Chat widget redesign with Shopify Markets support

We locked our frontend engineer in the basement until he fixed the buggy chat widget. (Just kidding. Mostly.)

  • **Shopify Markets language switching:**Widget language automatically matches your Markets setting
  • **Smoother interactions & looks:**The widget now feels smooth with polished animations and faster load times
  • Custom chat icons: Choose from 20 icons or upload your own

The chat icon picker, with a grid of preset speech-bubble icons and a custom SVG upload above them

  • Chat-to-email handoff: If customers leave the chat, responses also go to their email. Select which inbox handles this in chat settings
  • **Accept chats setting:**Prevent AI agent from assigning tickets to you when you don’t want them

The agent status menu set to Offline, with the “Accept chats from” list of inboxes open beside it

  • New inbox settings: Better controls for managing chat behavior
  • **Bonus: Steam-style agent status indicator:**Admins and managers get a sidebar widget showing active agents. (Gamers might recognise the inspiration here).

The agent status widget in the sidebar, counting who is online, busy, and offline

Only unpolished thing remaining is that buggy “Track order” section which will be part of a bigger project of adding more self-serve features to the app.

Help needed

We plan to add a lot of self-serve features into Commslayer, potentially even including a returns solution. Send us an email to karri@commslayer.com if you are using an existing returns app and want to help us out.
