This plugin adds two full configurable buttons on the website that allows direct dialing via mobile phone or WhatsApp with a simple click.

The buttons are fully configurable and offer the possibility to add a custom text.
You can change the colors, text size, edges and position of the buttons.

How to configure?

Fill in the phone numbers “Phone number to call” and “WhatsApp number to call” and the texts associated with them “Phone number (or text) to display” or “WhatsApp number (or text) to display”
The associated texts will only appear in the box if you fill them in with their icons.
It is recommended for phone numbers to contain the country code (prefix) and to be in a callable format (for example “+41987654321”). However, the associated texts can contain any text or any format of telephone numbers (for example “Call Us” or “0987.654.321”)

Choose the colors

If you do not want a specific color and prefere the element to be transparent, then delete the color from the corresponding field.

Set the positioning

The module will automatically add the tracking script and you will be able to find the events in Google Analytics by clicking Behavior> Events> Overview
