Channels

Add a chat widget to your website

The website chat puts a small chat bubble on your site. Visitors chat with the same AI assistant that answers your WhatsApp, can send photos or documents, and can jump to WhatsApp in one tap. It can also show buttons for your other channels (Instagram, Telegram, email…).

Set it up (5 minutes)

1

Open Channels

In the left menu, open Channels and find the Website chat card. Click Create website chat.

2

Make it yours

Under Look, set the title, greeting, color and position, and choose the language (or let it follow your website). Under Chat, choose whether visitors can send files.

3

Add your other channels (optional)

Under “Other channel buttons”, add your WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, TikTok, Telegram, email or phone links. Visitors see them under “Or message us on”.

4

Copy the code

Under Install, click Copy code and paste it just before </body> on every page of your website, or send it to your web designer. On WordPress, Wix or Shopify, paste it into the “custom code” / “footer scripts” setting.

5

Check it’s installed

Type your website address under Check your website and click Check. Once the chat has loaded on your site, it also shows under Seen on, with when it was last seen.

6

Test it

Open your website in a private window, click the bubble and ask a question. The reply comes from your AI assistant within a few seconds.

Useful options

Only on these websites: list your domain (for example myclinic.ae) so the widget can’t be copied onto someone else’s site.

Ask for details before the chat starts: collect name, email or phone before the first message, optionally as required fields.

Channel buttons only: turn off Live AI chat to show just the buttons for your other channels, a floating contact button.

Continue on WhatsApp: adds a button that opens WhatsApp with a short reference, so the conversation carries on in your WhatsApp inbox.

Office hours (Hours tab): use your business hours from Inbox settings or set the widget’s own. Outside those hours visitors see your away message and when you’re back. The AI assistant keeps answering either way.

Chat button (Launcher & greeting tab): a round icon or an icon with text such as “Chat with us”, how far from the corner it sits, and whether to hide it on phones.

Greeting bubble (Greet visitors with a bubble): a short message that pops up next to the chat button after a few seconds, at most once a day per visitor.

Where the chats appear

Website conversations appear in your Conversations / Inbox with a globe icon, next to your WhatsApp chats. You can take over, reply and use AI Assist exactly as on WhatsApp.

If you don’t see this in your panel yet, email support@orcaflo-panel.com and we’ll switch it on for your business.

Questions

No. It is one small script (about 11 KB) that loads after your page and doesn’t use cookies.
