Hi Max, I’m only seeing the expand chat window option. ![jeff](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/elfsight/original/3X/7/e/7e0863adfb4e1a652da28d3e3863bcd5ecee3e31.jpeg) Cheers, Rod ---

I see also ONLY the expand option - the other ‘new’ options are not visible on my AI chatbot window. Is there an issue or something that you have to activate to see those features in the AI chat widget settings? ---

Hi there, @KoalaStamps @user3416! I’ve just checked the chat, and all the options appear there correctly. The only thing is that they get visible only after you’ve started a chat - could you please check it once again? ---
