (New!)
Go beyond the floating widget. Embed WhatsApp buttons directly inside your content:
- Inline Placement: Add buttons after posts, before titles, or anywhere via shortcode [whatstran].
- Contextual Messages: Use variables like {post_title} and {post_url} to know exactly what the user is looking at (e.g., "Hi, I'm interested in [Product Name]").
- Dynamic Popups: Clicking an embedded button opens the chat popup with text specific to that button context.
4. Smart Display Rules
Control exactly where and when the button appears:
- Device Targeting: Show on Mobile, Desktop, or Tablet only.
- Page Targeting: Include/Exclude specific pages, posts, or product categories.
- User Targeting: Show only to logged-in users or guests.
- Time Triggers: Show immediately, after a delay, or on scroll.
5. Business Hours & Offline Mode
- Schedule Availability: Set working hours for each day of the week.
- Auto-Offline: Agents are automatically hidden outside business hours.
- Lead Capture: When offline, show a contact form instead of WhatsApp to capture leads (Premium).
6. Analytics & Insights
Stop guessing. Track your performance:
- Click Tracking: See which agents and pages get the most clicks.
- Device Reports: Understand your audience (Mobile vs Desktop).
- Integrations: Automatically sends events to Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager, and Facebook Pixel.
