## FAQ

### Does this plugin require an API key?

AI-powered features (content generation, AI subject lines, chatbot, SEO analysis,
social captions) require an AI provider API key. You can use Google AI Studio (Gemini)
which offers a free tier, or OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, or OpenRouter. Non-AI features
like SMTP email sending and subscriber management work without any API key.

### Which AI provider should I start with?

Google AI Studio (Gemini) is the easiest to start with — it offers a free API tier
with no credit card required. Sign up at ai.google.dev, create an API key, and paste
it into AI Marketing  Settings  AI Providers.

### Is the email marketing feature really free with unlimited subscribers?

Yes. The free tier includes unlimited subscribers and 30 campaigns per month. There
is no subscriber cap on the free plan.

### Does the chatbot work with WooCommerce?

Yes. The Pro plan allows you to index your WooCommerce product catalog into the 
chatbot knowledge base so it can answer product questions, check availability, and
assist shoppers automatically.

### Can I use multiple AI providers at the same time?

Yes. You can add multiple AI provider connections and assign different providers
to different modules — for example, GPT-4o for content generation and Claude for
your chatbot.

### Will this plugin slow down my website?

No. All AI calls and email sending happen in the WordPress admin or via background
WP-Cron jobs. The only front-end asset is the optional chatbot widget, which loads
asynchronously.

### Does the social media scheduler support LinkedIn?

Yes. The social scheduler supports LinkedIn personal profiles and company pages 
alongside Facebook Pages, Instagram Business, and X (Twitter).

### Is my data secure?

Yes. All API keys and SMTP credentials are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM authenticated
encryption. No subscriber data or conversation data is ever sent to third parties.
Email tracking uses HMAC-signed URLs to prevent open redirect abuse.

### Can I import existing email subscribers?

Yes. You can import subscribers from a CSV file, sync from WordPress registered 
users, or import WooCommerce customers.

### Where can I get support?

Visit [wordpress.org/support/plugin/ai-marketing-expert/](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ai-marketing-expert/)
for documentation and support.

 [DotTheme](https://profiles.wordpress.org/dottheme/) August 9, 2026

I've been using AI Marketing Expert for my email campaigns, and it's been fantastic.
I recently ran into a minor bug where sent emails were counting twice during progress
tracking. I posted about it in the support forum, and the plugin developer (Noor
Alam) investigated and released a fix in version 1.2.0 in less than a week. Great
features, steady improvements, and top-tier support. Highly recommended!

 * Improved: Facebook Publishing & Error #200 Hints — Explicit actionable guidance
   for Facebook permissions (pages_manage_posts, pages_read_engagement), Page Access
   Token detection, and separated Instagram validation.
 * New: AI Chatbot Safe Product Links & Configurable Buy Now — Product recommendations
   now default safely to direct product page permalinks to prevent empty cart errors
   on stores without cart AJAX endpoints, with an optional “Direct Checkout / Buy
   Now Link” toggle in bot settings for stores preferring direct checkout.
 * Improved: AI Chatbot Pro Branding — “Powered by AI Marketing Expert” footer dynamically
   links to the site’s home URL for Pro users while retaining plugin branding on
   Free installations.
 * Fixed: Email Campaign Sending & 500 Error — Resolved a critical fatal error in
   the campaign queue processor where missing web-view helper caused campaigns to
   get stuck in “sending” state with HTTP 500.
 * New: Email Web-View Browser Display — Added dedicated web-view handler (?aime_track
   =web_view) allowing recipients to view rich email designs directly in their browser.
 * Improved: Email Sender Resilience — Added defensive parameter validation and 
   error boundaries in campaign dispatcher so invalid recipient addresses or transient
   SMTP timeouts fail gracefully without stalling the entire batch.

#### 1.2.5

 * New: B2B Lead Finder & Autopilot Pipeline — Discover, filter, and extract high-
   converting B2B prospects by role, industry, location, and company size with 1-
   click list collection and recurring autopilot sync.
 * New: LinkedIn Publishing & OAuth — Connect LinkedIn personal and organization
   accounts to schedule and publish AI-generated business updates and articles directly.
 * New: Social Auto-Share on Publish — Automatically generate tailored AI captions
   and schedule social posts across connected channels whenever a blog post or WooCommerce
   product is published.
 * New: 1-Click direct deep linking from the WordPress dashboard widget into specific
   AI Chatbot conversation threads.
 * New: Interactive “Take Over” action link directly inside the conversation view
   notice to immediately enable human agent takeover.
 * Improved: Chatbot conversation list table now features clickable visitor links
   and full row cursor affordances.
 * Fixed: Sidebar navigation now properly maintains the active state on “Conversations”
   when navigating into a single conversation.
 * New: Built-in IMAP bounce processing service for automated email marketing deliverability
   and list hygiene.
 * Improved: Lead Finder UX with responsive search filters, clean custom query layout,
   and direct Cold Outreach funnel integration.
 * Improved: Database Hygiene & Pruning now uses accessible in-app modal dialogs
   instead of browser confirm prompts with accurate record count reporting.
 * Improved: Added Send Email action support within Workflow Automation.

#### 1.2.4

 * Fixed: React crash (Minified React Error #31) on the Subscribers page when tags
   or list objects contained non-string elements.
 * Fixed: Webhook subscriber rate limiting now allows authenticated API key requests
   without hitting false 429 errors during bulk syncs or external integration imports.
 * Improved: Defensive pivot data resolution in subscriber REST API to skip orphaned
   or malformed tag and list relations.
 * Improved: Added `aime_webhook_rate_limit` filter for customizable webhook rate
   limits.
 * Compatibility: Tested up to WordPress 7.1.

#### 1.2.3

 * New: AI Brain Skills — reusable rule blocks (SEO Strategist, Readability Coach
   free; Image Director, Link Planner, WordPress Expert, Social Hook Writer plus
   custom skills on Pro) merged into the strategist prompt; Skill library popup 
   and per-workflow selection.
 * New: Universal SEO contract for generated posts — AI Brain now outputs focus 
   keyword, SEO title, meta description, short slug and image queries; the writer
   enforces keyword placement, TOC, link minimums and keyword image alts so RankMath/
   Yoast score green.
 * New: Global SEO adapter — canonical SEO store synced to Yoast, Rank Math, All
   in One SEO, SEOPress, Slim SEO and The SEO Framework, with aime_seo_sync hook
   for any other plugin; lightweight frontend meta fallback when no SEO plugin is
   active.
 * New: Stock image controls — landscape orientation filter, automatic portrait 
   skipping, duplicate avoidance within a configurable reuse window (new usage log
   table), and max-width display hardening.
 * Fixed: generated article body no longer repeats the post title as a leading heading(
   single-H1 rule with prompt + automatic stripping on generate, save and publish
   paths).
 * Improved: Prompt library and Skill library are now separate single-purpose popups;
   skill selection lives only in the popup with a compact sidebar summary.
 * Improved: workflow blog posts auto-generate meta title/description (previously
   only manual generation did) and use short keyword slugs under 75 characters.

#### 1.2.2

 * New: Prompt Library — browse professionally written starting points for the AI
   Brain strategy prompt, Custom AI Prompt step and a new blog “Writing brief” field;
   pick one and edit freely.
 * New: Generate Blog Post step now supports multiple categories (multi-select with
   search) and an optional writing brief with its own prompt library.
 * New: Enroll in Funnel step can add contacts to Lists and Tags, and can create
   the contact automatically when the email is new.
 * New: clickable {token} chips under token-capable fields (Custom Prompt, notification
   and campaign fields) so dynamic values are easy to discover.
 * New: Dashboard widget footer with Help and Go Pro links.
 * Fixed: social posts scheduled from a device in a different timezone could publish
   hours early or late — schedule times are now converted to the site timezone.
 * Fixed: social posts that crashed mid-publish no longer stay stuck forever; the
   queue reclaims them and gives up cleanly after 3 attempts.
 * Fixed: Facebook publishing and OAuth unified on Graph API v25.0, and manual Facebook
   connections now request all required Page permissions.
 * Fixed: scheduled articles in the Content Generator could publish early when the
   server timezone differed from the site timezone.
 * Fixed: bulk-deleting articles in the Content Generator now also deletes their
   published WordPress posts instead of leaving them live.
 * Fixed: a failed article save no longer returns a phantom empty article; the real
   database error is shown.
 * Fixed: workflow templates now open the step that still needs setup (e.g. picking
   a funnel) right after applying.
 * Fixed: legacy single-category selections remain visible and editable after the
   multi-category upgrade.
 * Improved: word count default for generated posts is now 1500; AI Brain URL cache
   default extended to 30 days.
 * Improved: free-tier ad-copy runs log clearly when WooCommerce product rotation(
   Pro) is skipped.
 * Improved: AI Brain custom JSON output now uses provider-native structured output(
   JSON schema), so the model returns the brief in a guaranteed shape instead of
   free-form text that had to be parsed.
 * Fixed: reasoning models (for example muse-spark-1.2, DeepSeek R1, o-series) leaked
   their internal thinking text into AI Brain custom JSON output, which could break
   the JSON or produce an empty topic.
 * Fixed: models that return their answer in a separate reasoning field are now 
   read correctly on OpenAI, OpenRouter and custom OpenAI-compatible connections,
   instead of being treated as an empty response.
 * Improved: JSON recovery is more robust when a provider does not support structured
   output — leftover reasoning text before the JSON is stripped and the JSON is 
   located by structure rather than by known phrases, so new models work without
   plugin updates.

#### 1.2.1

 * Fixed: Email Footer issue
 * Fixed: Email A/B Test Subject B loading spinner
 * Fixed: chatbot Now only counts actual visitor messages.
 * Fixed: Automation double email bug issue fixed
 * Fixed: chatbot widget not displaying on mobile devices due to CSS transform breaking
   position:fixed full-screen layout.
 * Added: translate .pot file

#### 1.2.0

 * New: Workflow Automation module for connecting and orchestrating marketing tasks.
 * New: stock image support in the Content Generator module.
 * New: API token and usage price counters.
 * New: multi-provider continuation — when an AI provider stops mid-article (token
   cap or rate limit), the next connected provider finishes the remaining part instead
   of the whole generation failing. Sites with a single connection retry the same
   provider after its cooldown during background runs.
 * Improved: truncated AI responses are now detected (Google, OpenAI, OpenRouter,
   Anthropic, custom providers) instead of being saved as half-written articles.
 * Improved: redesigned dashboard and module UI.
 * Improved: smooth loading animations throughout the admin interface.
 * Fixed: various issues and errors in all Modules.

#### 1.1.1

 * Fixed: campaign recipient count could double mid-send under concurrent processing(
   duplicate emails). Added a unique constraint on the send queue and a one-time
   de-duplication migration.
 * Fixed: paused campaigns that were still resolving their audience could not be
   paused reliably.
 * New: “End Campaign” button to fully stop an in-progress campaign and view its
   final status.
 * New (Pro): provider feedback-loop webhooks to auto-move spam complaints to the
   Complaint list and hard bounces to the Bounced list.
    Point your ESP (Amazon 
   SES via SNS, SendGrid, Mailgun, Postmark) at:
    - Complaints: POST {site}/wp-json/aime/v1/email/webhook/complaint
    - Bounces: POST {site}/wp-json/aime/v1/email/webhook/bounce
       Authenticate with
      your API key (generate under Settings  API), body: { “email”: “user@example.
      com” } or { “emails”: [“a@x.com”,”b@y.com”] }.
 * Improved: added List-Unsubscribe-Post (one-click unsubscribe) header for better
   deliverability.
