  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress

External services

This plugin connects to the Hay.chat service (https://hay.chat) to provide the chat widget. It is not a standalone chat system.

  • On every public page where the widget is enabled, the visitor's browser loads widget.js and widget.css from the Hay.chat server you configure (default https://eu.hay.chat). Chat messages typed by visitors are sent to that server so the AI agent can respond.
  • When you click "Connect with Hay.chat" in the settings, your browser is sent to the Hay.chat dashboard with your site name and URL so you can pick an organization; the dashboard redirects back with your Organization ID.
  • No data is sent from your server to Hay.chat by this plugin itself.
