GetFoxChat for WordPress

AI chat for your WordPress site that answers from your own pages

GetFoxChat adds a chat bubble to every page of your WordPress site. Behind it is the GetFoxChat AI operator (it starts as Foxy; rename it and give it your own avatar). It reads your site's public pages and posts and answers visitors from them.

What the chat operator does on your WordPress site

“Do you offer this service in my area?”“What are your opening hours?”“Where do I find your returns policy?”

It answers from your public pages and posts. It does not read your WordPress admin, drafts or private pages; when a visitor needs something only you know, it hands the conversation to you.

What visitors ask on WordPress sites

Questions visitors typically type on WordPress sites, the page that answers each, and what the operator does with it.

Service area

“Do you serve my area?”

Answered from: your service area or contact page. Answers from the towns or regions your pages list and links the page; if the visitor's area isn't mentioned, it says so and offers Talk to a person.

Hours

“What are your opening hours this weekend?”

Answered from: your contact or hours page. Repeats the hours your page publishes. It does not know about closures your pages don't mention.

Finding a post

“Where did you write about choosing the right plan?”

Answered from: your blog posts. Finds the post that covers the topic and links it, so readers don't have to dig through categories and archives.

Quotes

“How do I get a quote?”

Answered from: your quote or contact page. Points to your quote form or contact page and says what it asks for. It never estimates a price itself.

Accounts

“Is there a members area, and how do I log in?”

Answered from: your login or account page. Links the login page your site shows. It cannot see accounts or reset passwords, so login trouble goes to you.

Examples

“Do you have case studies from businesses like mine?”

Answered from: your portfolio or case study pages. Lists the case studies your pages publish that match what the visitor describes and links them.

Shop policies

“What is your returns policy for the shop?”

Answered from: your WooCommerce policy pages. Answers from the returns or terms page your shop links and quotes it as written.

Contact

“Can I talk to someone before I buy?”

Answered from: your contact page. Gives the phone number or email from your contact page and offers Talk to a person, so your team can reply from the GetFoxChat inbox.

Routing example on a WordPress site

Visitor

“I read your post about spring maintenance. Do you actually do that service near me, and how do I book it?”

Operator

“Yes, that service is listed on the services page, along with the areas it covers and how to request a visit. Here is the page; if your area isn't listed, I can pass this to the team.”

Page it points to

Services yoursite.com/services

WordPress sites often answer the how-to in a post but keep the offer on a services page, so the operator moves the reader from one to the other.

When it passes the conversation to you

WordPress notes before you add the line

Every step, requirement and note for WordPress, checked against WordPress's own docs: GetFoxChat install guide for WordPress.

See it on your WordPress site first

Type your site's address. GetFoxChat reads your public pages and opens a preview of the operator answering from them. No account, nothing to install.

Like it? Press Keep it on my site in the preview. You get a free account with your site already set up, and the install step opens on the WordPress steps when GetFoxChat can tell your site runs on WordPress.

Put it on your WordPress site: about two minutes

Install the GetFoxChat plugin

Get it from WordPress.org
Before you start: You need to be an Administrator. On WordPress.com, adding plugins needs a paid plan that allows plugins.
  1. In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins → Add New Plugin, search for GetFoxChat, and click Install Now on the GetFoxChat plugin.
  2. Click Activate.
  3. Press Connect this site (on the Plugins screen or under Settings → GetFoxChat). GetFoxChat opens in a new tab with your site address filled in; finish there and press Finish in WordPress. Your Site ID is in your GetFoxChat dashboard under Site Settings › Installation.

Then press Check my site in GetFoxChat.

It is one line of code that goes on every page. The quickest way is the GetFoxChat plugin above. If you would rather not add it, WordPress has no built-in box for site-wide code, so these steps use the free WPCode plugin from WordPress.org to hold the one line.

Before you start: You need to be an Administrator. On WordPress.com, adding plugins needs a paid plan that allows plugins.
  1. Create your free GetFoxChat account at getfoxchat.com/register and add your WordPress site's address. The install step shows your snippet with your site ID already in it, and a Copy button.
  2. In your WordPress admin, click Plugins in the left menu, then Add New Plugin.
  3. Search for "WPCode". Click Install Now on "WPCode – Insert Headers and Footers + Custom Code Snippets", then click Activate.
  4. In the left menu, click Code Snippets, then Header & Footer.
  5. Paste the snippet into the Footer box.
  6. Click Save Changes. Open your site in a new tab to check it loads.
  7. Back in GetFoxChat, press Check my site. The chat switches on once GetFoxChat finds the snippet on your site.

Already use a theme with its own "footer scripts" or "custom code" box? You can paste the snippet there instead and save.

The line looks like this. Yours has your own site ID in place of YOUR_SITE_ID:

<script src="https://getfoxchat.com/widget.js" data-site-id="YOUR_SITE_ID" defer></script>

Someone else runs your site? In GetFoxChat, press Send the code to my web person: it opens an email in your own email app with the snippet and a no-login guide link. WordPress's own help page: WPCode on WordPress.org.
