Widget WhatsApp Message Button

Widget WhatsApp Message Button

This module adds a new field widget named whatsapp_message for Odoo 14.

When applied to a Char field containing a phone number, the widget renders a single clickable WhatsApp icon button in view (readonly) mode. In edit mode the field behaves as a standard text input so the number can still be edited.

Clicking the button opens a new browser tab pointing to https://wa.me/<phone_number>, allowing the user to start a WhatsApp conversation directly from Odoo.

Usage

Add widget="whatsapp_message" to any <field> tag that stores a phone number:

<field name="mobile" widget="whatsapp_message"/>
<field name="phone"  widget="whatsapp_message"/>

The phone number stored in the field should be in international format (e.g. [phone] or 628123456789). Non-numeric characters such as spaces, dashes, parentheses and the leading + are stripped automatically before building the WhatsApp URL.
