About Dialogoo Chat
From the official readme · v1.3.7Description
Dialogoo is a hosted video chat and webcam chat platform for websites: multi-user chat rooms, multi-webcam video, private messaging, and moderation tools, without you having to host or maintain any video chat software yourself.
This plugin embeds the Dialogoo video chat / webcam chat room you’ve already configured in your Dialogoo webmaster panel directly into any WordPress page or post, using a simple shortcode — or as a floating chat bubble that follows visitors around your whole site.
Features
- Live video chat and webcam chat rooms — multi-user, with private messaging and moderation, no chat server to host or maintain yourself
[dialogoo_chat]shortcode — embed the video/webcam chat inline, anywhere a shortcode can go (post, page, widget area, or a template viado_shortcode())- One-click “Create a page with the chat” button — get a dedicated, published video chat page without writing or editing anything yourself
- Full screen mode for any page or post — the webcam chat fills the browser window with no site header, footer, menu, or sidebar
- Optional floating chat bubble, sitewide, no shortcode required
- Configurable default width/height, overridable per shortcode instance
- One-click copy buttons for every shortcode example on the settings screen
- Built-in getting-started guide and account sign-up links, right on the settings screen
- Small, dependency-free codebase — no build step, no bundled libraries
You’ll need a Dialogoo account and a Site Key (found under My chat → Integration in your Dialogoo webmaster panel) to use this plugin. Sign up at dialogoo.com if you don’t have one yet — the settings screen also links there directly. Embedding must also be turned on for your video/webcam chat from that same panel page.
External services
This plugin embeds content and functionality hosted by Dialogoo (dialogoo.com), a third-party live chat service:
- The
[dialogoo_chat]shortcode loadshttps://dialogoo.com/chatinside an<iframe>. - The optional floating chat bubble loads a script from
https://dialogoo.com/assets/js/embed.js, which itself opens ahttps://dialogoo.com/chatiframe when a visitor clicks it.
When a visitor’s browser loads either of these, it connects directly to dialogoo.com — the same as visiting any page that embeds third-party content — which involves standard connection metadata (e.g. IP address, user agent) reaching Dialogoo’s servers so the chat can be shown. This plugin itself does not separately collect, transmit, or store any visitor data; it only outputs the <iframe>/<script> tag described above, and only once you’ve configured a Site Key.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a real video chat / webcam chat plugin, or just a contact widget?
It’s a real, live video chat and webcam chat room — multi-user, with private messaging, multiple webcams per room, and moderation tools — not a single-operator support widget. The chat itself runs on Dialogoo’s hosted platform; this plugin just embeds the video/webcam chat room you’ve configured there into your WordPress site.
Where do I find my Site Key?
Log into your Dialogoo account, open My chat → Integration (/chatadmin/developer), and copy the Site Key shown there.
The shortcode shows a “no Site Key configured” notice on my page
That notice is only ever shown to a logged-in administrator, never to your visitors — it’s a reminder to finish setup at Settings → Dialogoo Chat. A visitor sees nothing at all until a Site Key is configured.
Can I embed more than one chat, or override the size on one page?
Yes — pass site, width and/or height directly to the shortcode to override the defaults for that one instance: [dialogoo_chat site="abcd1234" width="100%" height="800px"]
Can I send visitors straight into one specific room?
Yes — add room="room-slug" (find a room’s slug in your Dialogoo webmaster panel under Rooms) to land visitors directly in that room instead of your chat’s default: [dialogoo_chat room="support"] An unknown or misspelled slug is silently ignored, falling back to your chat’s normal default room.
Does the shortcode work with page builders and the block editor?
Yes — anywhere you can insert a WordPress shortcode (Gutenberg’s Shortcode block, Classic Editor, most page builders’ shortcode widgets) will render it.
Does the floating bubble show up in wp-admin too?
No — it only prints on front-end pages.
Where do I sign up for a Dialogoo account?
https://dialogoo.com/register — free, no credit card required. The settings screen links there too whenever no Site Key is configured yet.
Can the plugin create a page for me?
Yes — Settings → Dialogoo Chat has a “Create a page with the chat” button that publishes a new page containing just [dialogoo_chat], so you don’t have to create or edit one yourself. Once created, the same section shows View/Edit links for that page instead.
Can I show the chat completely full screen, with no site header or footer?
Yes — open any page or post in the editor and check Full screen (no theme header/footer) in the “Dialogoo Chat” box in the sidebar. That page then fills the whole browser window with no site header, footer, menu, or sidebar — just the chat. “Create a page with the chat” also has this as a checkbox, checked by default, so a page it creates is full screen from the start.
Changelog
Adds full screen mode (no site header/footer) for any page or post, plus a full screen checkbox on "Create a page with the chat".
1.3.7
- Reverted Text Domain and every translation string back to
dialogoo-chat-live-video-webcam-chat— WordPress.org’s automated review confirmed the plugin’s assigned slug is stilldialogoo-chat-live-video-webcam-chat, notdialogoo-chat, so the 1.3.6 revert was premature. This will change again if/when a slug change todialogoo-chatis confirmed by the Plugin Review Team.
1.3.6
- Reverted Text Domain and every translation string to
dialogoo-chat, per plugin review feedback — the requested permalink isdialogoo-chat. - Fixed: the floating chat bubble’s Site Key now reaches its enqueued script via
wp_add_inline_script()(a plain global variable, read as a fallback by the remote script) instead of a custom attribute on the<script>tag, so no<script>markup is ever hand-built in PHP. - Fixed: full screen mode’s CSS is now added via
wp_register_style()+wp_add_inline_style()(WordPress core’s own documented pattern for inline-only styles) instead of a hand-printed<style>tag in the template. - Added
proxymisto Contributors.
1.3.5
- Fixed: Text Domain and every translation string now use
dialogoo-chat-live-video-webcam-chat, matching the slug WordPress.org assigned to this plugin on its first submission (assigned once and not affected by later title changes — see 1.3.4).
1.3.4
- Reverted the plugin title to “Dialogoo Chat” (from a longer keyword-rich variant) for a cleaner display name. Discoverability keywords stay in the Tags and description instead.
1.3.3
- Fixed: Plugin URI and Author URI must be different (flagged by WordPress.org on submission). Plugin URI now points to the integration guide (https://dialogoo.com/integration); Author URI now points to https://proxymis.com.
1.3.2
- Fixed: the floating chat bubble’s script is now properly registered via
wp_enqueue_script()instead of being printed directly (found by the official Plugin Check tool ahead of WordPress.org submission). - Removed the now-unnecessary
load_plugin_textdomain()call and Domain Path header — WordPress.org automatically loads translations for hosted plugins. - Minor code-standards cleanup (variable naming in uninstall.php).
