5. Advance Button

The Advance Button layout offers a more professional look compared to the Simple Button. It allows you to display extra details like an agent photo, name, designation, and online/offline status along with the button itself.

1. Layout Selector – Advance Button: Choose the Advance Button layout from the Floating Chat Layout options. This layout is best for businesses that want to show more context about their support team or representative.
2. WhatsApp Type: Select how users connect:
   • Number → Users send direct messages to your WhatsApp number.
   • Group → Users join your WhatsApp group using an invite link.
3. WhatsApp Number / Group Link:
   • If Number is selected → Enter your WhatsApp number in international format.
     Example: +880234563246274
   • If Group is selected → Enter your WhatsApp group invite link.

👉 A Test link appears below so you can confirm that it works correctly.

4. Pre-filled Message: A default message automatically inserted into the WhatsApp chat box when users click the button.
   • Saves time for users and helps guide conversations.
   • Can include variables for personalization (explained in Variables section).
   • Example:
     Hello! I have a question about {currentTitle}.
5. Timezone: Choose your timezone to sync the availability schedule properly, ensuring your button only shows during your working hours.
6. Availability: Define when the Advance Button is online:
   • Pick start and end times for each day (24-hour format).
   • Use 00:00 → 00:00 if you want to disable availability for a full day.
