With OpenRouter integration, you get access to models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Mistral, and other providers with a single API key. ### How do I get API keys for the AI chatbot? For OpenAI, visit platform.openai.com and create an account. For Anthropic Claude, visit console.anthropic.com. For Google Gemini, visit ai.google.dev. For xAI Grok, visit x.ai. For DeepSeek, visit platform.deepseek.com. For OpenRouter (100+ models), visit openrouter.ai. Each provider offers different pricing tiers and free credits for new users. ### Can I train the AI chatbot on my website content? 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. ### What is RAG technology and how does it work? 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. ### Does MxChat work with WooCommerce? 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. ### Can I customize the AI chatbot appearance? 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. ### How do I add the chatbot to my WordPress site? 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. ### Does MxChat support streaming responses? Yes. MxChat supports real-time streaming responses for OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, xAI Grok, and DeepSeek models. Streaming displays AI responses word-by-word as they’re generated, providing a faster, more engaging chat experience for your visitors. ### What is the Chat Transcripts feature? 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. ### Can I see which content the AI chatbot used to answer questions? 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. ### Is Pinecone vector database required? 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. ### Does MxChat support multiple languages? 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. ### How much do AI API calls cost? 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. ### Is MxChat GDPR compliant? 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. ### Can I restrict chatbot access to certain users? 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. ### Does MxChat support live chat handoff? 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. ### What are Actions and how do they work? Actions are capabilities your chatbot can perform — lead capture, appointment booking, support tickets, page redirects, image generation, web search, or custom JavaScript. MxChat gives you two ways to fire them, and you can use either one or both together: * **Trigger Phrases** – the original system. A smart vector embedding match fires an action when a visitor’s message matches a phrase you’ve set up. Precise, deterministic control over exactly when each action runs. * **AI Tools (function calling)** – the chatbot decides on its own when to run an enabled action, straight from natural language, with no phrases to configure. The easiest way to get started; it needs a tool-capable AI model. Manage both from the Actions area in your MxChat settings, which holds Trigger Phrases and AI Tools side by side. ### Can visitors upload documents to chat? 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. ### Does MxChat support image generation? Yes. With OpenAI GPT Image and Google Imagen integration, the AI chatbot can generate images based on user descriptions directly within the chat conversation. ### How does the knowledge base auto-sync work? Enable auto-sync for posts, pages, WooCommerce products, or custom post types. When you publish or update content, MxChat automatically updates the knowledge base with the new information. No manual re-importing required. ### Can I use Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) with MxChat? Yes. MxChat fully supports Advanced Custom Fields. ACF field data is automatically included when importing content. Use the ACF Field Settings to control which custom fields are included or excluded from the knowledge base—perfect for hiding private notes or internal data from the chatbot. ### What embedding models does MxChat support? Built in: OpenAI (text-embedding-ada-002, text-embedding-3-small, text-embedding- 3-large), Google Gemini embedding, and Voyage AI. You can also use any OpenAI-compatible embeddings endpoint — Ollama, LM Studio, vLLM, LocalAI, or Azure OpenAI — by configuring the Custom Provider under Settings, then enabling “Use custom provider for embeddings” and naming your embedding model (for example nomic-embed-text) in the Custom Embedding Model field. Both knowledge base indexing and live queries then use that endpoint. Re-index your knowledge base after changing embedding models so stored vectors match query vectors. ### Can I use a local model such as Ollama or LM Studio? Yes. MxChat’s Custom Provider setting accepts any OpenAI-compatible API endpoint, including locally hosted ones like Ollama, LM Studio, vLLM, and LocalAI. Point the Custom Provider base URL at your server, choose your chat model, and optionally enable “Use custom provider for embeddings” with a local embedding model such as nomic-embed-text or mxbai-embed-large to keep the entire pipeline — chat and vector search — on your own hardware with no per-token costs. ### Is there a free version of MxChat? Yes. MxChat is available for free on the WordPress plugin repository with full AI chatbot functionality. Premium add-ons are available for advanced features like the AI Theme Generator and priority support. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/7466ce7067f1c6af8849fcb77f6c6c7d7c149452fe80acc399c547f489fddb7c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Blown Away Is a Cliche But I Was!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blown-away-is-a-cliche-but-i-was/)󠁿 [](https://profiles.wordpress.org/2packrats2/) 23 กรกฎาคม 2026 After using the free version for just a few minutes, I immediately bought the paid version.

When a post was published by an import tool, a scheduled post going live, or a script, the first edit after it was silently left out of the knowledge base, so the chatbot kept answering from the original version. * Fixed: PDFs shared in chat no longer store unreadable pages when an embedding request fails part-way through. Failed pages are skipped and recorded in the Debug Mode log, and if no page can be read the chatbot now gives the real reason instead of calling the file empty or unsupported. * Fixed: Clearing a conversation, deleting a transcript, or erasing a visitor’s data through WordPress’s privacy tools now removes every trace of that session’s stored state. Some of it was previously left behind forever. * Fixed: Job listings imported from the content selector now include their location, job type and company name, matching listings saved in the editor. Listings imported earlier keep their old text until you import them again. * Fixed: Post titles are now added to the knowledge base exactly as written. Curly quotes, apostrophes and long dashes were stored as raw character codes, and protected or private posts gained a Protected prefix — all of which could surface in answers. Entries indexed earlier keep their old titles until you import them again. * Fixed: A short description made up only of page-builder shortcodes or spaces no longer adds an empty Short Description heading to the indexed text. * Improved: Custom field names containing hyphens now read as words in the indexed text on both import routes, instead of only one of them. * Improved: Chat sessions no longer bloat your site’s options table. Per-session details were saved as settings rows that were never cleaned up, so busy sites accumulated thousands, some loading on every page view. Sessions now live in their own table, and existing rows are moved across automatically in the background after you update. * New: Old chat sessions are tidied up on their own. Sessions untouched for 30 days are removed automatically — the window is adjustable with a developer filter— and the cleanup runs even on sites with WordPress scheduled tasks disabled. * Fixed: Sitemap imports now tell you why they failed instead of pointing at an empty status area — for example, an API key missing the required permission is now named as the reason. * Improved: Knowledge base import errors from OpenAI, Gemini and Voyage now pass along the provider’s own explanation instead of a generic invalid key message. * Improved: Chat-side embedding failures are now recorded in the Debug Mode log with the provider’s real reason, matching knowledge base imports. * Fixed: In the content selector, a selected item’s tick mark was white on a white box and effectively invisible. Selected items now show a clearly filled checkbox. #### 3.2.17 – August 5, 2026 * Fixed: Japanese, Chinese and Thai content is no longer erased, split into oversized chunks, or stripped of rare characters during knowledge base imports. * Fixed: Custom embedding providers such as Ollama, LM Studio and Azure now work end to end — the permanent mismatch banner is gone, and no cloud API key is needed for imports or automatic post syncing. * Fixed: Scheduled posts now enter the knowledge base the moment they go live, and the developer hook for customizing indexed content also runs during automatic post syncing. * Fixed: The WordPress content import window now fits phone screens, so its buttons are always reachable. * Fixed: The hybrid keyword boost and smart asset loading toggles now show the saved confirmation like every other setting. * New: Every settings tab has its own shareable link that opens directly on that tab, including nested and add-on tabs. * Improved: Knowledge settings are centralized under Knowledge — ACF PDF extraction is now a persistent setting on the ACF Fields tab, and the hybrid keyword boost lives on the new Chunking and Retrieval tab. Saved choices carry over. * Improved: The Editor Assistant toggle moved to the Content page’s Settings tab, next to the other content tools. * Improved: The FAQ now documents custom and local embedding providers such as Ollama and LM Studio. * Improved: Settings holding a Pinecone API key are no longer loaded into memory on every page view. #### 3.2.16 – August 2, 2026 * New: Chat conversations are now covered by WordPress’s built-in privacy tools— export requests return readable transcripts, and erasure requests delete conversations, captured emails, saved history and document traces, for both logged-in and anonymous visitors. * New: Optional hybrid keyword boost for the WordPress-database knowledge base, off by default. It combines keyword matching with the existing similarity search so exact tokens such as product codes, SKUs and error codes find the right document, and Transcripts labels each match Vector, Keyword or Both. * New: If your AI provider starts rejecting the configured model, MxChat now shows a persistent admin notice naming the model and linking to Settings. Previously only visitors saw the error. * Fixed: Security — hardened validation of chat session identifiers throughout the plugin. Sites using automatic transcript emails should update. * Fixed: Security — tightened the permission checks around MxChat’s admin scripts and admin-only actions, so they load and run only for users who can manage plugin options. * Fixed: Security — removed an unused block of stored settings data that was no longer needed. * Fixed: OpenAI retires the GPT-5.1 Chat Latest and GPT-5.3 Chat models on August 10, 2026. Both are removed from the picker and affected sites switch to GPT-5.6 Sol automatically, with an admin notice explaining the change. * Fixed: Unpublishing, trashing or making a post private now always removes it from the knowledge base, including status changes made by scheduled-expiry plugins that bypass the save screen. A new command, wp mxchat prune-unpublished, clears entries left by earlier unpublishes. * Fixed: Streaming replies arrive word by word again on hosts behind a proxy such as nginx, instead of all at once after a pause. Four PHP warnings per affected chat are gone with it. * Fixed: Quick Question buttons render at their normal size again. In 3.2.15 the new theme-protection styles let the list compress its buttons to fit the box, so the scrollbar never appeared. * Fixed: The Loops email-capture messages no longer send you looking for a field that is not on that screen. Both now name the API Keys tab and link straight to it. * Fixed: Removed a duplicate save-action registration on the knowledge-bot selector that pointed at code which does not exist. It would have crashed the admin screen if load ordering ever changed. * Improved: Knowledge base import errors now carry the embedding provider’s real reason, such as an invalid API key or exhausted credit, name the model, and say whether embedding or storage failed. * Improved: Models with an announced retirement date now show that date in the picker and disappear once it passes. A model you already have selected stays visible in Settings. * Improved: When the knowledge base has nothing relevant, the chatbot is now told so directly instead of receiving a no-information note dressed up as knowledge base content, so it simply says it does not know. #### 3.2.15 – July 28, 2026 * Fixed: DeepSeek chat works again. DeepSeek retired its older API model names on July 24, 2026, which broke every DeepSeek-powered chat; the model picker now offers DeepSeek V4 Flash and V4 Pro, and sites still set to an older DeepSeek model switch to V4 Flash automatically on update. * New: Claude Opus 5 is available in the model picker — Anthropic’s newest Opus model, the same price as Claude Opus 4.8, working across chat, streaming and the AI content tools. * New: Optional performance setting to load chatbot files only on pages where the chatbot actually appears. Off by default, and helpful for reduce-unused-CSS-and- JS findings in performance audits. * New: Slack live agent handoff can route every conversation into one shared channel your team already monitors, one thread per visitor, instead of creating a channel per visitor. Leave the new field blank and nothing changes. * New: Optional setting to archive a conversation’s Slack channel when an agent ends the chat, so channels stop piling up. Off by default. * New: Place your knowledge base content anywhere in your AI instructions using the context placeholder. Leave it out and MxChat works exactly as before. * New: The SEO content table now shows an average search position column from the last 28 days, available with the Advanced Content add-on connected to Search Console. * Improved: When Search Console is not connected yet, the SEO content table now explains that connecting it fills the clicks, impressions and position columns, with a link to the Settings tab, instead of showing unexplained dashes. * Improved: SEO content table sorting now keeps every post in the list on every filter, with posts that have no data grouped at the end. * Improved: X.AI errors now include the provider’s specific reason, such as the exact model name it could not find, alongside the general explanation. * Improved: Sites using a delayed or on-interaction script loading strategy no longer perform an unnecessary database write on every page view. * Fixed: The chat widget now defends itself against website themes whose styles bleed into it, including the header menu. Your own custom widget CSS keeps working unchanged. * Fixed: When an AI provider returns a successful but empty reply, the chatbot now shows a clear message asking the visitor to try again instead of an empty chat bubble. Streaming chats close out the same way. * Fixed: Provider errors now pass along the provider’s actual explanation instead of a generic Unknown error, across image providers, embeddings, knowledge base search, web search, streamed replies and OpenRouter. * Fixed: Conversations handled by a human now show as Live Agent in the Transcripts viewer and in emailed transcripts, instead of everything being labeled AI Assistant. * Fixed: The streaming test button on the settings page now works with the newest Claude models, which previously returned an error even though chat itself worked. * Fixed: Turning on developer mode no longer re-runs the plugin’s activation and database migration routine on every page load. * Fixed: The hourly rate-limit reset now re-creates itself if the scheduled task ever goes missing, so visitors are never left rate-limited longer than intended. * Fixed: On sites where WordPress scheduled tasks are disabled, the hourly fallback check no longer loads a duplicate copy of the plugin’s internals mid-request. #### 3.2.14 – July 18, 2026 * New: Editor Assistant — optional AI writing actions right inside the WordPress block editor. Select a paragraph, heading, list, or quote block and rewrite it( concise, expanded, formal, or casual), summarize it, translate it to another language, continue writing, or fix grammar and spelling, then Accept or Discard. It is off by default and uses the AI model you already configured. * New: You can now add YouTube videos to your knowledge base. A new YouTube option on the Import screen takes a video link and, per video, either auto-fetches its title, channel, and captions or lets you write your own description. When a visitor’s question matches a video, the answer includes it as a playable embed right inside the chat that loads no YouTube player or Google cookies until the visitor taps play. * New: Live agent handoff can now follow an availability schedule, so visitors are only offered a human during the days and hours your team is actually reachable, and the chatbot simply keeps answering outside them. Slack and Telegram each get their own independent schedule on their own settings tab, so a channel staffed at different hours keeps its own calendar. It is off by default and uses your site timezone. * New: Added the latest OpenAI GPT-5.6 models — Sol, Terra, and Luna — for both your chatbot and content generation. * New: MxChat AI Search now appears on the Pro and Extensions page alongside the other add-ons, so you can discover it from inside your dashboard. * New: Developers can now add their own trusted links to the chatbot’s allowed- links list with the new mxchat_valid_urls filter, so links returned by custom function-calling tools stay clickable in replies. * Fixed: Editing a Knowledge Base entry no longer throws away your work. Clicking outside the edit box, or selecting text and releasing the mouse just past its edge, used to close it and discard everything you had typed. The box now closes only when you ask it to — the close or cancel button, the Escape key, or a successful save — and confirms first if you have unsaved changes. The same fix applies to the Add Tool and Edit Tool dialog on the Actions screen. * Fixed: Product and image search now correctly refine your search terms when a GPT-5 model is selected. Previously the refinement step silently stopped working and fell back to the raw text, weakening results. * Fixed: The Telegram live-agent webhook is no longer accepted without verification when a secret token has not been set; requests are now validated by origin and a reminder is shown to configure a secret. * Fixed: The Testing page’s chatbot replica now uses the exact same knowledge base as your live chatbot. On sites running Pinecone with the Multi-Bot add-on active, the testing chat was quietly searching the WordPress database instead. * Fixed: Automatic transcript deletion now repairs its own schedule if the scheduled cleanup task is ever lost, so old transcripts no longer stop being deleted while your settings still say retention is on. The Transcripts settings also now show when the next cleanup will run. #### 3.2.13 – July 10, 2026 * New: Claude Sonnet 5 is now selectable as both a chat model and a content generation model. * New: The Knowledge Base Custom Post Meta section can scan your content and suggest custom meta keys as clickable options, so you can add non-ACF meta to the embedding whitelist without knowing the exact key names. * Fixed: Knowledge Base imports of PDFs and web pages no longer fail with a 403 error on firewall-protected hosts (SiteGround, Wordfence, Cloudflare) — MXChat now identifies itself with an honest, versioned MXChatBot user agent you can allowlist if needed. * Fixed: PDFs a visitor links in a live chat now use the same MXChatBot identity, so a firewall that allowlists MXChatBot lets them through too. * Fixed: The close button on the pre-chat greeting bubble now works on chatbots with a custom bot ID, including Multi-Bot setups, not just the default chatbot. * Improved: The Custom Post Meta help text now points to the built-in key scanner and notes that array and repeater values are flattened during embedding. #### 3.2.12 – June 30, 2026 * Fixed: Resolved a WordPress.org packaging issue from the previous release that could cause the update to fail to download or appear to hang in the WordPress dashboard on some sites. This maintenance release republishes the plugin so every site can update normally and receive the recent improvements from 3.2.11 — including the per-provider Test API key buttons, built-in WPML and Polylang translation for the chat widget, Google Gemini web search, the optional Max Input Length character counter, cleaner Slack live-agent links, the Knowledge View indexed content panel, and the security and Pinecone matching fixes. No functional changes from 3.2.11; no settings or data are affected. #### 3.2.11 – June 29, 2026 * New: Each AI provider API key field (OpenAI, X.AI, Claude, DeepSeek, Google Gemini, OpenRouter) now has a Test key button that checks whether the key actually works in one click, so you can confirm a key is valid right after pasting it instead of finding out only when a chat fails. It runs a quick, free validation check and never spends credits. * Fixed: When restricting knowledge by tag under Knowledge then Role Restrictions, you can now enter a tag by its display name or its slug. Previously only the exact slug worked, so typing a real tag’s name returned a confusing error; the field is now labeled Tag (name or slug) and gives an actionable message when no matching tag exists. * Fixed: On sites using Pinecone for knowledge, answers added directly through Knowledge then Import Options then Direct Content (manual entries with no source link) are now used by the chatbot when they are the best match. Previously the bot could reply that it did not have the information even though the manual entry clearly matched, and the testing panel showed zero sources used; both are now correct. * New: Built-in WPML and Polylang compatibility for the chat widget text. The widget’s visible strings (top bar title, greeting, AI agent label, input placeholder, the email and name capture form copy, and the satisfaction prompts) now show up automatically in WPML String Translation, so you can translate the widget into each language without registering every field by hand. * New: Optional Max Input Length setting caps how many characters a visitor can type or paste into a single message, so you can stop overly long pastes from being sent to the AI. It sits just below the Input Placeholder option in the chatbot settings. Leave it at 0 for unlimited, which is the default and keeps existing behavior unchanged. * Fixed: Security hardening for the chat intro message setting, following a Wordfence advisory. The intro message is now escaped when shown on the settings page and sanitized when saved, so a crafted value can no longer run script in the admin area on multisite sites or sites where unfiltered HTML is disabled. * Fixed: When a live agent replies from Slack with a link, the website visitor now sees a clean, clickable link instead of Slack’s raw formatting with a stray closing bracket. Slack user and channel mentions and escaped characters are also tidied up before the message reaches the visitor. * New: The Slack live-agent channel now shows the visitor’s name and email at the top of the conversation when they were captured at the start of the chat, so your agent can see who they are talking to instead of just a session ID and a user ID of zero for guests. * Improved: When a maximum message length is set, the chat box now shows a small live character counter as the visitor nears the limit, ramping from a neutral color to amber to red, with a gentle nudge if they reach the cap. This replaces the old behavior where typing past the limit silently did nothing and looked broken. The counter uses only numbers, so it reads correctly on sites in any language. * New: When the built-in Web Search option is on, chatbots using a Google Gemini model now answer using live Google Search results, just like OpenAI models already do. Previously the Web Search setting only affected OpenAI models and silently did nothing for Gemini, so Gemini users had to add the separate Perplexity add- on to get web-grounded answers. Gemini’s built-in search uses the Google API key you already configured, at no extra cost. * New: Each Knowledge entry now has a View indexed content button that opens a read-only panel showing exactly what the chatbot indexed for it: the stored text broken into the same chunks the search uses, each chunk’s length, and for Pinecone the stored metadata fields. This makes it easy to confirm what was actually saved and searched for a page or a manual entry, so you can tell at a glance why a piece of content is or is not being matched, without changing anything. #### 3.2.10 – June 19, 2026 * New: AI Tools (function calling) — the chatbot can now decide on its own when to use your enabled tools, such as web search, image generation, answering from an uploaded PDF, and active add-on actions like WooCommerce, straight from natural language with no trigger phrases to set up. Turn it on under Actions then AI Tools (off by default; needs a tool-capable AI model), add the tools you want with a guided picker, and optionally tell the assistant in plain language when to use each one. Tools that spend money, expose customer data, or hand off to a human stay off until you enable them deliberately * New: Optional “Start new chat” button in the chat window menu — lets visitors clear the current conversation and start fresh in one click, without turning off chat persistence (off by default; enable it under Chatbot then Display, with a customizable label) * Improved: The Actions area is clearer — the original phrase-matching system is now called Trigger Phrases and sits alongside AI Tools under one Actions menu, with AI Tools listed first as the recommended path and a plain-language explainer of when to use each * Improved: Readable, leak-safe AI error messages now cover every provider (Claude, OpenAI, xAI, Google Gemini, DeepSeek and OpenRouter) for both API errors and connection or timeout failures — site admins get an actionable hint such as choosing another model in Settings, while visitors only ever see a friendly fallback and never raw API or network details * Improved: Applying or changing an AI theme, and toggling Pinecone, now auto-clears supported page caches the same way other settings changes do — no more stale widget appearance after a theme change * Fixed: On multi-bot sites, non-streaming replies now correctly use the bot assigned to the visitor’s session instead of falling back to the default bot’s prompt and knowledge, and a repeated PHP notice in the debug log is gone * Fixed: Images created with the Gemini image generator now display correctly in the chat window — previously the bot reported it had made an image but nothing appeared, because the file was saved with the wrong file type * Fixed: The Slack live-agent setup notice in Settings now links to the current setup guide on the MxChat Core documentation page * Fixed: Two older Claude models that Anthropic has now retired (Claude 4 Opus and Claude 4 Sonnet, the May 2025 versions) have been removed from the model pickers; if your site had either one selected, it is automatically switched to the current equivalent (Claude Opus 4.8 or Claude Sonnet 4.6) so chat keeps working without any action from you #### 3.2.9 – June 11, 2026 * New: Claude Fable 5 — Anthropic’s newest flagship model — available in the Select AI Model picker and the Content Generator * Fixed: Claude Opus 4.7 and 4.8 now work as the Content Generator model (these models reject the temperature setting; it is no longer sent) * New: Stop button — visitors can halt a streaming response mid-answer; the text already written is kept * New: “Show Download Transcript Button” toggle to hide the chat menu’s Download Transcript item (on by default) * Improved: Settings changes now apply immediately on cached sites — MxChat purges supported page caches on save, and the chat widget fetches fresh settings when opened, so toggles no longer require clearing caches * New: “Images per Article” slider (1–5, default 3) in the Content Generator’s image settings * Fixed: Chat widget interface text no longer appears in your pages’ Google search- result snippets * Fixed: Admin navigation now displays correctly on right-to-left language sites( Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, and others) * Fixed: In-chat PDF and Word document upload works again, including for signed- in administrators * Fixed: Messages sent right after a bot reply no longer vanish on sites running the Image Analysis add-on * Fixed: The “Was this helpful?” rating prompt only appears when its setting is turned on * Fixed: Rebuilt translation template (mxchat.pot) — syncing a translation no longer discards existing translations * Fixed: PHP 8.2 deprecation notices no longer logged during chat requests #### 3.2.8 – June 4, 2026 * New: Total chatbot message limit — one cap across all users and roles per timeframe, with a live usage readout and one-click reset * New: Global and per-role rate limits accept custom values beyond the presets * Improved: Custom Provider and Azure OpenAI embeddings work end-to-end for indexing and live queries (re-index if you had this enabled) * Fixed: Feedback “Send” button no longer renders as an invisible white-on-white block #### 3.2.7 – May 29, 2026 * New: Guided onboarding wizard for first-time setup — reopen any time from Settings Tutorials * New: Claude Opus 4.8 and the Google Gemini 3.x lineup; sites on retired models are migrated automatically * Improved: First message is reliable behind full-page caches (WP Rocket, LiteSpeed, FlyingPress, W3 Total Cache, Cloudflare APO) * Improved: Streaming and standard chat retry transient provider errors before showing a failure * Improved: Floating chat button is fully keyboard-operable (WCAG 2.1 Level A) #### 3.2.6 – May 21, 2026 * New: Custom Provider (OpenAI-compatible) — point MxChat at Ollama, LM Studio, vLLM, llama.cpp, or Azure OpenAI, with a Test Connection button * New: End-of-session “Was this helpful?” satisfaction rating with admin reporting and a dashboard card * New: ACF PDF auto-indexing — PDF text from ACF file fields is extracted into the knowledge base (opt-in) * New: Image Quality control for OpenAI GPT Image in the Content Generator * New: Claude Opus 4.7, GPT-5.5, and GPT Image 2 in the model picker * New: REST bulk-delete endpoint for chat sessions and an embedding chunk-metadata filter for developers * Improved: Page-cache plugins are automatically told not to cache the chat endpoint, with a per-plugin status card * Fixed: Intermittent “Access denied” on the first chat message under full-page caching * Fixed: Print preview was blank on pages with MxChat installed #### 3.2.5 – May 12, 2026 * New: REST API with bearer-token auth — read transcripts, push knowledge, bulk- delete sessions (disabled by default) * New: Download Transcript menu item — saves the conversation as a Markdown file( replaces Print Conversation) * New: Redesigned chat-widget header with X-close icon and keyboard-accessible 3-dot menu * New: Content Generator writes SEO-title meta for Rank Math/Yoast/AIOSEO and syncs image alt text to the media library * New: Transcript retention setting (1–3650 days) with automatic daily cleanup * Fixed: Header dropdown menu inherits the bubble theme colors instead of hardcoded white #### 3.2.4 – May 3, 2026 * Fixed: WooCommerce product Short Description Visual tab broken by a script 404 * Fixed: User’s last message scrolls to the top after streaming replies #### 3.2.3 – April 29, 2026 * New: Embedding model switch protection — warning dialog and admin notice when stored embeddings don’t match the selected model * Improved: Landing Page Generator plans more sections and writes fuller copy * Fixed: Landing Page “Full Width” option honored on WordPress block themes * Fixed: Manual knowledge entries no longer cited with internal placeholder URLs #### 3.2.2 – April 21, 2026 * New: Lead Management Dashboard — deduplicated lead list with filters, top-pages analytics, CSV export, and one-click jump to conversations * Fixed: Orphaned Pinecone vectors removed when posts or products are unpublished, deleted, or renamed * Fixed: Source and chunk count settings now apply on all retrieval paths #### 3.2.1 – April 17, 2026 * Fixed: Admin Testing Tab debug panel missing similarity scores and sources when web search and streaming were both enabled * Fixed: Web search responses now save their sources to chat transcripts #### 3.2.0 – April 15, 2026 * New: mxchat_similarity_results filter hook for add-ons * Fixed: Removed attribute injection that conflicted with cache and optimization plugins #### 3.1.9 – April 7, 2026 * Fixed: “Session expired” errors caused by session-ownership issues #### 3.1.8 – April 6, 2026 * New: Admin Testing Tab — embedded chatbot replica with a real-time debug panel * New: Individual trigger-phrase embeddings for more accurate action matching * New: Loading indicator while chat initializes * Improved: “Delete All” in the Knowledge Base respects the active content-type filter #### 3.1.7 – April 1, 2026 * New: Google Drive PDF links auto-convert to direct downloads for knowledge import * Fixed: Chat history not appearing for returning visitors with persistence on and email collection off * Fixed: Lead capture form not displaying for new visitors when email collection is enabled * Fixed: Editing a legacy manual knowledge entry no longer deletes others sharing the same source URL #### 3.1.6 – March 30, 2026 * Fixed: Pre-chat popup stays dismissed for 24 hours instead of reappearing on every refresh * Fixed: Chat history not loading for returning visitors * Fixed: Links with special characters being cut off or rendered as plain text #### 3.1.5 – March 25, 2026 * New: RAG Chunks Limit setting and tuned source defaults to balance answer quality and token cost * New: Per-page chatbot visibility control from the page editor meta box * Improved: Debugger and transcripts show the actual sources and chunks used #### 3.1.4 – March 22, 2026 * New: OpenAI GPT-5.4

re-embedding * New: Sitemap import supports PDF URLs #### 3.1.3 – March 16, 2026 * New: Content Calendar tab on the Content page * New: Multi-line chat teaser pop-up messages * Improved: Session cookies deferred until first interaction — passive visitors no longer create sessions * … ## Meta * Version **3.2.18** * Last updated **2 วัน ago** * Active installations **2,000+** * WordPress
