save agent to customer chat when customer returns.
I would like to suggest to save the earlier chat (and agent who handled it) and display it as history on a new chat from the customer.
Currently, if a customer chats in, speaks with Agent 1, comes back 15 minutes later, speaks with another agent. Things get very confusing. At least chats from the same day should be stored together so it can be seen what was already done/asked by that customer.

Hi Judith,
Thank you for choosing tawk.to and for taking the time to share your ideas here.
At this stage, each session has a 2-minute buffer. So if the visitor leaves the website or is inactive for 20 mins, they have a window of two minutes to resume the session. After that, the session ends and a new session will be created. You can enable the previous conversation to the widget to check, also history is available to access by an agent to catch up with the previous conversation.

Access control for KB
There should be some kind of access control on KB. For example, I run a tutoring company, and students should not be allowed to see everything that tutors can see. This should be based on an external flag passed to the tawk.io link or in the header.

Hi Alexander,
Thanks for reaching out.
As for the KB article is concerned, you can set articles to private, only that it can be accessible in the tawk.to dashboard, by property members (both agent and admin).

Dear Tawk. One thing that has disappointed me about the new Tawk version is that I'm able to see less of the conversation thread on the screen. In other words in the previous version I could see something the person said say two minutes ago. Now I'm having to scroll up to be able to see this. When you're in the middle of a conversation, this is certainly more of a hassle. Do you understand what I'm saying? Thank you.

At this time, there is no setting in the chat panel for modifying the font size. In the meantime, changing the text size in your browser may allow you to view longer conversations with less scrolling.

Our website main objective is to review leads. However, when a customer comes on our site, we are unable to see that they have been referred from adwords. Our previous chat plugin had this feature. Would easily pay extra for this feature if it were available.

Departments
Is it possible when creating departments for the ticketing that the tickets are only visible to the individuals in that department? We want to separate which users see specific tickets. As constituted it seems that no matter the department, all of the users can see the tickets. I do not think this is good as some created tickets or more sensitive then others. Is there a way we can implement this? Please advise. Thank you!

Hi Cody,
Thank you for choosing tawk.to and for reaching out.
When creating a ticket you have the option to assign it to an agent or a department. Even though a ticket may be assigned to a particular agent or department, anyone can respond from the Dashboard.
We have taken note of your suggestion and will post updates once the feature has been approved and implemented.
This is how the department function works for tawk.to chat:
1. Chats can be assigned to departments. All agents, including those not assigned to the selected department, can see the incoming chats. However, only those who are assigned to the department will get a notification.
2. This makes it easy for one agent to take over another agent’s chat — especially if the chat is transferred from one department to another. Also, your agents aren't wasting time trying to answer questions they don't know…

Hi Michael,
Thank you for choosing tawk.to and for sharing your question here.
We currently do not have a built-in option offering a customer satisfaction (CSAT) survey after chat sessions.
We do, however, have a Sentiment feature which allows vistors to provide positive or negative chat ratings.. This feature also allows you to filter results (e.g. by date or agent) and generate a report based on your visitors’ feedback.
If you wish to check an agent's statistics for User Satisfaction, do the following:
1. In the left sidebar menu of the Dashboard, select the Reporting tab (bar chart icon) in the left sidebar
2. In the Reporting menu, under Live Chat, select User Satisfaction.

Hi,
Thank you for choosing tawk.to and for reaching out.
Currently, we cannot assign chats to a specific agent or assistant. All incoming chats can be viewed and answered by all agents logged in to the property.
Departments allow you to make sure the right agents answer visitors. They also allow you to assign a ticket to a particular department, ensuring everyone in that department receives the email/notification.
Here is how the department function works:
1. Chats can be assigned to departments. All agents, including those not assigned to a department, can see all incoming chats. However, only those assigned to the selected department will receive a notification. This makes it easy to transfer chats..
2. Once a chat is assigned to a department, agents will only hear chat notifications when there are no agents online in the selected department. This prevents chats from going unanswered.
