Built for Tutor LMS
Real-Time Chat for Your Online Courses
If you've ever watched a student struggle in silence — waiting hours for a reply to a simple question — you already know how much a slow feedback loop can cost a learner's progress. Teaching online shouldn't mean communication goes cold the moment class starts.
Connect students and teachers instantly inside Tutor LMS — powered by Firebase for lightning-fast, zero-load messaging on every course.

The Challenge
Here's what we hear every day:
🐢 My students wait hours for a simple answer
Without real-time chat, students are left guessing mid-lesson. Teachers lose the ability to guide learners effectively, and engagement drops fast.
⚙️ Every chat tool I've tried kills my page speed
Most chat solutions bolt on heavy scripts that slow everything down, hurt your SEO rankings, and frustrate every visitor — not just the ones chatting.
🔒 I can't control which courses get chat enabled
A one-size-fits-all approach forces messaging onto every course whether you want it or not — no flexibility, no granular admin control.
The Solution
Here's what changes everything:
Tutor LMS Chat Plugin brings real-time, one-to-one and group conversation directly into your Tutor LMS courses. Powered by Google Firebase's Real-Time Database, every message is delivered instantly — without touching your web server, meaning zero performance impact on your site.
Course admins stay in full control: enable or disable chat on any individual course in seconds. Teachers and students get a seamless, fast communication channel right where learning happens.
Real-Time Course Chat
Students and teachers registered to a specific course can communicate instantly through a live chat interface embedded within the course. No switching tabs, no third-party apps.
Firebase Real-Time Database
All messages are handled through Google Firebase's Real-Time Database, ensuring ultra-fast delivery with no polling delays. Industry-grade infrastructure, already trusted globally.
Zero Website Load
Because Firebase handles all messaging infrastructure, there is no additional load placed on your web server or hosting environment. Your site stays fast for everyone.
Lightning-Fast Messaging
Messages are sent and received in real time, giving teachers and students a responsive, modern chat experience that feels as natural as a mobile messaging app.
One-to-One Teacher–Student Conversations
Private, direct messaging between individual teachers and students supports personalised guidance and focused academic support right inside the course.
Per-Course Chat Enable/Disable
Course admins can independently enable or disable the chat facility on each specific course, giving granular control over where communication is available.
Single-Domain API Licence
Each purchase includes an API licence valid for use on one domain, keeping your setup secure, properly licensed, and straightforward to manage.
Staging-to-Live Licence Transfer
If you first deploy on a staging site, a one-time additional API transfer to your live domain is available simply by emailing support — no extra cost.

FAQ
Your questions, honestly answered
Will this plugin slow down my WordPress website at all?
No — not even slightly. All chat data is handled entirely by Google Firebase's Real-Time Database, so there is zero load placed on your web server. Your site's performance is completely unaffected, no matter how many students are chatting at once.
Can I choose which courses have chat turned on?
Yes, absolutely. The course admin can independently enable or disable the chat feature on each individual course. You have full per-course control and can change settings at any time from your admin panel.
Is this a one-time payment or will I be billed again?
This is a straightforward one-time purchase of $75 USD. You receive an API licence for use on one domain with no recurring subscription fees.
I want to test on staging first — can I then move the licence to my live site?
Yes. If you first activate the API on a staging site and then need to deploy on your live site, simply send an email to support requesting a one-time domain transfer. There's no additional charge for this.
How many domains can I use with one licence?
Each purchase covers a single domain only. If you need to use the plugin on multiple websites or domains, you would need to purchase an additional licence for each one.
Can teachers and students have private one-to-one conversations?
Yes. The plugin supports direct one-to-one conversations between individual teachers and students, which is central to providing personalised course support. Private messaging is a core feature, not an add-on.
