Online Scheduling

Business hours, timezone, and offline visitor experience.

Dashboard: Widget Settings → Online schedule

Set weekly business hours so visitors know when your team is online. Outside those hours the widget switches to offline mode with a custom message or contact form.

Business hours

1

Set your timezone

Configure the site timezone in Widget Settings. All schedule times use this timezone.

2

Define open hours per day

For each day of the week, set open/close times or mark the day as closed.

3

Customize offline message

Under Messages, set the away message visitors see outside business hours.

Visitor experience

During business hours

Widget shows as online. Visitors can start a live chat and agents receive real-time notifications.

Outside business hours

Widget shows offline status. Visitors can leave a message via the offline form or see your custom away text.

API

Schedule is managed via PUT /api/agent/widget-settings/schedule. Timezone is updated through PATCH /api/agent/widget-settings.
