Core Plugin Tech

CoreTech Contact Buttons, Chat, Calls & Tracking helps site owners add a clear floating contact path without a heavy setup process.
Use it to show:
<ul>
<li>A WhatsApp button with a configurable number and prefilled message.</li>
<li>A call button with a configurable phone number.</li>
<li>A display mode to show WhatsApp only, call only, or both buttons.</li>
<li>Sequential rich tooltips for WhatsApp and call buttons.</li>
<li>Tooltip customization for text color, background color, font size, first tooltip, initial delay, show time, transition gap, and repeat pause.</li>
<li>Basic desktop/mobile visibility controls.</li>
<li>Left or right bottom placement.</li>
<li>Optional anonymous local click totals for WhatsApp and call clicks, with simple dashboard date filters.</li>
<li>Optional separate WhatsApp and call GA4/GTM event output for sites already using Google Analytics or Google Tag Manager.</li>
<li>Basic CTA tooltip styling and timing controls.</li>
</ul>
This WordPress.org build is fully functional on its own. It does not require a license key, trial, remote activation, or paid unlock.
Local click totals are stored only as anonymous aggregate WhatsApp and call counts in the WordPress database, including daily aggregate buckets for dashboard filters. The plugin does not store visitor identity, IP addresses, page URLs, message text, or wp-admin activity.
<h3>External services</h3>
<h4>WhatsApp</h4>
When a visitor clicks the WhatsApp button, the visitor is sent to a WhatsApp URL so they can start a chat. The plugin does not send data to WhatsApp automatically in the background. The visitor’s browser or device contacts WhatsApp only after the visitor clicks the WhatsApp button.
Data sent when clicked: the configured WhatsApp number and optional prefilled message in the WhatsApp URL.
Service provider: WhatsApp LLC / Meta Platforms.
Terms of Service: https://www.whatsapp.com/legal/terms-of-service 
Privacy Policy: https://www.whatsapp.com/legal/privacy-policy
<h4>Google Analytics / Google Tag Manager</h4>
The plugin does not load Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, or Google API scripts. It does not include Measurement Protocol, OAuth, server-side conversion uploads, or wp-admin analytics tracking.
If the site owner already uses Google Analytics or Google Tag Manager, they may optionally enable frontend click events for WhatsApp and call buttons. In that case, the plugin sends one configured browser-side event name through the existing <code>gtag()</code> function when available, otherwise as one <code>dataLayer</code> event for GTM-only installs.
Data made available when enabled: separate WhatsApp/call event names, button type, button label, plugin source, and clicked link URL.

<h3>What you get with Joinchat</h3>
A complete WhatsApp conversion toolkit for WordPress, designed to capture more leads and close more sales.
<ul>
<li>Floating WhatsApp button that opens the WhatsApp app on mobile, and on desktop launches WhatsApp Desktop or WhatsApp Web and shows a scannable QR code.</li>
<li>Eye-catching CTAs to greet visitors, present offers and start the chat with the right message.</li>
<li>Dynamic start messages so every conversation arrives with full context (the page, the product, the price, the discount…).</li>
<li>WooCommerce integration, with a contact button next to “Add to cart” and shop-specific CTAs.</li>
<li>Analytics built in — 🆕 — Clicks counter in your WordPress dashboard. Events for Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel, plus Google Ads conversions.</li>

<li>Customizable site-wide or at the page, product, category, etc. level.</li>
</ul>
<h3>🛡️ Say goodbye to the fear of WhatsApp bans</h3>
Many companies lose their WhatsApp Business number for contacting customers first without consent. Joinchat flips the model: the visitor writes first, so every conversation starts aligned with WhatsApp’s official policies.
The result: your business number protected and your customers reaching out when they need to, not the other way around.
With Joinchat, you can unlock the full potential of WhatsApp’s “click to chat” feature.
<h3>Take Joinchat further with Premium and AI</h3>
Joinchat Free is just the start. Premium and AI unlock its full conversion potential.
<ul>
<li>💬 Add more support channels — extend beyond WhatsApp with Telegram, Facebook Messenger, phone calls and more, all from the same widget.</li>
<li>🕒 Multi-agent with custom schedules — assign chats to the right person at the right time. Each agent works their own hours and only takes chats when available, and you can set an alternative CTA when no agents are online.</li>
<li>🔁 Add a Chat Funnel — guided conversational flows that qualify and capture leads automatically with higher conversion than a form, 24/7, even when no one is at the desk.</li>
<li>✨ Add an AI agent — trained on your FAQs and website content. Answers visitors instantly, anytime, with the tone and knowledge you define.</li>
