Click to dial – Direct call from website WordPress plugin | Fast Dial

Converting website traffic into direct phone leads often breaks down when users have to manually copy phone numbers from a browser. Click to dial addresses this friction by embedding direct call triggers and interactive contact bubbles across WordPress sites.

This WordPress plugin provides site owners with direct-call bubble triggers and actionable call buttons linked to target phone numbers. Built on standard WordPress API hooks and Gutenberg block architecture, it streamlines inbound customer contact. It is best suited for service providers, sales teams, and local businesses seeking direct phone conversions. It is not designed for full in-browser WebRTC softphone calls or PBX VoIP trunking.

Core Functional Capabilities

• Single & Multi-Agent Phone Routing: Route calls to a primary telephone line or display a list of dedicated department numbers for visitors to select.
• Timezone-Based Availability Rules: Set specific operational hours per agent or button. The system displays offline indicators outside designated business schedules based on site-defined timezones.
• Flexible Layout Placement: Embed call triggers anywhere across posts, pages, or sidebar widgets using native Gutenberg blocks or shortcodes.
• Device Visibility Controls: Specify whether floating call bubbles display on mobile devices, desktop monitors, or both.
• Automated Popup Engagement: Configure floating call triggers to automatically expand after a designated user dwell time on site.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I configure business hours so the call button disappears when my office is closed?

Yes. You can define specific availability windows and set your local timezone within the settings panel. Outside active hours, the call interface automatically switches to an offline state or hides the trigger based on your preference.

Does this plugin allow visitors to place calls inside the web browser without a phone?

No. The plugin triggers native phone dialers on mobile devices (tel: protocol) or launches registered desktop calling applications like Skype or FaceTime. It does not run WebRTC browser-to-phone audio streams.

Can I place different direct call numbers on specific service pages?

Yes. You can deploy standalone call buttons using custom shortcodes or Gutenberg blocks on individual pages, allowing you to route specific product or service inquiries to dedicated phone lines.
