Upload the GoBolt plugin in WordPress and activate it, and your store registers itself with GoBolt.
Get the plugin
GoBolt is not in the WordPress plugin directory, so searching Plugins → Add New Plugin will not find it. Email [email protected] with your store address and we send you the plugin zip. You can also choose WooCommerce at gobolt.app/get-started. That button writes to us too.
Check the requirements
You need WordPress 6.5 or newer, PHP 8.0 or newer, and WooCommerce 9.4 or newer. WooCommerce must be installed and active, or WordPress will not let you activate GoBolt. If WooCommerce is older than 9.4, GoBolt does not load, and a notice at the top of your WordPress admin tells you to update it.
Install and activate
In WordPress, go to Plugins → Add New Plugin and select Upload Plugin.
Choose the zip and select Install Now.
Select Activate Plugin. The plugin is called GoBolt Chat App.
What happens next
The first time WordPress admin loads after you activate, your store registers itself with GoBolt. There is no API key to paste. A GoBolt item appears in the WordPress menu, with Dashboard, Chats, Knowledge, Widget, Audio highlights, Store control, Account and Get help under it.
Open it. A short welcome plays, and then setup asks you to open your storefront once so GoBolt can match your colors and logo.
Select Open storefront, then come back and select Continue. Four setup steps follow: Storefront chat, Audio highlights, Messages and Briefing. See Set up GoBolt in four steps.
The plugin shows the chat itself, so there is no theme editor step and no code to paste. New installs start with the chat off until you turn it on in setup.
If your host does not have PHP cURL with HTTPS support, GoBolt shows a warning in your WordPress admin and turns off product image import only. Chat, catalog and order tools keep working.
