KB Support utilises template files to display content on the front end of your website. These files can be customised as described below.
You can use the KB Support REST API to retrieve information regarding Tickets, Customers and Agents via 3rd party applications. You can also use the REST API to remotely create content such as tickets and replies.
A participant is someone who contributes towards a ticket on behalf of the customer. KB Support allows for an unlimited number of individuals to participate on a single ticket, and in keeping with our unique functionality of enabling guest customers to create and manage tickets, participants can also be guests as well as existing customers.
When the KBS Email Support extension connects to your mailbox, it does so using the standard IMAP flags. These include the mailbox server host name, the protocol to use (IMAP/POP3), the port number and the transport security.
However, from time to time, you may need to send additional flags in order to obtain a successful connection. This article describes how.
KB Support has a number of built-in messages that are displayed to customers during various activities taking place on the front end of your website – for example, when a ticket is submitted. We’ll refer to these messages as notices.
These front end notices can be changed if you want to do so with a small amount of code by hooking into the kbs_get_notices
filter.
By default, only support workers with the Support Manager role are able to view customer details as well as add and edit customers, however, it is very easy to allow agents to add and edit customers if you need them need to do so.
The default configuration of KB Support following installation does not enable file uploads via the customer submission form and reply forms. To add a file upload field to your ticket submission form you need to enable file uploads within settings.
WordPress locks posts whenever they are accessed in order to prevent multiple users from accessing and modifying the post at the same time.
This can be a hindrance to a support organisation and therefore, sometimes, it is necessary to enable multiple people to access and work on a ticket at the same time.
The default configuration of KB Support enables you to assign a single agent to each ticket. However, assigning multiple agents to a ticket is also possible and can be of great value for a number of reasons including increasing support worker collaboration towards the resolution of a support case.
