We were able to easily customize it to suit our specific needs and Dan has provided excellent support. Can't ask for more than that!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can customer/user create a ticket without logging in?

Yes, you can use any form you'd like and forward the emails to your Help Scout account, e.g. forwarding address.

How does it work?

Shortcodes, Help Scout JSON API and AJAX.

All Help Scout Data is pulled from their JSON API in the background. There's no delayed page load while your server runs the request, instead the templates are built in the background and appended to the page when complete.

All shortcode views are easy customizable through template that can be copied to your theme. Just like Sprout Invoices.

If you'd like to know more checkout the documentation.
