The ChatBot will initiate the conversation with a greeting and then try to match the user inputs with system command or any intent you created in Dialogflow and If no result is found it will show a Start Menu with FAQ option or allow users to send a email or leave their phone number. You can <strong>disable</strong> the built-in features or <strong>modify</strong> the in-built chatbot responses from the backend and set up a few Frequently Asked Questions or FAQ. If the bot does not understand something a few times, it will display the Start Menu options to prevent user frustrations.

| 304 |
The ChatBot can work with ANY language. Just change the language texts from the ChatBot Settings->Language Center to your preferred one. Multi language is supported with the WpBot Pro version and an addon. |
| 305 |
|
| 306 |
= I am not getting emails from the ChatBot = |
| 307 |
The WPBot ChatBot uses the WordPress' default email function. If you are not getting emails from the ChatBot's email feature, it is likely that no emails are getting through from your WordPress site or they are ending up in the Spam box. Try using an SMTP mailer plugin. Also, try changing the to and from email addresses in the ChatBot's general settings area. |
| 308 |
|
| 309 |
= I cannot connect the ChatBot to DialogFlow = |
| 310 |
To Debug: 1. Make sure that you have created the Google Project and the Service account as an Owner |
| 311 |
2. Make sure that you have connected to the correct Dialogflow agen |
| 312 |
3. Follow the steps in this tutorial correctly: https://dev.quantumcloud.com/wpbot-pro/dialogflow-integration/ |

| 316 |
|
| 317 |
= Simple text responses are not working or getting an error = |
| 318 |
WPBot requires mysql version 5.6+ for the simple text responses to work. If your server has a version below that, you might see some PHP error or the Simple Text Responses will not work at all. Please request your hosting support to update the mysql version on your server. |
| 319 |
|
| 320 |
= I changed language or some other settings but do not see them when testing = |
| 321 |
Please clear the browser cache and <strong>cookies</strong> to see any change you have made. Alternatively, you can open a fresh browser window in incognito mode (Ctrl+Shift+N in chrome) to test your changes. Also, you may need to purge any cache plugin and CDN caching. |
| 322 |
|
| 323 |
= The ChatBot is NOT working in the front end. = |
| 324 |
The most common reason for this is if the theme is coded incorrectly and jQuery is loaded from external source. jQuery is included with WordPress core and according to WordPress standard, jQuery must be included using wp_enqueue_script. https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_enqueue_script/ . Please make sure if that is the case in your theme. |

= The ChatBot is stuck on typing or loading = |
| 329 |
This usually happens if you enabled DialogFlow but did not complete the set up. Please make sure that you have carefully followed all the steps for DialogFlow integration in the Settings->DialogFlow section. |
| 330 |
[This article](https://dev.quantumcloud.com/wpbot-pro/dialogflow-integration/) can also be helpful in getting the required information from DialogFlow console. |
| 331 |
|
| 332 |
This can also happen if there is any empty language fields or Simple Text Responses database needs updating because of mysql version changes. Try saving both the Language Center and Simple Text Responses. |
| 333 |

= How do I add new conversations to the ChatBot? = |
| 336 |
Without DialogFlow: You can create simple text conversations with the <strong>[Conversational Form Builder](https://wordpress.org/plugins/conversational-forms/)</strong> addon by using the HTML elements to dislay your responses. The adoon does not yet support Conditional responses. We plan to add that feature soon. But for now, you can create linear conversations and display them from the Start menu. Once you have created a form using the Conversational form builder addon you can add it to the ChatBot start menu from the WPBot Settings->Start Menu. Make sure to always Save the ChatBot Start menu settings after rearranging the columns. |
| 337 |
|
| 338 |
With DialogFlow: You can create new Intents and Text responses inside DialogFlow. For each user input, WPBot will automatically connect to DialogFlow and try to match with the Itents and training Data you added. When an Intent is matched, its response will be returned to the user. |
| 339 |
|
| 340 |
= Does the ChatBot work with Google's DialogFlow V2 = |
| 341 |
Yes, currently the ChatBot works both with Dialogflow version 1 and 2. V1 support will stop on Oct 23rd, 2019. |
| 342 |

| 344 |
|
| 345 |
= How do I add Line Breaks? = |
| 346 |
Please use the br html tag for line breaks. |
| 347 |
|
| 348 |
= Are HTML tags supported? = |
| 349 |
Yes, common HTML tags link link href, strong, br etc. are supported. |
| 350 |
|
| 351 |
= Does the ChatBot support images, GIFs, Videos = |
| 352 |
Images, GIFs and Youtube Videos are supprted in the pro version. Pro version also includes a handy giphy floating search for easy embed in the language center. |
