Storebird AI Chat for WooCommerce

Endringslogg

1.5.6 – June 2026

• Fix: Trash icon now actually deletes the conversation — messages, agent, lead capture state and the saved session ID are all wiped and the widget returns to the welcome screen.
• Improvement: Removed the back arrow in the chat header. Once you’re in conversation you stay there — exit is the X, reset is the trash. Less clutter, clearer mental model.

1.5.5 – June 2026

• Fix: The «share your details» lead capture form no longer pops up immediately after the bot’s first reply. It now waits for at least two visitor turns or an explicit handoff so the conversation can warm up first.
• Fix: Chat header trash and close buttons are now the same size, aligned and balanced on the right of the header.
• Improvement: Redesigned proactive bubble — it now looks like a speech bubble coming directly from the chat trigger (rounded card with a tail pointing down to the button) rather than a separate floating box. The avatar/name row was dropped to keep the message punchy.

1.5.4 – June 2026

• Fix: Markdown rendering of AI replies — now handles italics, headings, numbered lists, fenced code blocks, and strips internal [PRODUCT:…] markers that the bot occasionally leaks. Bold, links, bullet lists and inline code already worked.
• Improvement: Tighter spacing around in-message headings, lists and code blocks so streaming responses look like a polished chat reply, not a wall of plain text.

1.5.3 – June 2026

• Fix: Brand logo is now visible in the chat header (previously only on the welcome screen). During agent handoff the logo swaps for the agent avatar.
• Fix: Mobile responsiveness overhaul — full-screen panel honours iOS safe-area insets at top and bottom, composer buttons grow to 40px tap targets on phones, chat header is single-line with truncated brand name, and message bubbles use 94% width on small screens.
• Fix: Layout cleanup of the chat header — back arrow, brand mark, brand name + status, and the close/end-chat actions are now in a stable horizontal layout that never overflows.

1.5.2 – June 2026

• Fix: Removed every hardcoded quick action from the welcome screen. The chat widget is unique to each store, so default actions are no longer shipped at all. Stores that want quick action cards configure them via the Storebird dashboard; until then, the widget shows only the greeting and the input field — no risk of advertising features the store doesn’t actually offer.

1.5.1 – June 2026

• Fix: Removed the hardcoded «10% off + early access» quick action from the welcome screen. Default actions are now strictly store-agnostic: Discover products, Track my order, Talk to a human. Stores that want to advertise a discount or signup must configure it via their Storebird dashboard (coming soon) — no more wrong promises on the widget.
• Fix: Quick action labels respect the visitor language when the backend doesn’t override them.

1.5.0 – June 2026

• Major: Brand-new React-based chat widget — redesigned UI with quick action cards on a welcome screen, team avatars, animated proactive greeting bubble, native lead capture form, agent takeover header, end-chat flow, and a horizontal product carousel.
• Major: Multi-language UI out of the box (English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish) with WPML and Polylang detection on the host site.
• New: Notification chime when a bot or agent reply arrives while the widget is closed, plus a pulsing unread indicator on the trigger button.
• New: Shadow DOM isolation so host-site CSS can never leak into the widget (or vice versa).
• Note: Sites that need to roll back temporarily can set the storebird_widget_version option to 2, or add add_filter('storebird_widget_version', fn() => '2'); in a snippet.

1.4.0 – June 2026

• Compatibility: Tested and verified against WordPress 7.0.

1.3.9 – May 2026

• Fix: Product attribute specifications (capacity, dimensions, material, etc.) now sync with their readable values instead of internal WooCommerce IDs, so the AI answers specification questions accurately.
