What tech support includes
Things that are part of tech support services
Assisting customers in implementing code customizations, particularly, providing info on how to implement this feature, or that function, is only limited to minor or general-purpose recommendations. More specific requests are considered customizations that are charged for separately.
- bug fixes
- upgrades to default packages (default upgrade does not preserve any custom changes in templates and/or functionality that have so far been made to your website)
- minor code modifications (tasks that take less than half an hour to complete)
- minor template modifications (tasks that take less than half an hour to complete)
- assessment of customization requests
- minor technical recommendations and assistance. For example, answers to questions such as "How to make this text bold" or "How to add a link here" or "How to enable user email verification" etc. Such recommendations do not include or require our interference with the code or templates
Who is eligible for support?
- The Standard Edition customers are eligible for free 6 months of technical support starting from the date your order has been fulfilled.
- Customers who purchased support separately, i.e. Special Edition customers and Standard Edition customers whose 6-mo. technical support period has expired.

What is the Response Time for Paid Email Support?
- The maximum response time for support-related issues is 48 hours due to workload/time zone difference.
- The average period of support response is 12 hours.
- In case you have not received any reply to your request after 48 hours, please contact Support again: your email might have been undelivered/killed by spam filters. You can also use your alternative email account on another mail server.
How Support Forum Works?
- We respond to the requests in our The Community Forum whenever we have no pending email support requests from the eligible Standard and Special Edition customers.
- Forum-based assistance is free for everyone.
- There are no response time guidelines or standards for free forum-based help and advice.
Do we offer support by live chat?
- Yes, we do. You can easily contact our Support staff clicking the icon “Live Support”, when the status is “Online”. You can find the icon on the main page of the official sites of the WorksForWeb products.
- Forum-based assistance is free for everyone.
- There are no response time guidelines or standards for free forum-based help and advice.
Do we offer support by phone?
- No, not at this time. Due to time zone differences with some of our clients and availability of qualified support staff we decided to perform email- and chat- based support only. This is also done to ensure the adequate review of every user hosting and software environments and to provide a proper resolution to the reported problems.
When do we work? What are our working hours?
- We are opened weekdays only (Monday through Friday), and our working hours are from 9 AM to 11 PM (GMT+6 time zone). Here's a great link to calculate what it corresponds to for your time zone: Worldclock Meeting Scheduler
Support Requests
We are constantly working on improving the quality and efficiency of our support. One of the simple ways to reduce the response time and to improve the efficiency of our support efforts is to follow the simple guidelines described below:
Provide a detailed description of the issue
Typically, phrases like "that thing doesn't work" do not explain much. Instead, try to give a three to four sentence description of the actions you performed and the result that failed to appear as expected by you. A good example: 'When I click the Search button on page (pageurl), the following error message appears: "Undefined call to system function in module/....." (error_message url).'
Copy all error messages and their urls
We will be able to know exactly where the error appears, and the messages will provide us with enough info to diagnose the problem quicker. Also, one long email with 5 points in it is always better than five short ones with one point in each. We'd rather work on your project instead of sifting through emails.
Provide access details to your FTP/hosting account and admin panel
We do need the following information to check on the server environment you are working in, the software (including all the files installed), and the database in order to resolve some issues:
- Your installation URL for the software
- URL to the hosting SP's Cpanel complete with Cpanel user name and password
- FTP and/or SSH access details: user name and password
- Access to your MySQL database (phpMyAdmin preferred)
- Admin name and password for the software back-end
