Enable a WhatsApp floating button on the website to be able to send a message quickly
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0Adds a floating WhatsApp button to your website so visitors can start a chat with your business in one click. You set the phone number, an optional default message and whether the page URL is included, per website.
This module puts a WhatsApp icon on every page of your website. When a visitor clicks it, WhatsApp opens in a new tab with a chat to the number you configured, optionally pre-filled with a message.
You configure it in Website settings, in the same area as the email marketing settings. There you find a "Use Whatsapp" switch. When you turn it on, you must enter the mobile number including the country prefix, and you can also set a default text to send as the message. A third option, "Track URL", adds the page address the visitor was on to the message, so you know where the conversation started.
If you run several websites, the number, text and tracking option are stored per website, and the settings screen shows a globe icon to remind you of that. Turning the switch off clears the number.
The button only appears on the website when a WhatsApp number is filled in. The settings are saved on the website record and edited through res.config.settings.
