support agents, go to the manage agents and click
on “Add New”, then enter all the required agent
information.
NOTE : If you don’t know how the “Agent Status Indicator” works we strongly suggest to set the status type
with the default value “domain”.
NOTE : Remember you always need to set at least one domain ON in the available domains list or the
agent can’t sign in on the Support Panel Desktop or Mobile.

If the domain name is the same that you server you
can install by clicking in the option "configure
widget"

javascript code through the option below the modules.
After installing the widget you can setup the this like
any other widget on wordpress.
