Studio Editor: Adding a WhatsApp Button
Add a WhatsApp button so visitors can easily get in touch with your client. When visitors click the link, it opens a new chat on their mobile device / WhatsApp web. You can set an automatic first message, or leave it open for visitors to write what they want.
Tip:
You can also use any other linkable element (e.g. text, shapes, or media).

on the left side of the editor.
