Remove the widget from the page. If the widget is not present on the page, this is a no-op. To display the widget again, a full page refresh will have to occur, or one can invoke widget.load
.
Additionally, you can pass {resetWidget:true}
to the clear()
function to clear all chat related cookies, remove the widget from the page, and create a new instance of the chat widget.
Note: This is not the same as closing the widget, as it will be unavailable to the visitor. See widget.close
to close the widget without removing it from the page.
