WordPress Dating Plugin vs Dating Software
February 21, 2023
Ladies and gentlemen, we are excited to announce the launch of SkaDate Discovery and an updated version of the Fake User Console! This groundbreaking new release lets you create and manage an amazing dating experience your customers will love.
Fake User Console 2.0
If for some reason, you've missed our Fake User Console release in December, it's never too late to check it out! In a nutshell, this is a platform for increasing your new website activity by chatting on behalf of fake users.
In this release, we've automated communication with real users by adding AI support which will remain connected until the agent is unavailable.
Here's the list of all the awesome updates:
ChatGPT integration
Keeping up with the latest trends, we've integrated Fake User Console with a famous Open AI - ChatGPT. Now, instead of an agent talking to a real user, AI can converse and build dialogues. The agent can intercept the communication at any time and continue the conversation on its own.
Messager Trigger Rules
Now, you can create powerful rules that automatically send messages to your real users from fakes as soon as a specific event occurs. For example, when a user visits someone's profile, is inactive on a website for too long, receives new matches, etc.
Agents Logs page was refactored
The agents' logs page was refactored to be more user-friendly. We've added a handy search feature for the logs to make navigation easier for you.
Agent Statistics
Now you can check the progress of agents and reward them afterwards for their active communication. The console keeps track of the number of conversations and responses from real users for each agent.
Bonus!
As a bonus, after the Console installation, you can receive a database of fake users for FREE! One thousand profiles with photos and descriptions.
SkaDate Discovery: what do you need to know
This release is about a complete overhaul of our mobile app and PWA, as well as bringing a SkaDate desktop solution to the modern age!
For SkaDate mobile app, we've rewritten user interfaces using updated Flutter libraries, made Tinder Cards smoother and easier to use than ever before; integrated Admob with third-party partners for added support; implemented full Android 12 compatibility; revamped Geolocation services for better accuracy and security.
We also integrated CCBill into PWA and much more. Plus, we've also implemented JWT tokens for extra security - so you can be sure your data is safe! So join us as we make this release the best yet.
But that's not all! We've also added support for PHP 8+ to the SkaDate desktop version, which will speed up your website by 30%. Plus, we've included tools for automated testing, which simplify the work on customizations for Bespoke Solutions.
