ChatLink for WooCommerce
ChatLink for WooCommerce adds a customizable WhatsApp floating button to your site so visitors can start a chat in a single click. The button can open WhatsApp directly or display a small chat popup with a welcome message and quick FAQ replies.
For WooCommerce stores, ChatLink can turn products into ”inquiry by WhatsApp” items instead of using the normal cart flow. You can optionally hide add-to-cart buttons, prices, and even redirect cart/checkout to keep everything as conversation-based inquiries.
Shortcodes are included so you can drop WhatsApp buttons anywhere in your content, landing pages, or widgets. The plugin is lightweight, uses standard WordPress APIs, and is designed to work with most themes.
