# Set up the full page chat widget

> Configure the full page chat widget in bitChat, including the welcome screen, suggested questions, launcher, and content width.

Full page is a Chat Widget style that opens the conversation as its own full-screen page instead of a floating panel. Use it when you want chat to be the main experience on your site rather than a corner widget.

## Before you start

* Open [**bitChat > Chat Widget**](https://app.bitbybit.studio/bitchat/chat-widget).
* Use a desktop browser for setup.
* Have your logo or profile picture ready if you want it in the chat header.

The settings live across two tabs: **Widget** for content, **Appearance** for branding and layout.

## Step 1: Choose the Full page style

* Open the **Widget** tab.
* In the **Widget type** card, open the **Style** dropdown.
* Select **Full page**.

The cards below the dropdown change to the full page settings once the style is selected.

## Step 2: Set up the welcome screen

The welcome screen is the first thing a visitor sees when they open the chat.

* In the **Welcome screen** card, turn the switch on.
* Enter a **Greeting headline**. This field is required and accepts up to 40 characters.
* Optionally enter a **Greeting subtitle**, up to 80 characters.

<Note>
  Leaving the **Greeting headline** empty while the welcome screen is switched on blocks saving and shows an inline error on the field.
</Note>

## Step 3: Add suggested questions

Suggested questions are shortcut buttons a visitor can tap to start the conversation instead of typing.

* In the **Suggested questions** card, select **Add a suggestion**.
* Type the question. Each one accepts up to 50 characters.
* Repeat for up to 3 questions. Once you reach 3, the add button is replaced by a message saying you have reached the limit.
* To remove one, select the trash icon beside it.

If you have not added any yet, the card shows a **No suggestions added** empty state.

<Note>
  Some older widget configurations were saved with more than 3 suggestions. Nothing is deleted, but only the first 3 are shown to customers.
</Note>

## Step 4: Choose a launcher

The launcher is the element on your site that opens the full page chat.

* Open the **Appearance** tab.
* In the **Launcher** card, pick one of three styles:

| Style            | Behavior                                               |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Pill button**  | A floating button invites customers to start a chat    |
| **Direct input** | Customers type directly into an embedded input field   |
| **Hybrid**       | A floating pill that morphs into a text input on hover |

* For **Pill button** and **Hybrid**, enter the **Button text**, up to 20 characters. It defaults to `Chat with us` and is required for these two styles.
* Use **Show button icon** to control whether the icon appears alongside the text.

**Direct input** has no button text, because the visitor types straight into the field.

## Step 5: Set the header and content width

* Still on the **Appearance** tab, open the **Chat interface** card.
* Enter the **Company or agent name**. This is required and accepts up to 20 characters.
* Upload a **Logo or profile picture** if you want one in the header.
* Choose a **Header style**:
  * **Logo and name**
  * **Logo only**
  * **Name only**
* Choose a **Content width**:

| Width      | Content area         |
| ---------- | -------------------- |
| **Narrow** | 480px, centered      |
| **Medium** | 680px, centered      |
| **Full**   | Fills the page width |

Content width applies to the messages and welcome screen content only. The header and the message input bar always span the full page width.

## Step 6: Save

* Select save.
* If a required field is empty or over its character limit, the save is blocked and the error appears inline on that field.
