## Description

ChatWithAds is an AI marketing-analytics copilot. This connector links your WordPress/
WooCommerce store to your ChatWithAds workspace:

 * **One-click connection** — no creating API keys, no copy/pasting credentials.
 * **Works behind bot protection** — all communication is initiated _outbound_ from
   your site, so host-level firewalls and bot challenges (e.g. on Hostinger shared
   plans) don’t break it. You do not need to disable any security features.
 * **Read-only** — the connector provisions a read-only WooCommerce REST API key
   and only ever reads orders, products, customers, coupons and reports. It never
   modifies your store.
 * **Revocable** — disconnect from either side at any time; the API key is deleted
   automatically.

#### How it works

 1. Install and activate the plugin.
 2. Go to **Settings  ChatWithAds** and click **Connect to ChatWithAds**.
 3. Approve the connection in the ChatWithAds app. Done — setup finishes automatically
    within a minute.

The plugin checks in with ChatWithAds about once per minute via WP-Cron. On very
low-traffic sites WP-Cron can be slow; for best results configure a real system 
cron for wp-cron.php (standard WordPress guidance).

### External Services

This plugin connects your site to the ChatWithAds platform (https://www.chatwithads.
com). It communicates with the ChatWithAds API at chatwithads-backend.azurewebsites.
net. No data is sent until a site administrator explicitly clicks “Connect to ChatWithAds”
and then approves the connection in the ChatWithAds app.

What is sent, and when:

 * **On connection** — your site URL, site name, WordPress and WooCommerce versions,
   and a randomly generated site identifier and secret that authenticate all later
   requests.
 * **After approval** — a read-only WooCommerce REST API key generated on your site,
   which ChatWithAds uses to read store data you have authorised (orders, products,
   customers, coupons, reports, shipping zones, payment gateway names). Nothing 
   is ever written to your store.
 * **While connected** — a heartbeat roughly once per minute (plugin/WordPress/WooCommerce
   versions) and responses to read-only data requests from your ChatWithAds workspace.

Disconnecting from Settings  ChatWithAds (or uninstalling the plugin) deletes the
generated API key, notifies ChatWithAds, and stops all communication.

## FAQ

### Does this slow down my site?

No. The connector runs a tiny background check-in via WP-Cron and only does work
when ChatWithAds requests data.

### What data can ChatWithAds read?

Read-only WooCommerce data: orders, products, customers, coupons, reports, shipping
zones and payment gateway names. Nothing is ever written to your store.

### How do I disconnect?

Settings  ChatWithAds  Disconnect, or remove the site from your ChatWithAds workspace.
Either way the provisioned API key is deleted.

## Changelog

#### 0.1.5

 * Internal: lengthen the internal code prefix to `cwads_`/`CWADS_` to fully comply
   with WordPress.org prefixing guidelines. No functional or behavioural change.

#### 0.1.4

 * Declare compatibility with WordPress 7.0.

#### 0.1.3

 * Drop Plugin URI header (WordPress.org submission requires it to differ from Author
   URI).

#### 0.1.2

 * WordPress.org directory readiness: external-services disclosure, stricter input
   handling.

#### 0.1.1

 * Queries can aggregate all pages locally (`all_pages`), so relayed requests cost
   one round-trip instead of one per page.

#### 0.1.0

 * Initial release: one-click pairing, automatic read-only WooCommerce key provisioning,
   signed REST namespace, outbound relay for bot-protected hosts.
