 * Hi guys!
 * V1.0.277 seems to produce a strange error message in the wp-admin Dashboard:
 * `**WAP AI Assistant** requires HTTPS to use WordPress Application Passwords. 
   The AI chat widget will be hidden until this site is served over HTTPS.`
 * I must assume that this is related to your new “support chat” feature. However
   my website runs with HTTPS. And there is no way to close this error message.
 * Can you confirm that it is related to your plugin?

 * Verified that rolling back to V1.0.276 removed the message.
