Mô tả
Meerlume turns a plain-language description of your business into a chat that answers questions, takes bookings against your real availability and captures enquiries. The same bot runs on WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram, Messenger and your website.
This is the official Meerlume plugin. It puts your Meerlume bot’s website chat on your WordPress site. Paste your bot’s code once and you’re done.
- A chat bubble on every page. Visitors open it from the corner of the screen and it follows them around the site.
- Or the chat inside a page. Add
[meerlume]to a “Book now” or “Contact” page to show the conversation right in the page. - Nothing to keep in sync. Colours, position, greeting and theme are set in your Meerlume dashboard and change on your site as soon as you save them there.
- You stay in the loop. New bookings and enquiries land in your Meerlume inbox, you’re notified by email, Telegram or in the dashboard, and you can step into any conversation and reply yourself.
What you need
A Meerlume account with a bot that has Website chat connected and is published. Website chat is included on every plan, Free too; see pricing. Create your bot.
Branding
On the Free plan the chat window shows a small “Powered by Meerlume” link. It is part of the chat that Meerlume serves, not something this plugin adds to your pages, and Starter and higher plans remove it.
External services
This plugin connects your site to Meerlume, a hosted chat service run by Meerlume LLC. It does nothing without it.
Chat loader — meerlume.com. On every page where the chat is shown (the bubble, or a page with [meerlume]), the visitor’s browser loads https://meerlume.com/widget.js. The request carries what any browser request does: the visitor’s IP address, user agent and the page address.
Chat window — go.meerlume.com. On every page load where the chat is shown, before the visitor opens it, the loader requests https://go.meerlume.com/c/<your code>/appearance to draw the chat in your colours. Meerlume keeps only a daily count of these loads per bot, with nothing that identifies the visitor. When the chat opens (straight away for a chat inside a page, on click for the bubble), it loads in a frame from https://go.meerlume.com/c/<your code>, which is told your site’s address. What a visitor types or taps in the chat, including any contact details they choose to give, is sent to Meerlume and stored for you, the site owner. The chat keeps the conversation for the length of the browser session in session storage on go.meerlume.com. The bubble also remembers, in session storage on your site, that a visitor dismissed its greeting.
Code check — go.meerlume.com. When you save a new chat code in Settings Meerlume, your server requests https://go.meerlume.com/c/<your code>/appearance once to tell you whether the chat is live. Only the code is sent; the request does not include your site’s address.

[meerlume] shortcode.
Cài đặt
- Install and activate the plugin.
- In Meerlume, open your bot’s Settings Website chat, connect it, and copy the share link or the 7-character code.
- In WordPress, go to Settings Meerlume, paste it into “Chat code” and save.
The settings page tells you when it has found your chat. To show the chat inside a page instead of in the bubble, add [meerlume] to that page.
Hỏi đáp
-
Where do I change the chat’s colour, position or greeting?
-
In your Meerlume dashboard, under your bot’s Settings Website chat. The plugin reads them from Meerlume every time the chat loads, so there’s nothing to change in WordPress.
-
Can I put the chat inside a page?
-
Yes. Add the
[meerlume]shortcode to any page or post, or use a Shortcode block. The chat grows with the conversation; to give it a fixed height, use[meerlume height="600"]. Pages with the chat inside don’t also show the bubble. -
Can I use more than one bot on the same site?
-
Yes. The code in Settings Meerlume is the default. To show a different bot on one page, pass its code:
[meerlume code="K3F9QXA"]. -
I saved the code but no chat appears
-
Clear your caching plugin’s cache after saving, and make sure no performance plugin combines, delays or hosts
meerlume.com/widget.jsitself: the chat reads its settings from its own script tag. If the bubble appears but the chat says the business isn’t taking messages right now, connect Website chat to the bot in Meerlume and publish it. The setup guide covers the rest. -
Does it slow my site down?
-
The loader script is loaded asynchronously in the footer, so it never holds up your page. The conversation itself runs in a frame served by Meerlume.
-
What about privacy and GDPR?
-
The chat shows your privacy notice before a visitor shares any details, and Meerlume processes the conversation on your behalf under the data processing terms in section 20 of the Meerlume Terms. The plugin sets no cookies and stores nothing about your visitors in your WordPress database.

- The Setup guide link now opens the WordPress guide.
- Corrected the troubleshooting answer: an unpublished bot still shows the bubble, and its chat says the business isn’t taking messages.
1.0.0
- First release: site-wide chat bubble,
[meerlume]shortcode, and a settings page that checks your code.
