WordPress Community Chat Plugin for 2026: Messages and Calls

· 11 min read
Creator of Better Messages

Better Messages is a WordPress community chat plugin: one install adds a real-time private messenger, group chats tied to your groups, and voice and video calls to a community on BuddyPress, BuddyBoss, PeepSo, Ultimate Member, FluentCommunity or SureDash. It takes the place of the platform's own messaging where there is one, so members write from the profiles and groups they already use, and it is free on WordPress.org, with the WebSocket version adding instant delivery, calls and web push.

PeepSo Messaging Plugin: Real-Time Chat for PeepSo Communities

Originally published when Better Messages added its initial PeepSo integration in v1.9.9.150 (mid-2021). This post has been kept up to date as the integration matured — PeepSo Groups messaging, the audio / video call buttons on PeepSo profiles, and the PeepSo Block Theme dark-mode mirror were all added in later releases.

Better Messages adds a WordPress-native real-time messenger to PeepSo sites, hooking into every PeepSo surface: the header navigation, every user profile, the members directory, the friends list, and PeepSo Groups. If you are using PeepSo Core: Chat, deactivate it after installing Better Messages to avoid a double-messenger conflict.
