 * Hi [@bhvreddy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bhvreddy/) ,
 * Actually the issue still there. I just changed the URL to [https://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone=6590611715](https://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone=6590611715)
   instead of wa.me

 * Thank you so much for your message.
   It seems that the issue is related to the
   wa.me links used by WhatsApp. This appears to be a temporary issue on WhatsApp’s
   side, and we expect it to be resolved soon.
 * As a workaround, we can switch to using Web WhatsApp links, which are currently
   working fine.
 * If the wa.me issue persists, we’re ready to update the plugin to use api.whatsapp.
   com instead and release a new version to ensure everything continues to work 
   perfectly across all websites.
 * Once again, thank you for reporting this issue.
   Have a wonderful day!
