## Description

Inquix AI automatically generates and sends intelligent replies to your Contact 
Form 7 submissions using OpenAI’s GPT models.

**How it works:**

 1. A visitor submits your Contact Form 7
 2. Inquix AI generates a personalized response using OpenAI
 3. The visitor receives an instant, helpful reply

**Features:**

 * 🤖 AI-powered responses using OpenAI GPT models
 * ✉️ Automatic email replies to form submissions
 * 📝 Customizable prompt templates
 * 📊 Usage tracking and logs
 * 🔒 Uses your own OpenAI API key
 * 🆓 Free tier with 15 replies/month
 * ⚡ Pro tier with unlimited AI replies (*)

(*) Unlimited within fair use: a high monthly cap (currently 2,000 replies) applies
for security, spam protection and abuse-protection purposes. Any customer can contact
support@inquix.ai to have their daily and monthly caps increased at no cost.

**Requirements:**

 * Contact Form 7 plugin
 * OpenAI API key

**Third-Party Services & Data Disclosure**

Inquix AI relies on the following third-party services to function. By installing,
connecting your site, and enabling AI replies for a form, you consent to the data
described below being transmitted to these services. No data leaves your site until
you connect it and enable at least one form.

 * **OpenAI** — When a visitor submits a Contact Form 7 form you have enabled, the
   submission (visitor name, email, and message), your configured prompt/business
   context, and any Knowledge Base excerpts are sent to the OpenAI API to generate
   the reply. Requests use the OpenAI API key you provide. See OpenAI’s [Terms of Use](https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use)
   and [Privacy Policy](https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy).
 * **Inquix API** (api.inquix.ai) — Used to connect your site (your account email
   and site URL), verify your email, check your plan and usage, store your selected
   industry and your site’s WordPress language setting (locale, e.g. sv_SE), and
   deliver the generated reply email to the visitor. The reply email is sent by 
   the Inquix backend through its transactional email provider (MailerSend). See
   the Inquix [Terms of Service](https://inquix.ai/terms-of-service/) and [Privacy Policy](https://inquix.ai/privacy-policy/).
 * **Stripe** (Pro subscriptions only) — If you upgrade to Pro or manage billing,
   you are redirected to Stripe Checkout or the Stripe Customer Portal. Payment 
   details are entered on Stripe; no card data passes through your site or this 
   plugin. See Stripe’s [Services Agreement](https://stripe.com/legal/ssa) and [Privacy Policy](https://stripe.com/privacy).

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin files to `/wp-content/plugins/inquix-ai/` or install via the 
    WordPress plugin installer
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Go to Inquix AI  Settings

## FAQ

### Do I need an OpenAI account?

Yes, you need your own OpenAI API key. You can get one at https://platform.openai.
com/api-keys

### How much does it cost?

The plugin itself is free with 15 AI replies per month. You pay OpenAI directly 
for API usage (typically a few cents per reply). Upgrade to Pro (€29/month + VAT
where applicable) for unlimited replies (*). For security, spam protection and abuse-
protection purposes a high monthly cap (currently 2,000 replies) applies — contact
support@inquix.ai and we increase your daily and monthly caps at no cost.

### Which OpenAI model is used?

The plugin uses GPT-4o-mini by default, which provides excellent quality at a low
cost.

### Can I customize the AI responses?

Yes! You can customize the prompt template in Settings to match your brand voice
and provide specific instructions.

### Does it work with all Contact Form 7 forms?

Yes, it works with any Contact Form 7 form that collects a name, email, and message.

## Changelog

#### 1.0.1

 * Fixed: removed the Author URI plugin header — WordPress.org requires Plugin URI
   and Author URI to differ, and both pointed to inquix.ai. No functional change.

#### 1.0.0

 * First release in the WordPress.org Plugin Directory. Functionally identical to
   0.14.12 — version milestone plus final screenshots and listing assets.

#### 0.14.12

 * Changed: Pro pricing is now shown as €29/month + VAT where applicable — VAT is
   calculated automatically at Stripe Checkout based on your country, and EU businesses
   with a valid VAT ID are reverse-charged.

#### 0.14.11

 * Changed: Pro is described as unlimited AI replies (*) with a clear footnote —
   a high monthly cap (currently 2,000 replies) applies for security, spam protection
   and abuse-protection purposes, and any customer can contact support to have their
   daily and monthly caps increased at no cost.

#### 0.14.10

 * Changed: Pro is now consistently described as a high-volume fair-use allowance(
   5,000 replies/month, raisable via support) instead of “unlimited” — matching 
   the Terms of Service.
 * Internal: removed two unused leftover files from the plugin package; legal links
   now point directly at the canonical Privacy Policy and Terms of Service pages.

#### 0.14.9

 * Fixed: if Inquix suspends a site, blocked replies are now logged as “Suspended”(
   with a matching filter in the Logs page) instead of the misleading “Quota Exceeded”,
   and the admin notice explains the suspension instead of suggesting an upgrade.

#### 0.14.8

 * Internal: moved a documentation file out of the plugin package.

#### 0.14.7

 * Internal: industry definitions consolidated into a single registry — no visible
   changes; prevents settings-save issues when new industries are added.

#### 0.14.6

 * Fixed: on the Overview page, the “Upgrade” button in the Usage card no longer
   overlaps the text above it — it now sits on its own line, aligned.
 * Fixed: admin notices no longer overlap the page-header Upgrade button (added 
   the standard WordPress notice anchor).

#### 0.14.5

 * Added: the Overview page’s Setup Status now shows whether you’ve added Knowledge
   Base content, with a link to add it — replies are more accurate with your business
   info.

#### 0.14.4

 * Fixed: saving AI Agent Settings with an empty Primary Language no longer switches
   replies to language guessing. An empty field now falls back to your site’s language(
   auto-detected from the WordPress locale).

#### 0.14.3

 * Fixed: reaching your reply limit now shows a clear notice in the WordPress admin.
   Previously the notice was never displayed.
 * Improved: the limit notice matches your plan — Free plan shows an Upgrade to 
   Pro link, Pro plan explains the fair-use limit and how to contact support to 
   raise it.
 * Fixed: replies blocked by the daily fair-use limit are now logged as “quota exceeded”
   instead of “failed”, with the actual reason shown in the Logs page.

#### 0.14.2

 * Fixed: API error messages are now shown correctly in the Logs page. Previously
   some backend errors (e.g. reaching the fair-use reply limit) appeared as the 
   unhelpful text “Array” instead of the actual message.

#### 0.14.1

 * Improved: the Third-Party Services disclosure now explicitly lists the site language
   setting (locale) among the data stored by the Inquix API, matching what 0.14.0
   sends.

#### 0.14.0

 * Added: the site’s WordPress locale (e.g. sv_SE) is now included in the settings
   metadata sent to the Inquix API when you save AI Agent Settings, alongside the
   industry. Used in aggregate to understand where Inquix customers are located.

#### 0.13.2

 * Changed: the Disconnect button is now labelled “Disconnect & Delete Data” and
   asks for confirmation before proceeding — it removes your site and data from 
   Inquix and resets the plugin, same as Delete Site Data.
 * Changed: removed the “Email delivery configured” item from the Overview Setup
   Status — email delivery is no longer a setup step.

#### 0.13.1

 * Changed: Finish Setup on the Setup page now requires a successful Test Connection
   first; the Reconfigure button was removed (Update API Key reopens the wizard).
   New quick links on the Setup page: Auto-Replies On/Off (jumps to Sender Details)
   and Approval Mode & Inbox.

#### 0.13.0

 * Changed: the Setup page is now a 2-step wizard (Connect Account  OpenAI Key).
   The old Email Delivery step was removed — its auto-reply toggle lives in AI Agent
   Settings  Sender Details and its test email in Diagnostics.

#### 0.12.0

 * Added: a free-text box at the top of the Knowledge Base section (AI Agent Settings
   and setup wizard) — describe your business in your own words, no document or 
   FAQ needed. The AI uses it together with any uploaded documents.

#### 0.11.0

 * Improved: the Signature field (Business Identity) is now a multi-line text box—
   add a sign-off, business name, phone, and address on separate lines and the line
   breaks are kept.
 * Fixed: the configured signature is now actually included in every AI reply. Previously
   it only worked if you hand-edited the {signature} placeholder into your prompt
   template.

#### 0.10.1

 * Fixed: AI replies now open with a greeting addressing the visitor by first name
   and close with a business-name sign-off. Replies had lost their email shape after
   the visitor’s message was routed into the chat user role.

#### 0.10.0

 * Added: a data-use disclosure with Privacy and Terms links on the account-connect
   step (onboarding and setup), so it’s clear at that point that form submissions
   are sent to OpenAI and the Inquix API.
 * Added: suggested privacy-policy text under Settings  Privacy  Policy Guide, to
   help you document Inquix AI’s data handling in your site’s privacy policy.

#### 0.9.0

 * Improved: “Manage subscription” now opens the Stripe billing portal directly 
   instead of routing through the upgrade page, and active subscribers see Manage
   Subscription at the top of the Upgrade page.
 * Added: quick “Settings” and “Upgrade to Pro” / “Manage Subscription” links on
   the WordPress Plugins page, next to Activate/Deactivate.

#### 0.8.15

 * Fixed: AI reply no longer fails to send when the visitor’s email address matches
   your “reply-from” address and “Copy reply to from email” is enabled. Previously
   the email was rejected as a duplicate recipient; the copy is now skipped (you
   still receive the reply as the direct recipient).

#### 0.8.14

 * Fixed: email fields (account, reply-from, escalation) now validate the address
   before saving. Invalid input is blocked with an inline error instead of being
   silently discarded; empty stays allowed (falls back to the default). Enforced
   both in the browser and on the server.

#### 0.8.13

 * Fixed: source/manual installs now default to the production Inquix API instead
   of a development endpoint. Official builds were already correct; this only affects
   plugins installed directly from source.

#### 0.8.12

 * Fixed: the OpenAI API Key step in onboarding now requires a successful Test Connection
   before you can continue. Previously the step accepted any input and the validation
   wall only appeared at the final Finish Setup step, forcing you to backtrack.
 * Fixed: clicking Test Connection without changing the masked placeholder (shown
   when a key is already stored) no longer overwrites the real stored key with the
   placeholder string.
 * Fixed: settings inputs across onboarding and AI Agent Settings (company name,
   signature, sender details, escalation keywords, OpenAI key, etc.) no longer trigger
   save prompts from password managers like Bitwarden, 1Password, and LastPass.

#### 0.8.11

 * Fixed: AI replies to Contact Form 7 submissions now actually respond to the visitor’s
   question. Previously the visitor’s message was only embedded inside the system
   prompt while a generic placeholder was sent as the user message — the model would
   write generic replies that appeared to ignore the template.
 * Fixed: “Answer only from Knowledge Base” toggle now actually controls behaviour.
   The strict knowledge-base instruction has been removed from the default prompt
   template and is applied only when the toggle is on and a Knowledge Base is configured.
 * Changed: “Answer only from Knowledge Base” now defaults to ON for new installs.
   With a Knowledge Base configured, the assistant stays inside its content. You
   can turn the toggle off in AI Agent Settings  Knowledge Base to let the assistant
   speak generally outside the KB.
 * Added: when no Knowledge Base is configured, the AI now uses only the business
   identity you provided (company name, industry, signature) and politely offers
   to connect the visitor with a team member for any specific question it has not
   been given facts for. The AI no longer invents hours, prices, products, policies,
   or addresses on empty-KB installs.

#### 0.8.9

 * Fixed: after re-onboarding (i.e. running Disconnect or Delete Site Data and then
   completing onboarding again), the system prompt template was left empty. It is
   now restored to the plugin default on onboarding finish if the user has not customised
   it.

#### 0.8.8

 * Fixed: rare backend rate-limit (429) during email confirmation polling now shows
   the same friendly wait-or-contact message as the connect step, instead of leaking
   the raw error string.

#### 0.8.7

 * Fixed: the yellow reminder shown on the Plugins screen before deleting Inquix
   AI now uses WordPress-native spacing, matching the visual treatment of other 
   plugins’ update-available notices.

#### 0.8.6

 * Maintenance: CI cleanup after renaming the plugin’s GitHub repository to match
   the plugin slug — the WP.org Plugin Check job no longer needs its slug workaround.
   No functional change.

#### 0.8.5

 * Fixed: on the Upgrade to Pro page itself, the redundant “Upgrade to Pro” button
   no longer appears in the page header (the Stripe checkout button at the bottom
   remains). The header button still shows on every other admin page for free-plan
   users.

#### 0.8.4

 * Improved: the Inquix admin menu is reordered to put daily-use surfaces first —
   Overview, Inbox, AI Agent Settings, Logs, then Setup, Diagnostics, Upgrade to
   Pro.

#### 0.8.3

 * Fixed: in the guided onboarding, the Save & Continue button is now aligned with
   the inputs and other buttons in each section (previously it was nudged ~12px 
   to the right by an empty feedback span).

#### 0.8.2

 * Improved: save buttons across all admin pages now use a consistent green to distinguish“
   save / confirm” from “action / navigation” — matching the existing green used
   for “Replies ON” and connected-state checkmarks on the Overview.

#### 0.8.1

 * Fixed: the onboarding page now opens at the top — showing the welcome and “What
   you’ll need” overview — instead of jumping straight to step 1.

#### 0.8.0

 * New: the guided onboarding now opens with a “What you’ll need” overview — a valid
   email, an OpenAI API key (with a link to get one), and a recommendation to prepare
   a Knowledge Base for more accurate replies.

#### 0.7.1

 * Improved: the reminder shown on the Plugins screen before deleting Inquix AI 
   now explains that deleting the plugin removes only local settings, and points
   you to **Delete Site Data** (Inquix AI  Setup) to also remove your account and
   site data from Inquix servers.

#### 0.7.0

 * New: an Approval Mode toggle in the guided onboarding (Email Delivery step) —
   opt in during setup to hold AI replies in the Inbox for review before they’re
   sent, instead of sending automatically. Off by default.

#### 0.6.0

 * New: the Knowledge Base step in the guided onboarding (§6) is now fully interactive—
   upload PDF/DOCX, add FAQ/Policy/Facts, view, delete, and the “Answer ONLY using
   Knowledge Base” toggle, all without leaving onboarding. Still optional/skippable.

#### 0.5.2

 * Maintenance: refreshed WordPress compatibility (tested up to 7.0). No functional
   change.

#### 0.5.1

 * Maintenance: addressed WordPress.org Plugin Check findings — added missing i18n`
   translators:` comments, ordered placeholder positions, escaped admin output, 
   applied `wp_unslash()` to `$_POST` / `$_FILES` reads, gated debug `error_log()`
   calls behind `WP_DEBUG`, removed the unused `Domain Path` plugin header and the
   redundant `load_plugin_textdomain()` call (WP.org auto-loads since 4.6), aligned`
   readme.txt` title to the plugin header, and trimmed tags to 5. No functional 
   change.

#### 0.5.0

 * New: guided onboarding page (INQ-43) — on a fresh install a single progressively-
   gated page walks through account connection, OpenAI key, email delivery, business
   identity, form selection, knowledge base (informational), sender details, and
   escalation; the full menu unlocks once onboarding completes.

#### 0.4.5

 * Fixed: Clearer message when the backend is rate-limiting registration attempts(
   shows a wait/contact hint instead of a generic error).

#### 0.4.4

 * Maintenance: removed unused internal code left over after 0.4.3. No functional
   change.

#### 0.4.3

 * Fixed: Disconnect now removes the site from the Inquix backend instead of only
   unlinking locally (no more orphaned records).
 * Fixed: Disconnect and Delete Site Data now clear _all_ plugin settings (knowledge
   base, prompts, sender details, escalation rules, logs, etc.) — the site returns
   to a true fresh-install state. Previously many settings survived.

#### 0.4.2

 * Fixed: corrected the Pro price to €29/month and the free-tier quota to 15 AI 
   replies/month in the plugin description (both were previously misstated).

#### 0.4.1

 * Maintenance: removed unused legacy code from the plugin package (no functional
   change).
 * Added a Third-Party Services disclosure to the plugin description.
 * Updated WordPress compatibility (tested up to 6.9).

#### 0.4.0

 * AI Agent Settings  Business Identity now mirrors the saved **Industry** to the
   Inquix backend so it surfaces in the admin panel. Best-effort: if the API call
   fails, the local save still succeeds.

#### 0.3.1

 * Fixed: selecting **Construction & Craftsmen** in AI Agent Settings  Business 
   Identity now saves correctly. The save handler had a hardcoded allowlist that
   omitted the new slug introduced in 0.3.0, so the value was silently dropped.

#### 0.3.0

 * Added a new **Construction & Craftsmen** industry option (renovation, carpentry,
   custom builds) with its own tone/vocabulary nudge — for project-scoped work that
   needs a site visit before pricing, distinct from on-call **Trades & Home Services**.
 * Expanded **Professional Services** examples to include marketing, design, bookkeeping,
   and freelance.

#### 0.2.1

 * Knowledge Base: uploading a file or adding a text entry whose name matches an
   existing entry now prompts to replace instead of silently creating a duplicate.
   Match is case-insensitive and cross-type (a PDF “Refund Policy” matches a text
   entry “refund policy”).

#### 0.2.0

 * Expanded Industry list in AI Agent Settings from 5 to 12 options (E-commerce,
   Restaurant, Hospitality, Booking, Health & Wellness, Professional Services, Support,
   Trades, Real Estate, Education, Nonprofit, Other).
 * AI replies now include a per-industry tone/vocabulary nudge in the system prompt
   for the 11 named industries.
 * Existing sites are unaffected — saved industry values continue to work.

#### 0.1.1

 * Removed the Prompt Optimizer tool from AI Agent Settings  Advanced/Expert Mode.

#### 0.1.0

 * First release from the dedicated inquix-wp repository.
 * Version reset from 1.11.25 to 0.1.0 as the plugin moves toward WordPress.org 
   submission at 1.0.0.
 * No functional changes from 1.11.25 — pre-1.0 versioning baseline.
 * Full historical changelog (1.0.0 – 1.11.25) preserved in git history.
