 * Hi,
 * Thank you for your message.
 * Regarding the checkout issue: the plugin will work on the checkout page when 
   you place the plugin shortcode inside the checkout page content. After adding
   the shortcode, please clear your cache and test again with a guest checkout.
 * About registration: the phone number registration works correctly by default.
   If you are unable to register, the most common reason is that the SMS gateway
   has not been configured properly or is not sending OTP messages. Please double-
   check your SMS gateway settings, API credentials, and sender configuration.
 * If the issue continues, please send me:
    - Your website URL
    - A screenshot of the shortcode placement on the checkout page
    - A screenshot of your SMS gateway settings (you can hide sensitive keys)
 * I will be happy to check and help you resolve it.
 * Best regards,
   Hamid Alinia

 * Dear Moderator,
 * Thank you for your feedback. Let me clarify:
    - The plugin only has **two static, hardcoded notices** inside the code. One
      is about the Pro version (as the reviewer already mentioned), and the other
      is about web design services. Both are placed in the sidebar and are not intrusive.
      They are not loaded dynamically from any external ad provider.
    - Regarding the “face” mentioned: this is actually an **online chat widget**
      inside the plugin settings page, meant for quick support. It is small, floating
      in the corner (bottom left/right), and I have provided an option to disable
      it completely if the user does not want it.
 * I assure you I have not violated any WordPress rules. If I had, I believe the
   plugin would have already been closed. However, if you see anything that is against
   the guidelines, I will absolutely follow your advice and make any necessary changes
   immediately.
 * Also, this plugin is completely free. Users can use the documentation and set
   up their own SMS gateway using their preferred custom provider without any obligation
   to upgrade.
 * Thank you again for your guidance.
 * Best regards,
   Hamid Alinia

    1. Almost every plugin shows ads. This is very normal.
    2. You can disable it in the settings. It only appears to help you with setup.
    3. The basic functionality is included with Firebase. Iranian SMS gateways are 
       not part of the core. They don’t even support us on their own websites (Kavenegar,
       SMS.ir, FarazSMS, Mellipayamak, etc.) and ignore our requests to link back to
       our plugin.
 * It is unfortunate that many users in Iran prefer to download nulled/cracked plugins
   from random websites without supporting the real developers. And then the same
   users leave negative reviews without even knowing the situation.

 * Hello dear friend,
   Thank you so much for your message and for carefully reading
   the update logs, that’s very helpful feedback for me.About the note **“change
   prices”** in version 1.8.39:
    - On the **Gateway** tab in the plugin, the **SMS default gateway** should be
      set to **“System default.”** Once you select that, you’ll see the **System
      packages** and their prices.
    - When someone installs the plugin for the first time, these prices are displayed
      by default. The change in this update was related to adjusting those **default
      package prices** shown in the system, not prices in the plugin’s settings 
      or user functionality.
 * Also, honestly, I didn’t realize people read the changelog in such detail. If
   I had known, I would have written a clearer explanation in the update log. I 
   appreciate you pointing this out, it helps me improve the release notes for future
   updates.
 * Please let me know if you’d like any more details!
 * Best regards.

 * Hi John,
 * Just wanted to follow up — as promised, we’ve now released **version 1.8.25**
   of the plugin, which includes the new setting to allow storing phone numbers **
   without the country prefix**.
 * You can enable this option via the plugin settings.
 * Thanks again for your feedback — it helped shape this update. Hope it’s now exactly
   what you need!
 * Let me know if there’s anything else I can help with.
 * Best,
   Hamid

 * Hi John,
 * Thanks again for your feedback.
 * You’re not the only one who’s requested this feature, and after reviewing similar
   feedback from other users, we’ve decided to move the option to **store phone 
   numbers without the country code** into the **free version** of the plugin.
 * This change will be included in the next update, and we’ll add a setting so you
   can easily choose whether to store numbers with or without the prefix.
 * We appreciate users like you who push us to improve — even if the conversations
   get a little heated 😊
 * Thanks for using the plugin, and stay tuned for the update!

 * Hello and thanks for your message — and apologies for the delay in getting back
   to you here.
 * To clarify your question:
   In the **free version** of the plugin, phone numbers
   are stored with the country code by default. At the moment, there’s no option
   to remove the prefix before saving. This behavior is intentional to ensure number
   formatting and validation across international formats.
 * However, if you need to store the number **without the country code**, this feature
   is available in the **Pro version** of the plugin.
 * If you have any further questions or need help configuring the plugin, feel free
   to reach out — we’re here to help!

 * Hello brother,
   when you get error “hostname match not found” it means you did
   not add your domain and hostname to firebase gateway.

 * Hi, thank you so much for your kind words — I’m really glad the plugin saved 
   you time! 🙌
 * Regarding the warning you mentioned (duplicate `#security` IDs): this usually
   happens when the shortcode is used multiple times on the same page, or in a way
   that conflicts with the WooCommerce login/register forms (which the plugin already
   hooks into by default).
 * To avoid this issue, I recommend:
    - **Not using the shortcode on the same page where WooCommerce forms already
      exist** (like the My Account page), unless you have a specific use case.
    - If you _do_ need to render the login form multiple times, please make sure
      each instance is wrapped properly and not conflicting with built-in WooCommerce
      templates.
 * I’ll also consider adding better handling or auto-unique IDs in future updates
   to improve compatibility. Thanks again for the valuable feedback! 🙏

 * hello dear,
 * recaptcha is forced by google firebase and you can not disable that, if you want
   to be free from recaptcha, you need to use your custom sms gateway. You can setup
   SMS gateway yourself but if it is hard for you, you can ask online support to
   help you.

 * There is an option inside plugin, it is called: “Enable/Disable online support”
   
   You can disable that and then you would not see my face anymore, instead of rating
   me 2!!!!Also that is for online support, you have that on your website too.
