Upload the `heyspark` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or install from the WordPress plugin directory. 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress. 3. Click **HeySpark** in the admin sidebar to access the inbox. 4. Visit **HeySpark > Settings** to customize the widget and notifications. 5. Browse to any page on your site. The chat launcher appears bottom-right by default. ## Hỏi đáp ### Does HeySpark connect to a third-party server? No. Conversations are stored in your WordPress database. All real-time communication happens between the visitor’s browser and your own server via the WordPress REST API. ### How does real-time live chat work without a third-party service? HeySpark uses long-polling against the WordPress REST API. The visitor’s browser holds an open request that returns as soon as new activity happens on your conversation. It works on standard PHP hosting with no special server configuration. ### Will it work with caching plugins? Yes. The widget loads via deferred JavaScript and fetches its state over the REST API after the page loads, so cached HTML is fine. The admin inbox is not cached ( WP-Admin is never cached). ### How do I customize the widget’s colors? Open **HeySpark Settings**, pick a brand color, change the greeting text or launcher position, and save. The live preview shows your changes before you commit. ### Can I hide the chat on mobile devices? Yes. Uncheck **Show on mobile devices** in Settings. ### What happens when I close a conversation? The conversation is marked closed. The visitor sees a “This conversation has ended” banner with a button to start a new live chat. Past conversations appear in their widget home screen so they can view the history. ### Is it GDPR-compliant? Enable the **GDPR consent checkbox** in Settings and set your consent text. The pre-chat form will require the visitor to agree before sending. Visitor conversations are stored with a hashed, HttpOnly cookie. No personal data beyond what the visitor submits. By default HeySpark does not contact any third-party service with visitor data. See the FAQ entry below if you want to enable Gravatar-based visitor avatars (off by default; requires explicit opt-in). ### Does HeySpark contact any third-party servers? By default, no. Conversations, settings, agents and visitor sessions all live in your own WordPress database. There is one optional integration: under **Settings → Visitor tracking** you can turn on “Fetch visitor avatars from Gravatar”. When enabled, hashed visitor emails are sent to Gravatar (run by Automattic) to fetch avatar images shown in the admin inbox. This setting is off by default and the plugin makes no external requests for visitor data unless you opt in. Agent avatars in the admin inbox use WordPress’s built-in `get_avatar_url()` for the logged-in agent’s own account — this is standard WordPress behaviour, governed by the agent’s own profile rather than the plugin. ### Does the plugin work with multisite? Each site in a multisite network runs its own HeySpark install with its own conversations and settings. No network-wide inbox in v1. ### How do I translate HeySpark? A POT file is included at `/languages/heyspark.pot`. Use Poedit, Loco Translate, or translate.wordpress.org to create a translation. ## Đánh giá ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/ffc2521d29d43b3a7f6daa9001e0280f8b1b39c72939d23ddf8af64c58d023d2? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Easy to use and works great](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/easy-to-use-and-works-great-97/)󠁿 [leeannnich](https://profiles.wordpress.org/leeannnich/) 28 Tháng 5, 2026 Great plugin! Easy to set up and works straight away. Having the chat inbox inside WordPress makes it super easy to reply to messages and manage chats. I also really like that everything stays private on your own website, without needing third-party services or monthly fees.
