What is Call Now Button?

Installation & Setup

Installation takes under two minutes. From your WordPress Dashboard, go to Plugins > Add New, search for “Call Now Button,” click Install Now, then Activate. After activation, go to Settings > Call Now Button to check the enable box and enter your phone number. The plugin requires WordPress 6.1+ and PHP 7.4+. If you use a caching plugin, flush the cache after installation to see the button appear on your site.

Support & Community

Support data for the last 2 months shows 0 open threads and 0 resolved threads, which indicates a 0% resolution rate. This number is unusual for a plugin with 200,000+ installs. The rating breakdown tells a different story: 95% of users gave five stars, while only 3% gave one star. The high rating suggests most users do not need support, or they find solutions through the plugin’s clear documentation and FAQ. The FAQ covers common issues like caching conflicts and theme responsiveness, which likely reduces support ticket volume. The developer, Jerry Rietveld, has maintained the plugin for 14 years, which implies a stable codebase that requires minimal hand-holding.
