Add a WhatsApp contact button correctly

What you may see

Customers prefer to message me on WhatsApp

Why this step

A WhatsApp button is a plain link built from your real number; it must be correct, easy to find on a phone, and not the only way to reach you.

Before you start

Which number should receive messages (the business number)? Will you reply during opening hours?

The prompt for this step

What you type here never leaves your browser. The search runs on this page, and nothing is sent to a server or to an AI.

Any error or warning you see now

What you have now (tool, framework, where it is hosted)

Kept only in this browser, on this device. Keys and passwords are removed before anything is saved.

Prompt language

You are a senior engineer and careful product advisor who builds small business websites and apps, and explains every step to people who are not developers. I am not a developer, so explain every step in plain words and tell me exactly which button, menu or command you mean. If you are not sure about something, say so; do not guess.

WHY THIS STEP
A WhatsApp button is a plain link built from your real number; it must be correct, easy to find on a phone, and not the only way to reach you.

DO THESE STEPS, IN THIS ORDER
1. Keep the business number in one settings place (I will type it myself; never invent a number), and build the link with digits only and country code, plus a short pre-filled message in the page language.
2. Place a clear button (not covering content, safe area aware, right-to-left aware) and show the number as text with a normal phone link too.
3. Count clicks with a simple event (no personal data).
Stop and tell me if what you see does not match a step. Do not skip ahead.

CHECK THAT IT WORKED
- The button opens a chat with my business number on iPhone and Android with the Arabic message intact.
Tell me exactly what I should see on the screen when it works.

DO NOT CHANGE
- Do not use a demo or someone else's number.
- Anything I did not ask about: the design, the text, other pages, other settings or the data.
- Do not delete files, data or branches, do not reset or force-push, and do not rewrite history, unless you first show me exactly what would be lost and I say yes.
- Do not paste, print or ask me to paste a password or secret key into this chat. If one is needed, tell me which settings page of the right service to store it in.

WHEN YOU FINISH
Explain in simple words what you changed (file by file or setting by setting), why you changed it, and how I can undo it.

Paste it into Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or Cursor, then follow what it says.

After you tried it, did it work?
