How to import WhatsApp messages into Provoon
Direct answer
Copy the WhatsApp text (and name), choose WhatsApp in Import, paste, save, and approve onto your Wall of Fame. Always ask - WhatsApp is personal. No WhatsApp link import in Provoon.
Why add WhatsApp proof this way
Local businesses get their best praise on WhatsApp. Those messages disappear into chat history unless you capture them once.
How to add a WhatsApp story in Provoon
- 1
Copy the chat message
Export or long-press copy the text. Hide phone numbers.
- 2
Ask before you publish
A quick "okay to share on our site?" keeps trust intact.
- 3

- 4
Approve it if it lands in Collected
Open Collected (or your wall inbox) and approve the WhatsApp entry when you want it public. Nothing shows on the live wall until you say so.
- 5
Add it to your Wall of Fame
In Curate or Wall of Fame, include the story in the layout you publish. Drag it where it fits - homepage proof, pricing strip, or a dedicated love wall.

Publish and embed
Hit Publish on the wall, then Get Embed if you need the iframe on your site. Changes show up on the live embed after publish - no re-paste of the whole wall.
What gets saved
Message text and display name tagged WhatsApp. Numbers should not be stored on the public wall.
Practical tips
- First name only is often enough.
- Voice notes: ask them to resend as text or use Audio upload with permission.
