My testing so far:
Doesn't work on localhost, not sure if it's my setup or just how the API works. No big deal.
I installed the plugin on a live test domain. Everything runs smoothly. I got the registration message after 5 minutes or so. The widget doesn't seem to work with the Thematic theme on Wordpress. Some sort of Javascript error I can't figure out:
Something to do with the openContact() function, apparently.
Anyways I switched the theme to Twenty Fourteen, and everything looked better. I recieved the message fine, however I also got <br /> tags in my message.
Suggestions:
Perhaps have something similar to Contact Form 7, where the user gets a "Thank you, message has been sent" message, or something like that, and the form clears itself.
Also, not an important suggestion, but it might be nice to see some styling options in the widget section, like a "Width" selector, or something like that. Perhaps it could even be responsive in the future. I'm just spitballing here.
Overall, great job dude. I can see a lot of hard work has gone into this.
Also, I think it might be worth mentioning, am I correct in saying that if you link your whatsapp number to this widget, it unlinks your phone from that Whatsapp? I can't tell the plugin to send messages using the same number that will be receiving them. Right?

Thank you for your thorough testing and posting the results. I will look into the theme issue.
The <br /> tag issue has been sorted out. Thanks
This is the plan. The reason it is like it is now, is so that members who test the plugin can see if everything reaches them. Yes, we can look into a "width selector" later on
Yes, you are correct. That is why I suggest that one uses a separate sim. The reason that your number has been unlinked from the phone, is because whatsapp allows one number per one device only.
Thanks again
Cheers

Great, thanks for the response! I'll let you know of any more issues as I come across them.
Might I suggest a Dropbox folder, or something similar, so we can all keep up to date as you make the changes?

Hey mate, I've send you a PM. Please post your findings in this thread!
i am not able to register. any particular step am i missing?
edit
sorry was too eager to test and i didnt read the instructions.
Works beautifully. got the test message on my whatsapp number. only thing that is confusing is running it for the first time. like when we install the plugin the config file must be autogenerated . and adding the country numbers (i tried 5 times using +91 as is the regualr practice for indian numbers.) so that we can select them from the list and directly add them .
Thumbs up from me.
Good Job:clap2:
