## Description

Aplivara Automate & Engage helps WordPress and WooCommerce websites collect customer
testimonials, display approved reviews, and connect customer engagement activities
to PlugFlow, the hosted testimonial and automation platform at [plugflow.in](https://plugflow.in/).
Aplivara is the plugin you install and manage in WordPress; PlugFlow is the connected
service where testimonials are stored, moderated and rendered and where review requests
and automations run. The plugin is published by [Sedulous Web](https://sedulousweb.com/).

**What you can do in WordPress**

 * **Show a testimonial wall** – add the **Testimonial Wall** block, the `[plugflow_wall
   id="…"]` shortcode or the classic “Testimonial Wall” widget. A picker lists your
   walls by name, the editor shows a preview, and the wall’s approved testimonials
   are included in the page HTML so they are visible before the embed script loads
   and without JavaScript.
 * **Collect testimonials and reviews** – add the **Testimonial Form** block or 
   the `[plugflow_form slug="…"]` shortcode so customers can send a testimonial 
   with a rating and, if you allow it, a photo or video.
 * **Ask WooCommerce customers for a review** (optional, off by default) – after
   an order is paid or completed, PlugFlow emails the customer a link to your collection
   form after the delay you choose.
 * **Send WooCommerce order events to your automations** (optional, off by default)–
   when an order is paid, completed, cancelled or refunded, the plugin sends the
   event to your PlugFlow workspace so the automations you build there can react,
   for example by sending an email or calling a webhook.

**What happens in PlugFlow**

Collecting, storing, moderating and rendering testimonials, sending review-request
emails and running automations all happen in your PlugFlow account. You approve 
testimonials in the PlugFlow dashboard, and only approved testimonials appear on
your walls. Automations and their integrations are configured in PlugFlow, not in
WordPress.

**Account and licence**

This plugin requires a PlugFlow account and a site licence. The Free plan includes
one connected site and is enough to show walls and collect testimonials; paid plans
raise the service’s limits (testimonials, walls, sites, review-request emails, automations).
Nothing in the plugin’s code is locked behind a payment. To connect a site, create
a licence key on the “Licences & Plugins” page of the PlugFlow dashboard and paste
it under **Settings  Automate & Engage** in WordPress. The number of sites a key
can connect at once depends on your PlugFlow plan and is enforced by the service.

**Blocks, shortcodes, widget and settings**

The plugin registers two blocks for the WordPress editor: **Testimonial Wall** and**
Testimonial Form**. Everything else is provided through the two shortcodes, the 
classic “Testimonial Wall” widget, the settings page (licence, connection and WooCommerce
options) and your PlugFlow dashboard. The plugin’s JavaScript is not minified or
compiled: what ships in the plugin is its source.

**Branding on the Free plan:** walls and forms rendered by PlugFlow include a small“
Powered by PlugFlow” link. It is part of the service’s output, not added by the 
plugin, and paid plans can turn it off per wall in the PlugFlow dashboard.

### External services

This plugin relies on **PlugFlow** (https://plugflow.in), a hosted service operated
by Sedulous Web (https://sedulousweb.com), the publisher of this plugin. It does
not display anything without it. PlugFlow [Terms of service](https://plugflow.in/terms)·
[Privacy policy](https://plugflow.in/privacy).

**Requests your WordPress server makes to the PlugFlow API (https://plugflow.in/
v1/public/…)**

Every request identifies the plugin and your site URL in its User-Agent header.

 * **Connecting and checking the licence** – sends the licence key and your site’s
   domain; when you activate, it also sends the site URL, the plugin version and
   the WordPress version. This happens when you click Activate, Re-check or Deactivate
   on Settings  Automate & Engage; once a day in the background; when a page showing
   a wall or form is viewed after the last check has expired (at most about once
   a day); when the plugin is re-activated with a key already saved; and when the
   plugin is deactivated or deleted (to free the site’s slot).
 * **Listing your walls and forms** – sends the licence key and domain, and receives
   wall and form names and IDs. Happens on Settings  Automate & Engage, in the block
   editor and in the classic widget form (cached for 10 minutes).
 * **Wall content** – sends the wall ID and receives the wall’s HTML (approved testimonials).
   Happens when a page containing a wall is rendered (cached for 10 minutes).
 * **WooCommerce review requests** – only if you switch on “Post-purchase review
   requests”. For each paid or completed order it sends the licence key, domain,
   the customer’s name and email address, the order number, and your chosen delay
   and form. PlugFlow uses them to email the customer a link to your collection 
   form and also records the order in your PlugFlow workspace.
 * **WooCommerce order events** – only if you switch on “Order events for automations”.
   When an order is paid, completed, cancelled or refunded it sends the licence 
   key, domain, order number, status, total and currency, the customer’s name and
   email address, and each item’s name, quantity and SKU, so your PlugFlow automations
   can react to them.

**Requests your visitors’ browsers make** on pages that contain a PlugFlow wall 
or form:

 * The embed script `https://plugflow.in/widget.js` is loaded from PlugFlow, and
   it loads the wall or form from the PlugFlow API. As with any web request, PlugFlow
   receives the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent.
 * The embed script reports anonymous view and click counts (wall or form ID, page
   domain and path) to PlugFlow for your dashboard statistics. It sets no cookies
   and uses no identifiers.
 * When a visitor submits a PlugFlow form, what they enter (for example their name,
   email address, testimonial, rating and any photo or video they add), together
   with their consent, is sent to PlugFlow.
 * Testimonials that contain a video hosted on YouTube or Vimeo load a preview image
   from YouTube (i.ytimg.com) and, when the visitor presses play, the YouTube (youtube-
   nocookie.com) or Vimeo player. See the [YouTube/Google privacy policy](https://policies.google.com/privacy)
   and the [Vimeo privacy policy](https://vimeo.com/privacy).

If you enable the WooCommerce features or show PlugFlow forms, mention PlugFlow 
in your site’s privacy policy.

## Installation

 1. In WordPress, go to Plugins  Add New, search for “Aplivara Automate & Engage” and
    install it, or upload the plugin zip there.
 2. Activate the plugin.
 3. Create a PlugFlow account at https://plugflow.in/register, or sign in to the one
    you have. The Free plan includes one site.
 4. In the PlugFlow dashboard, open the “Licences & Plugins” page and create a licence
    key for your site.
 5. In WordPress, go to **Settings  Automate & Engage**, paste the key and click **
    Activate**.
 6. Add the **Testimonial Wall** or **Testimonial Form** block to a page, or use `[
    plugflow_wall id="WALL_ID"]` / `[plugflow_form slug="FORM_SLUG"]`. The IDs and 
    slugs, with ready-to-copy shortcodes, are listed on the settings page once the 
    site is connected.
 7. Optional, with WooCommerce active: on the same settings page switch on “Post-purchase
    review requests” (choose the delay and the form) and/or “Order events for automations”.

No Sedulous Web registration is needed; the only account involved is your PlugFlow
account.

## FAQ

### Is a PlugFlow account required?

Yes. Your testimonials, walls and forms live in your PlugFlow workspace, and review
requests and automations run in the PlugFlow service. The plugin only displays and
connects that content on your site.

### Is there a free option?

Yes. The PlugFlow Free plan includes one connected site and lets you show walls 
and collect testimonials. Review-request emails are sent by PlugFlow and need a 
paid PlugFlow plan; the monthly allowance is shown on the settings page once the
site is connected. The plugin itself is free and has no paid features of its own.

### How do I connect my WordPress site?

Create a licence key on the “Licences & Plugins” page of the PlugFlow dashboard,
then paste it under Settings  Automate & Engage and click Activate. A key can be
active on as many sites as your plan allows.

### How do I display testimonials?

Add the Testimonial Wall block to a page or post and pick a wall by name, or use`[
plugflow_wall id="…"]` in any shortcode or text element, or add the classic “Testimonial
Wall” widget to a sidebar. The wall’s layout and colours are set per wall in the
PlugFlow dashboard; the wrapper element has the class `plugflow-wall`, plus any 
class you add to the block or shortcode (`class="…"`), for theme-level overrides.

### How do I collect reviews and testimonials?

Add the Testimonial Form block or `[plugflow_form slug="…"]` where you want the 
form. Submissions go to your PlugFlow workspace, where you approve them before they
appear on any wall.

### Does the plugin support WooCommerce?

Yes, optionally. With WooCommerce active you can switch on post-purchase review 
requests (PlugFlow emails the customer a link to your form after a delay you choose)
and order events for automations (paid, completed, cancelled and refunded orders
are sent to your PlugFlow workspace). Both are off by default.

### Where are testimonials managed?

In the PlugFlow dashboard at plugflow.in: moderation, walls, forms, review requests
and automations are all configured there. WordPress shows the result.

### Why do some identifiers use “plugflow”?

The blocks (`plugflow/wall`, `plugflow/form`), the shortcodes and the `plugflow-
wall` class name the PlugFlow service the content comes from. They are stable identifiers
so that pages built with them keep working.

### What happens if I disconnect the licence?

Clicking Deactivate on Settings  Automate & Engage releases this site’s slot in 
PlugFlow and removes the key from this site; paste the key again to reconnect. While
the site is disconnected, walls and forms are not shown to visitors (administrators
see a short note where the wall would be). Deactivating the plugin itself keeps 
the key and releases the slot until you reactivate. Deleting the plugin releases
the slot and removes the plugin’s settings, cached data and scheduled tasks from
WordPress; your testimonials stay in your PlugFlow workspace.

### Nothing shows on the page

Check that the licence is active under Settings  Automate & Engage, that the wall
is published in the PlugFlow dashboard and that it contains approved testimonials.

### I installed the earlier WordPress integration from my PlugFlow dashboard. What should I do?

Deactivate that earlier copy first, then activate Aplivara Automate & Engage. Your
settings, licence key, blocks, shortcodes and widgets carry over, and you can delete
the earlier copy afterwards. The plugin shows a notice naming the earlier copy if
it is still active.

### What is the relationship between Aplivara, PlugFlow and Sedulous Web?

Aplivara Automate & Engage is the WordPress plugin. PlugFlow (plugflow.in) is the
connected service that hosts and processes your testimonials, review requests and
automations. Sedulous Web (sedulousweb.com) publishes the plugin and operates PlugFlow.
