Our Support Team can help you handle WordPress-specific questions directly. 💖 Visit the Help Center External services This is the official Elfsight plugin. It connects your WordPress site to Elfsight, a third-party SaaS where your AI Chatbot is created, trained and managed. The plugin itself only stores the widget ID you enter; all chatbot functionality is provided by the Elfsight service.

• When you save a widget ID, the plugin contacts Elfsight to confirm the widget exists and to detect how it should be placed on your site. Only the widget ID is sent — no personal or site data.
• On the front end, the chatbot is rendered by Elfsight's widget platform, loaded from the Elfsight CDN.
