Release 5.8.3

What Changed

• Widget / Scenario Builder: the Search List with autocomplete step for the Widget channel now supports inline buttons — the same way as the keyboard step. Buttons stay visible even when the message has no text.

How It Changed

Before: when inline mode was enabled in the Search List step, the system still showed a regular keyboard; in the widget, empty messages were hidden together with the buttons — clients could not see the choices.

Now: with inline mode enabled in the list step, buttons appear under the message in the widget, like in the keyboard step. If the text is empty, the client sees only inline buttons — without an empty message bubble. Without explicitly enabling inline mode, behavior stays the same as before.

Why It Matters

Integrators can build menus and choice lists in the widget with inline buttons — easier navigation and quick actions. Website visitors see buttons even when the bot sends only options without accompanying text.
