Website Guy Order Messaging for WooCommerce
Order Messaging for WooCommerce by Website Guy gives your customers a simple way to contact you about a specific order, while keeping every conversation organised inside WooCommerce.
Customers can start a conversation directly from My Account → Orders, while staff reply from the WooCommerce order screen. Every message stays attached to the order, making it easy to track delivery questions, order changes and post-purchase support.
Instead of juggling emails, support tickets and phone calls, all communication remains linked to the order it relates to. Notification emails simply alert customers that there’s a new message and direct them back to their account to continue the conversation, ensuring everything stays organised in one place.
This plugin is ideal for stores that want a lightweight alternative to a full helpdesk for order-related customer support. It solves a common problem without introducing another platform for your staff or customers to learn.
Built from real-world experience managing a busy retail and ecommerce operation, this plugin focuses on solving genuine day-to-day pain points with a clean, familiar WooCommerce experience.
