## Description

LearnHub Chat Assistant with OpenAI lets you add a fully configurable AI chat assistant
to your WordPress website using your own OpenAI API key.

Configure the assistant’s instructions, welcome message, appearance and placement
directly from the WordPress admin settings page.

For full documentation, support and more information, visit the official plugin 
website: [https://chat-assistant.learnhubai.dk/](https://chat-assistant.learnhubai.dk/)

**This plugin is developed by LearnHub ApS and is not affiliated with, endorsed 
by, or sponsored by OpenAI.**

OpenAI usage is not included. You must use your own OpenAI API key and pay OpenAI
directly for usage.

A separate Pro version with additional features is available from LearnHub ApS outside
WordPress.org. This WordPress.org version is a fully functional single-assistant
plugin. Learn more about the Pro version at [https://chat-assistant.learnhubai.dk/](https://chat-assistant.learnhubai.dk/).

#### Shortcode

    ```
    [lhca_chatbot]
    ```

Add this shortcode to any page or post to display the chat assistant.

#### External services

This plugin connects to the OpenAI API when a visitor sends a message to the chat
assistant.

**What data is sent to OpenAI:**
 * The visitor’s chat message * The configured 
assistant instruction (system prompt) * Optional conversation context (page title
and URL, if enabled) * Optional conversation history (previous turns, if enabled)

The site owner must provide their own OpenAI API key. The API key is stored in the
WordPress database and is only accessible to authorized administrators. It is never
exposed on the public frontend.

OpenAI usage is billed directly by OpenAI based on the site owner’s API key.

 * OpenAI Terms of Use: https://openai.com/policies/
 * OpenAI Privacy Policy: https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy

If OpenAI tools such as web search, file search or code interpreter are enabled 
by the site owner, visitor messages and assistant configuration may also be processed
by OpenAI as part of those tool calls.

**Optional Webhook Integration**

The plugin includes an optional webhook feature. If you explicitly enable and configure
a webhook URL in the settings, the plugin can send chat history (including user 
messages and AI responses) to that URL when specific trigger words are used or when
the chat is closed. This feature is disabled by default. The site owner is responsible
for any third-party data processing at the configured webhook URL.

### Privacy

This plugin does not collect or store personal data about visitors beyond what is
necessary for the chat session. Chat messages are sent to OpenAI’s API for processing.
The site owner is responsible for informing visitors about this data transfer in
their privacy policy.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to **LearnHub Chat** in the admin menu.
 4. Enter your OpenAI API key and configure the assistant.
 5. Use the shortcode `[lhca_chatbot]` on any page or post, or enable the floating 
    widget in the settings.

## FAQ

### Where can I find documentation and more information?

Visit the official plugin website at https://chat-assistant.learnhubai.dk/ for documentation,
FAQ, support and information about the Pro version.

### Are OpenAI tokens included?

No. You use your own OpenAI API key and pay OpenAI directly for usage.

### Is this an official OpenAI plugin?

option, accessible only to authorized administrators. It is never exposed on the
public frontend.

### How do I remove my data?

Deactivating and deleting the plugin via the WordPress Plugins screen will trigger
the uninstall routine, which removes the plugin settings option and all related 
data from the database. Conversation history is stored in the visitor’s browser 
session only and is not written to the database.

writing are not included.
