Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Plugchat lets you add a Meta (Facebook) Messenger chat widget to your WordPress site so visitors can message you directly.

0 — Rebuilt for Meta’s New Chat Plugin

Meta has retired the old Customer Chat Plugin SDK. 0 is rebuilt around Meta’s current system: you copy the embed code from Meta Business Suite and paste it into the plugin settings. That’s it — no API keys, no app IDs, no SDK configuration.

How it works

  • Get your Chat Plugin code from Meta Business Suite.
  • Paste it into Plugchat settings.
  • Choose left or right position.
  • Save. Your Messenger chat widget is live.

Features

  • Simple embed code setup — paste and save.
  • Position control — left or right side of the screen.
  • Zero external scripts loaded by the plugin — Meta’s embed code handles everything.
  • Fully compatible with WordPress 6.9.
  • Clean uninstall — all settings removed when you delete the plugin.
  • Existing users with legacy settings are not affected — old configuration is preserved and accessible.

Important Note

Meta (Facebook) deprecated the legacy Customer Chat Plugin SDK. The old method (entering a Page ID) no longer works for new setups because Meta shut down the SDK endpoint. This is a Meta platform decision and is outside this plugin’s control.

0 solves this by using Meta’s current embed code system. If you were using the old version, your settings are preserved and you can reference them while migrating.
