= | = Tidio chat = | ||
[https://www.tidio.com Tidio.com] is a nice chat service provider that offers 7 days of free premium, after which a downgrade to the free-tier with some crippling from the software's full potential. | |||
It may be installed on many platforms. I installed it for the [https://stop-synthetic-filth.org/wp/ SSF! Wordpress]. | |||
Once the chat is installed, it can be included on unlimited number of pages with a Javascript script inserted in the <nowiki><body> ... </body></nowiki> according to the documentation, but seems to work just fine also in the <nowiki><head> ... </head></nowiki>, which was actually what they suggested previously. | |||
To enable a Tidio chat on a Mediawiki, one way is to install, load and configure [[mw:Extension:HeadScript]] | |||
'''Instructions''' | |||
* Install [[mw:Extension:HeadScript]] | |||
* Add <code>wfLoadExtension( 'HeadScript' );</code> to LocalSettings.php | |||
* You can find the code in the 'Tidio Panel' -> 'Settings' -> Installation -> '' 'If you still want to access your JavaScript code or reinstall the chat - click here' '' -> 'Javascript'. Copy this code. | |||
* Add the code to load the script to <code>LocalSettings.php</code> as instructed in the extension's documentation. | |||
