174
175 = Can I train the AI chatbot on my website content? =
176
177 Yes. MxChat supports unlimited knowledge base training using RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) technology. Import content from WordPress pages, posts, WooCommerce products, custom post types, PDFs, Word documents, text files, sitemaps, and manual Q&A entries. The AI chatbot will use your content to provide accurate, contextually relevant responses.
178
179 = What is RAG technology and how does it work? =
180
181 RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) is an AI technique that retrieves relevant information from your knowledge base before generating responses. When a visitor asks a question, MxChat searches your trained content using vector embeddings, finds the most relevant matches, and provides that context to the AI model. This ensures accurate, factual answers based on your actual website content rather than generic AI responses.
182
183 = Does MxChat work with WooCommerce? =
184
185 Yes. MxChat includes full WooCommerce integration. The AI chatbot can be trained on your product catalog including titles, descriptions, pricing, SKUs, categories, and custom fields. Enable auto-sync to automatically update the knowledge base when products change. Your chatbot can answer questions about products, pricing, availability, and help customers find what they need.
186
187 = Can I customize the AI chatbot appearance? =
188
189 Yes. MxChat offers extensive customization options including custom colors, chatbot icon, AI avatar, chat bubble size, light/dark/system themes, positioning (left/right), custom CSS, greeting messages, placeholder text, and widget layouts. Use the built-in AI Theme Generator to describe your ideal design and let AI create custom styling automatically.
190
191 = How do I add the chatbot to my WordPress site? =
192
193 You can add the chatbot using the shortcode `[mxchat_chatbot floating="yes"]` for a floating widget or `[mxchat_chatbot floating="no"]` for an embedded chat. Alternatively, enable "Append to Body" in settings to automatically display the chatbot on all pages without shortcodes.
194
195 = Does MxChat support streaming responses? =
196
197 Yes. MxChat supports real-time streaming responses for OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, and xAI Grok models. Streaming displays AI responses word-by-word as they're generated, providing a faster, more engaging chat experience for your visitors.
198
199 = What is the Chat Transcripts feature? =
200
201 The Chat Transcripts dashboard provides comprehensive conversation management. View all chat histories, see detailed conversation flows, track which knowledge sources the AI used for each response, monitor user engagement, and analyze chat analytics including daily activity, peak hours, and user distribution.
202
203 = Can I see which content the AI chatbot used to answer questions? =
204
205 Yes. MxChat includes full knowledge source transparency. In the Chat Transcripts and the optional debug panel, you can see exactly which pages, posts, products, or Q&A entries the AI retrieved and used to generate each response, along with relevance scores.
206
207 = Is Pinecone vector database required? =
208
209 No. MxChat includes free, unlimited local vector storage in your WordPress database. Pinecone integration is optional and recommended only for enterprise-scale knowledge bases with thousands of entries requiring faster search performance.
210
211 = Does MxChat support multiple languages? =
212
213 Yes. The AI chatbot supports multi-language conversations and automatically responds in the language your visitors use. MxChat also supports right-to-left (RTL) languages like Arabic and Hebrew.
214
215 = How much do AI API calls cost? =
216
217 API costs depend on your chosen provider and model. OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and others charge based on token usage. DeepSeek and Google Gemini offer generous free tiers. MxChat includes intelligent token optimization to minimize API costs. You can also set rate limits for guests and logged-in users to control usage.
218
219 = Is MxChat GDPR compliant? =
220
221 Yes. All conversation data is stored locally on your WordPress site, giving you complete control. Configure automatic data retention policies, export chat transcripts, or delete conversations as needed for compliance.
222
223 = Can I restrict chatbot access to certain users? =
224
225 Yes. MxChat includes role-based access controls. Restrict the chatbot to logged-in users only, specific user roles, or keep it public. You can also restrict specific knowledge base content to certain user roles.
226
227 = Does MxChat support live chat handoff? =
228
229 Yes. MxChat integrates with Slack for live agent handoff. When the AI cannot help or a visitor requests human support, conversations can be seamlessly transferred to your team via Slack.
230
231 = What are Actions and how do they work? =
232
233 Actions are custom triggers that execute when user intent is detected. Create actions for lead capture, appointment booking, support tickets, page redirects, or custom JavaScript. The AI automatically recognizes when users want to perform these actions and triggers them contextually.
234
235 = Can visitors upload documents to chat? =
236
237 Yes. Enable document uploads to let visitors chat with PDFs and Word documents. The AI extracts and processes document content in real-time, allowing contextual Q&A about uploaded files.

242
243 = How does the knowledge base auto-sync work? =

250

252
253 MxChat supports multiple embedding models for vector search including OpenAI text-embedding-ada-002, text-embedding-3-small, text-embedding-3-large, Google Gemini embedding, and Voyage AI embeddings. Choose the model that best fits your accuracy and cost requirements.

327 = 2.6.4 - January 6, 2026 =
328 - New: ACF Field Control for Knowledge Base imports. Users with Advanced Custom Fields can now control which ACF fields are included when importing content to the knowledge base. A new "ACF Field Settings" section appears in the Knowledge Database Settings tab, displaying all registered ACF field groups and their fields with toggle switches. This allows you to exclude sensitive fields like private notes or internal data from being embedded in the chatbot's knowledge base.
329 - Fixed: Knowledge Database entries now display in correct newest-to-oldest order. Previously, entries appeared in seemingly random order because the sorting was based on source URL rather than timestamp. New submissions now correctly appear at the top of the list.
330 - Fixed: Knowledge Database pagination now works correctly when searching. Previously, clicking to page 2 or beyond while viewing search results would show an empty table because the search parameters were lost during pagination. The search query and security nonce are now properly preserved across all paginated pages.
331 - Fixed: Manual content submissions no longer display a broken "View Source" link. When submitting direct content without a source URL, the Knowledge Database now correctly shows "Manual Content" instead of an empty or invalid link. This applies to both the main table view and individual entry displays.
332 - Fixed: Editing knowledge entries with manual content no longer shows internal mxchat:// URLs in the source field. The URL field now correctly appears empty for manual content entries, allowing users to optionally add a real source URL if desired.
333 - Fixed: Knowledge entries with short content can now be edited properly. Previously, if the content was too short to trigger the expand/collapse accordion, the edit textarea was hidden and inaccessible. The edit button now automatically expands the content area regardless of content length.

342 - Enhancement: Improved retrieval - finds best matching chunks, then fetches all chunks for top URLs and reassembles
343 - Enhancement: Chat input is now disabled while waiting for bot response, preventing duplicate message submissions
344 - Enhancement: When streaming is turned on it automatically checks if compatible and disables if not.
345 - Fixed: Markdown formatting now preserved correctly when streaming is disabled (newlines were being stripped)
346
347 = 2.6.2 - December 22, 2025 =
348 - Fixed: Critical error when viewing Knowledge Database with large Pinecone datasets (10K+ products)
