## Description
Chat Buddy is a hosted AI chat bot (chat widget) for small businesses. This plugin
connects your WordPress site to your Chat Buddy account so you never have to touch
a line of code.
Saving your API key does four things at once:
* **Installs the widget.** No snippet to paste into your theme, no code-snippets
plugin.
* **Registers your site.** The widget only runs on domains you have registered;
the plugin claims
this one for you and confirms it automatically.
* **Syncs your WooCommerce catalog.** Products, prices, stock levels, categories
and product page
links are pushed to your assistant and kept up to date as you
edit them.
* **Syncs your pages and posts.** Delivery, returns, FAQ and similar pages become
answerable by the
assistant. You choose which pages and posts are included,
and unticking one stops it being used.
#### What the assistant gets from WooCommerce
For each published, purchasable product: name, SKU, the short and the full description,
the price
(decimals included), the regular and sale price when the product is discounted,
currency, stock, primary category, tags and the product page URL. Variations are
synced as separate products by default, because that is where the real SKU, price
and stock live.
The full description is what lets the assistant answer detail questions (“is it
safe on matte
paint?”), and tags are what help it suggest related products — so
they are worth filling in.
Trashing or unpublishing a product removes it from the assistant. Nothing is ever
deleted on the
Chat Buddy side, so your order history stays intact.
#### Multilingual sites
The assistant reads the language from your page’s `lang` attribute, which every
standard WordPress
theme outputs. WPML and Polylang sites therefore work with no
configuration in this plugin at all — just make sure the languages you use are selected
in your Chat Buddy dashboard.
### External services
This plugin is a connector for **Chat Buddy** (https://chat-buddy.app), a hosted
AI chat assistant
service operated by Aleksify. It cannot do anything on its own:
it requires a Chat Buddy account and an API key, and it contacts the service only
after you paste that key and save.
* Terms of Use: https://chat-buddy.app/terms
* Privacy Policy: https://chat-buddy.app/privacy
**What is sent to Chat Buddy, and when**
* **Your site’s host name** (for example `example.com`), when you save your API
key, so the service can
register and verify the domain. A verification request
is then made back to your site.
* **WooCommerce products** (if WooCommerce is active): name, SKU, short and full
description, regular
and sale price, currency, stock, primary category, tags
and product URL. Sent when you save a product, when you click “Sync all products
now”, and in a full resync once a week. Trashing or unpublishing a product removes
it from the assistant.
* **Page and post content** (only for the pages and posts you tick in the plugin
settings): the
rendered content, up to 50 KB per page. Sent when you save one
of those pages, when you run a sync, and in the weekly resync.
* **Plugin version**, sent in an `X-Chat-Buddy-Plugin-Version` header with each
request.
Every request is authenticated with your API key.
**The chat widget.** The plugin adds a script served from Chat Buddy (`https://admin.
chat-buddy.app/widget.js`)
to your site’s front end. When a visitor uses the chat,
their messages go directly from their browser to Chat Buddy and never pass through
your WordPress server. The plugin itself sends no information about your site’s
visitors or users. Chat Buddy’s handling of visitor data is described in its Privacy
Policy above, and you remain responsible for informing your own visitors about it.

## Installation
1. Upload the plugin ZIP through **Plugins Add New Upload Plugin**, then activate
it.
2. In your Chat Buddy dashboard, go to **Settings Integrations** and create an API
key. It is shown only once — copy it.
3. In WordPress, open **AI Chat Assistant** in the left-hand menu, paste the key and
click **Save changes**.
4. The screen will confirm which business you connected to and whether the widget
is active on this site.
## FAQ
### The screen says my site could not be verified. What now?
Before the widget will run on a domain, we confirm you control it by calling your
site back. That
call fails for perfectly ordinary reasons — the site is password-
protected, behind a firewall, behind Cloudflare bot protection, or not publicly
reachable yet. Your site is still registered; open **Security Domains** in your
Chat Buddy dashboard and approve it.
### Do I need WooCommerce?
No. Without WooCommerce the plugin installs the chat widget and registers your domain;
catalog
syncing is simply skipped.
### My products have no SKUs. Will syncing still work?
Yes. Products without a SKU get a stable `wc-` identifier so repeated syncs
update them instead
of creating duplicates.
### How often does it sync?
Immediately (within about half a minute) whenever you save a product or a synced
page, plus a full
sync once a week to catch anything that changed outside the normal
editor. You can also run a full sync on demand from the settings screen.
### Does deactivating the plugin delete my data?
No. Deactivating stops the widget rendering and stops syncing. Uninstalling removes
this plugin’s
settings from WordPress but never touches your Chat Buddy account.
