<h4>Introduction</h4>
Chatster is a WooCommerce extension that allows real time chat with visiting users, supports your website growth with a BOT that will try to answer your customer questions and allows users to send messages and ask questions. 

The plugin is customizable, you can choose chat colors, bot image, screen position and much more.. Plenty of options are available for the front chat as well as the admin area.
The chat system will balance the load of customers across all admins that have selected to be online. 
You can select the maximum number of users you want to chat with simultaneously and Chatster will create a queue, inform the customers of their queue status and display in the admin chat the total number of user waiting. 
One of the cool features is the possibility to search product and pages without leaving conversation and attach them directly to the chat, where the customer can see and even follow the link.

The Bot helper will be your delegate when you are not around. You can program questions and answers. He will read the customer question, research the best match and pull the most appropriate answer. 
You can also adjust sensitivity and enable deep-search mode and personalize its responses.
If the customer requires a direct interaction and the chat is offline, the message me button is one click away. They can simply fill out the small form and send the question or comment through and it will be posted in the Chatster messaging section. 
Chatster can also alert you of new messages received, with an email sent to your favorite email address. You can then reply the message from Chatster and set up a reply-to email to continue the correspondence.

PHPEnkoder is a port of the excellent <a href="http://hivelogic.com/enkoder" rel="nofollow ugc">Hivelogic 
Enkoder</a> to PHP and, more specifically, 
to WordPress. It is used to display text in a way that users can see 
and bots can’t.
The encoding system is directly and unabashedly stolen from the 
BSD-licensed source of Hivelogic Enkoder, which works by randomly 
encoding a piece of text and sending to the browser self-evaluating 
Javascript that will generate the original text. This works in two 
ways: first, a bot must first have a fairly complete Javascript 
implementation (in particular, it must have <code>eval</code>); second, the 
decoding process can be made arbitrarily computationally 
intensive. This is similar to the idea of charging computational 
payments to send e-mail, only this is actually implemented.
By default, PHPEnkoder scrambles e-mails in plaintext and in <code>mailto:</code> 
links. It additionally provides a shortcode for manual scrambling, 
used like so: <code>[enkode text="shown to non-JS browsers"]this will be 
scrambled[/enkode]</code>.

PHPEnkoder

Encodes mailto: links and e-mail addresses with JavaScript to stifle webcrawlers.  Automatically turns plaintext e-mails into (enkoded) links.
