About this plugin

AskAnyDocs Chatbot connects an existing AskAnyDocs bot to a WordPress website. Configure the Bot ID once, and the plugin loads the chatbot from app.askanydocs.com on public pages.

Features:

  • No theme edits required.
  • Enable or disable the widget from WordPress settings.
  • Optionally passes the signed-in WordPress user’s ID, display name, and email to AskAnyDocs.
  • Provides a filter for developers who need page-level visibility rules.

You need an AskAnyDocs account and an active bot. The chatbot itself, conversations, and knowledge sources are managed by the AskAnyDocs service. AskAnyDocs offers free and paid plans.

External service

This plugin relies on AskAnyDocs, an external software-as-a-service platform, to provide the chatbot. An AskAnyDocs account and bot are required.

When an administrator enables the widget and enters a Bot ID, public pages load the widget JavaScript from https://app.askanydocs.com. Loading the widget sends a normal web request to AskAnyDocs. When a visitor uses the chatbot, the plugin and widget send the visitor’s chat messages and technical metadata needed to operate the service. This metadata may include the current page URL, referrer, browser language, platform, time zone, screen size, and viewport size. The widget uses browser local storage to preserve conversation and display state.

The plugin does not send the signed-in WordPress user’s profile by default. If an administrator explicitly enables Signed-in user sharing, the WordPress user ID, display name, and email address are also sent to AskAnyDocs.

The data is sent to AskAnyDocs only to load and operate the configured chatbot, maintain its conversation state, provide answers, and support features configured by the AskAnyDocs account owner. Use of the service is governed by the AskAnyDocs Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
