screets Chat

Appearance

Add Chat to your website ​

Add screets Chat widget on different platforms. Currently supported only HTML, PHP and WordPress.

HTML ​

If you've a website with multiple pages where each one triggers a new page refresh, then you'll most likely need the basic JavaScript method.

Before you begin

Ensure you've created your first application on screets Cloud.

See installation.

To get chat widget on your website, simply copy and paste the snippet below before the </body> tag on every page where you want the chat widget to appear for website visitors.

html
<script>
 window.screetsxi = {
   appid: "__YOUR_APP_ID__",
 };
 (function(){var w = window;var i = function() { i.c( arguments ); };i.q = []; i.c = function( args ) { i.q.push(args); };w.scxi = i;w.addEventListener( "load", function() {var b = document.createElement("script");b.src = 'https://widget.screets.io/_/'+w.screetsxi.appid;b.async = !0;document.head.appendChild(b);}, !1 );})();
</script>

TIP

You can find APP_ID on "Installation" settings page in your chat console.

WordPress ​

Installing the Chat on your WordPress is simple.

You'll want to:

  • First, go to Downloads page (Envato)
  • Find the screets Chat item and click Download > "Installable WordPress file only"
  • Now go to your WordPress dashboard > Plugins > Add new > Upload page
  • Upload the zip file you've just downloaded
  • Click "Activate"

Connect your WordPress ​

Because Chat comes with an embedded chat console inside of your WordPress admin panel, you need additional security layer.

  • Go to Settings > Chat
  • Click "Connect" button
  • You'll be redirected to the confirm page about your WordPress admin:
Connect WordPress
  • Click "Confirm" if it's your WordPress admin URL
  • Now you can sign in with one of providers (i.e. Envato, Google). If you don't have an account, you'll be asked to create one:
Connect WordPress
  • If you don't have an account or any application yet, you'll be asked to "Create first app". This page will also create an account on screets (see Installation page for details):
Connect WordPress
  • Click "Create first app" to complete setup. If you click "Cancel", none of your data will be saved onto screets server and you'll be forgotten immediately
Connect WordPress
  • If everything is OK, you should be redirected back to your WordPress Chat settings page and see "Connected" notification:
Connect WordPress
  • That's all 👍 Now you can go to chat console by clicking "Chat" menu item on your admin menu.
