Connecting site visitors directly to sales or support representatives often breaks down when users encounter overly complex contact forms or third-party live chat subscriptions. The Click to mail plugin resolves this friction by integrating native mailto UI chat bubbles directly into WordPress sites, allowing users to initiate direct email consultations in three simple clicks.
This WordPress plugin adds responsive mailto communication bubbles and customized buttons across your site. Built on lightweight JavaScript, CSS, and HTML with Gutenberg block integration, it enables single or multi-agent email routing with custom subjects, CC/BCC headers, and operating hours. It is ideal for service businesses and consultancies wanting direct email queries, but less suitable for enterprises requiring real-time live chat database logging.

Multi-Agent Email Routing
Set up standalone support agents or deploy a roster of team members. Visitors select their desired contact or department, routing messages to designated inbox addresses with customized CC and BCC parameters.
Pre-filled Mailto Parameters
Pre-populate email templates for your users. Each agent or button can trigger tailored default subject lines and body text to standardize inbound inquiries across your website.
Timezone & Availability Scheduling
Define operational schedules for individual agents or site-wide triggers. The plugin automatically manages timezones to display offline indicators when personnel are outside active hours.

Visual Customization & Animations
Select from floating chat bubble animations, adjustable button labels, and custom color presets. The core assets rely on vanilla script and CSS rules for minimal load times.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I set distinct default subject lines for different team members?
Yes, each agent configured within the plugin can carry unique email parameters. You can define separate target addresses, CC/BCC recipients, pre-filled subjects, and template body text for every individual agent.
Does this plugin rely on external chat servers or monthly API fees?
No, Click to mail operates locally through native system email triggers and standard HTML mailto protocols. It does not route traffic through third-party servers or require recurring SaaS subscriptions.
Is coding required to insert email buttons into page content?
No coding experience is required. You can add floating bubbles or inline mail buttons using built-in Gutenberg blocks or the styling options provided inside the WordPress admin panel.
