 * Good morning, I had a query about the floating button, it works as support, this
   button sometimes works by redirecting me to WhatsApp… but sometimes the button
   stops working and it sends me to the WhatsApp installation page, how could I 
   fix that problem, I’m using the woodmart theme.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Ffloating-chat-button%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@alphavarez](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alphavarez/)
 * Thanks for using the plugin and really sorry for the issue.
    I’m not really sure
   how this could happen. Perhaps you can give me the links of where the floating
   button works and where it doesn’t, so I can further inspect the issue.
 * Thank you in advance.

 * Hi.
 * Checked several pages of your site on my end, and every time I clicked the floating
   button, it’s working perfectly.
    Can you give me which link of your web page 
   did this [https://snipboard.io/OavP3J.jpg](https://snipboard.io/OavP3J.jpg) issue
   occurred? It’d help to inspect the issue further.
 * Thank you in advance.

 * Maybe you could try on mobile version, because this screenshot was taken by my
   phone, I tried to clear the cookies checking again I got the same results.

 * Hi.
 * You didn’t give me the link other than home page, so in your case, I assume that
   this issue [https://snipboard.io/OavP3J.jpg](https://snipboard.io/OavP3J.jpg)
   happened on home page?
    It’s working perfectly fine on my end, both on desktop
   and mobile (Android and iOS) devices.
 * The plugin itself uses dynamic WhatsApp base URLs which will automatically detect
   the device used (using WordPress’s default wp_is_mobile function).
    E.g., if 
   a site opened in a PC web browser, the WhatsApp base URL will be web.whatsapp.
   com, and on mobile, the base URL will be api.whatsapp.com. Perhaps in your case,
   when you open your site on a mobile device, the WhatsApp base URL is still web.
   whatsapp.com, that’s why you’re having that issue.
 * Perhaps I will add an option when users can enforce one WhatsApp base URL regardless
   of what device used.
 * Meanwhile, if you use a caching plugin, please ensure that the configuration 
   is working fine on mobile device. Some caching plugin configurations might prevent
   the wp_is_mobile to work properly.
 * Hope it answers your question.
    Thank you.

 * Ok, thanks for the help, I was checking and the URL when I click on the floating
   buttom the correct link appears, but when It’s trying to go to thecorrect URL
   It changes to whatsapp.com instead the URL redirection.
    the other link of the
   store in mobile is [this](http://supermascotopia.com/tienda)
