GETTING STARTED

Installing GAUFIRE Cloud Support

To display the chat on your website go to https://app.gaufire.com/account/?tab=installation and copy the embed code, then paste it into your website pages. If you are using WordPress, you can download the GAUFIRE Cloud Support plugin.

Requirements

Your web project must support HTML and PHP, and pages containing the chat must be opened via a web browser.
You cannot display the chat on a HTML page opened directly on a local computer. Use a local server like Xampp instead.
JQuery 1.1+
PHP 7.4+
In your server settings, CURL, ZIP ARCHIVE, must be enabled and working correctly.
Read and write file permissions must be granted for the GAUFIRE uploads, resources/language and apps folders. Support Board must be able to save and read the files in these folders.

Optimal configuration

GAUFIRE is a powerful tool, but its abundance of features can pose a challenge when it comes to quick setup. To streamline the process, we provide a list of the most commonly used features that we advise setting up. By incorporating all these features, you will have access to the most essential and beneficial functionalities.
Activate email notifications from Settings > Notifications. Make sure to activate the following options: Agent email notifications, Sounds admin > Incoming conversations and messages, and Push notifications. For more information on how notifications work, you can click here.
Configure the SMTP server under Settings > Notifications > SMTP. Afterwards, test the email feature by sending a trial email from Settings > Notifications > Send an agent email notifcation. In our Cloud Support service the SMTP is already activated, but you may want to use your own anyway.
Navigate to Settings > Messages and set up the follow-up message and offline message.
Navigate to Settings > Miscellaneous > Performance optimization and turn off any features that are not being used.
In case you are utilizing the chatbot, make sure to check out the optimal configuration here.

Additionally, you will have full control and transparency over your data and expenses.

Having Problems?

If you're having any issues at all, please contact our support team via the chat widget on right of this page. Before contacting us, please make sure that your server has all the requirements listed above.

Chat widget not displaying

The chat may not be showing due to the following reasons.
You cannot see and test the chat as a user if you're logged-into the admin area. To test the chat as a user, please log out of your admin account or from WordPress. Alternatively, you can use another browser window in "private" or "incognito" mode. Additionally, you can force a logout by executing the SBF.reset() function in the browser console.
You may not see the chat because you have disabled it in the settings area. To fix this, visit the settings section and deselect all options related to that: Chat > Manual initialization, Chat > Login initialization, Chat > Hide chat outside of office hours.
You're trying to access the chat from a domain, or subdomain, different from the one of the installation. Details here.
