Plans: Every plan, the free one included.
The Harkbell AI Front Desk plugin loads the same talk button as the website snippet, without opening a theme file. You paste one key and choose which pages show it. The full feature list is on the WordPress integration page.
- In Harkbell, publish your agent, then open Agent and the Widget tab.
- Under Put it on your site, choose WordPress plugin and press Download the plugin. The same download is on the WordPress integration page.
- In WordPress, open Plugins › Add New Plugin, press Upload Plugin, choose the zip, install it and activate it.
- Back in Harkbell, press Copy key under WordPress plugin key.
- In WordPress open Settings › Harkbell, paste the key and save. The page checks it with Harkbell straight away and tells you whether your site is accepted.
- Choose where the button shows: every page, Only the pages ticked below, or Every page except the ones ticked below.
If the button does not appear
- Check Allowed domains under Agent › Widget in Harkbell. If the list is not empty it must include your site's domain. Add it, press Save widget, press Republish now, then press Check connection in WordPress.
- Remove any older copy of the Harkbell snippet from your theme or a header-and-footer plugin. Two copies put two buttons on the page.
- Exclude the file harkbell-widget.js from speed and caching plugins that delay, combine or minify JavaScript.
- If visitors are told the microphone is blocked, your host or a security plugin may be sending a header that blocks it on every page; ask them to allow microphone access for your own site.
Use the plugin or the snippet, not both
Install one or the other. Nothing loads, and nothing is sent to Harkbell from your site, until a key has been saved in the plugin.
What WordPress version do I need?
WordPress 6.3 or later on PHP 7.4 or later, on a site where you can install plugins. On WordPress.com that means a plan that allows plugins.
Can I pass the whole embed code instead of the key?
Yes. If you paste the full embed code the plugin keeps only the key and throws the rest away, so no pasted code is stored in your site.
Does it work with other builders?
The plugin is for WordPress only. For Wix, Squarespace and similar, use the iframe or link button; see add the talk button to your website.
