Test on a copy, link to the real thing
Turn on developer mode on a development or staging copy. The chatbot reads that copy, so you can try changes safely, but the links in its answers point at your live site. If the copy sits behind a password, give the plugin the user name and password so it can read it.

Frequently asked questions
What do I need to run the GoChatterBot plugin?
A WordPress site running WordPress 6.0 or later and PHP 7.4 or later, and a free GoChatterBot account for your API key.
Where do I get the plugin?
Create a free account, then download the plugin from your dashboard and upload it in WordPress under Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin. The installation guide walks through each step.
Does it work with my theme and page builder?
The chat button floats above your pages, so it works with any theme. To place the chat inside a page, use the [gochatterbot embed] shortcode, which works anywhere shortcodes do.
How do updates work?
New versions appear on your WordPress Plugins screen like any other plugin. Each update is signed, and the plugin checks the signature before installing it.
Can I use it on more than one website?
Each API key is tied to one website address. Starter and Growth cover 1 website and Pro covers 5, each with its own key from your dashboard.
Can I test on a staging site first?
Yes. Turn on developer mode in the Connection settings on the staging copy. The chatbot reads that copy but links to your live site in its answers, and it can use a password if the copy is protected.
