The document outlines the 4-step process for configuring a LiveHelp server, including setting up domains and agents, generating tracking modules, and signing into the Support Panel desktop or mobile app as an agent to go online. Key steps include adding domains and agents, configuring settings like languages and images, generating modules for websites, and signing into the Support Panel with agent credentials. The overall process provides instructions for fully configuring a LiveHelp customer service system across domains, websites, and mobile/desktop agent panels.

Joomla User Guide

2. Introduction
The process of configuration and implementation of the LiveHelp server is divided into four
stages, which are detailed below.
The approximate time of configuration depends on the number of agents and domains to be
managed, but for an average working environment configuration time must not exceed 5
minutes.
1. Domain configuration
Through the dashboard you can access the domain administration section. The domain
administration section is the starting point where domain configuration starts and where the
chat option is available.
When you enter the domain administration section access is granted to all configured
domains and from there you can perform several actions.
Add domain: Using the option "new" a new domain can be added, to add a new single
domain you only require a domain and enable it for use.

3. Note: The real domain name is required for use and only this one, if an incomplete domain is configured or a
description is used the Live Chat option will not be visible at the time of activating the chat module.
When adding a new domain default settings are created, which includes more than 50
options that can be modified according to the needs of each site.
Delete domain: The process of deleting a domain is very simple and only requires you to
select the domain and click on the delete option.
Note: Remember that deleting a domain also deletes all settings for the domain and associated images.
Edit domain: With a simple click on the domain you can access the Edit form which allows
you to change the domain and its status.
Domain Settings: To access the domain settings it is necessary to click on the "Edit
Settings" button.

Proactive, Fonts, Chat, Email, Images, Languages and Welcome Message, Rebranding and

own server to avoid any inconvenience.

2. Configuring Agents
Through the dashboard you can access the agent administration section. The agent
administration section allows you to add and configure data from the agents of the Live
Chat system.

10. When entering the agent administration section you have access to all configured agents
and from there you can perform several actions.
Add Agent: Through the "new" button you can access the form of adding a new agent, the
information to create this includes agent data as well as the degree of privileges and the
domains that will be assigned to him.
In the details section, you can add basic agent data such as username, password, Name,
Surname, Email, Department, and State.
It is important to note that the Department field is shown in the first form before the login
and from there you determine for which of the agents a chat request is.
The Domain Privilege Field allows this agent to have access to all chat sessions of the
system and not only to the one he belongs to. It is recommended to enable this option for
an administrator agent.
In the Agent picture field you can define a distinctive image for each agent. Keep in mind
that the maximum size of this image is 86px x 181px in gif format.
In the Available Domain section domains to which an agent has access are defined.
Remember that if a domain is not assigned to the agent he will not be able to connect with
Support Panel Console.
Delete agent: The agent removal process is very simple and only requires that the agent is
selected and click on the delete option.
Edit agent: With a simple click on the agent you can access the Edit form which allows you
to change basic data, password and the domain assigned to the agent.

11. Note: Remember that if a new domain is added after you have configured the agents, you must edit
each of the agents and associate them to the new domain.
Connection information: The "Client Info" button gives access to connection information
required on the desktop or Mobile Support Panel.
3. Tracking Module Configuration
There are several aspects to be taken into account in displaying the chat module on the
Website.
If the chat option will be placed in a joomla site it is necessary to generate the chat module.
This module can be used in the installation itself as in any other joomla site you want to
manage from the main installation.
The generation and implementation process is very simple and consists of the following
steps:
1. Generate the module: to generate the chat module simply click on the "Generate Module"
option, the new module will be generated on the server.
2. Download the module: With the generated module on the server, it is necessary to
download it to your computer to then install it in a normal way.
3. Install the module: The tracking module is installed as any other module in joomla.
Just go to the Extensions Install/Uninstall menu, and click Upload Package File and select the
module file on the computer.
4. Configure the module: In the last step it is necessary to activate and configure the new
module. Like any other module it is necessary to define the position you want it to be

12. displayed just as the pages.
In the same way, it is necessary to configure additional module options, such as:
Language: In this option you can define the language you want the chat option to work in.
There are currently 27 available languages.
Tracking: This option allows you to enable or disable tracking.
Status Indicator: This option allows you to enable or disable the chat image.
If you are going to configure the chat option not in a joomla site it is necessary to use the
tracking script option that is a simple JavaScript.
The build process is very simple and consists of the following steps:
1. Enter to generate the script: to enter the script generating option, it is necessary to click
on the "Generate script" option.
2. Set options: in the tracking script configuration form you should set the following
parameters:

13. Language: In this option you can define what language you want the chat option to work in.
There are currently 27 available languages.
Tracking: This option allows you to enable or disable the tracking.
Status Indicator: This option allows you to enable or disable the chat image.
3. Display the script: after generating the JavaScript code you need to copy it and then
insert it into the desired area on the not joomla site.
Note: Remember that with this code you can create a JavaScript widget in Wordpress or a block in drupal easily.
4. Agent Sign in.
The last step after fully configuring the LiveHelp server is to Sign in as an agent using the
Support Panel desktop or the Support Panel Mobile.
The connection process is the same for desktop and mobile version; you simply need to
enter data in the Sign in form for the tracking module status to change to online.
Access information for each agent is available in the agent administration area "client info"
button.
Note: Remember that you can only start one simultaneous session with an access account; it is not possible to
access at the same time with Desktop and Mobile Support Panel with the same account.

14. Support Panel Desktop Sign in Support Panel Mobile Sign in
Note: Remember that you can get the Support Panel Desktop App from our main download area and the Support
Panel Mobile for their respective marke such as Itunes, Google Play and AppWorld.
Also please remember that the only way to go online on the LiveHelp Server is through the Support Panel.
