BKiAI KI Chatbot

Registro de cambios

3.5.0

• Added semantic search powered by OpenAI embeddings. The chatbot now finds relevant information in knowledge files based on meaning, not just keywords. Questions like "how much does it cost?" now correctly match content about "Preis" or "Gebühr" even without shared words.
• Added automatic background migration for existing knowledge files. When the plugin is updated, embeddings for already-uploaded files are generated via WP-Cron without blocking the admin.
• Added intelligent Markdown chunker that understands escaped Markdown syntax from Word/Google Docs exports, detects pseudo-headings, tracks heading hierarchy, and enriches each chunk with its section context for significantly better retrieval quality.
• Added keyword-fallback: if the OpenAI embeddings API is temporarily unavailable, the chatbot automatically falls back to the previous keyword-based search. No downtime for visitors.
• Added status badges per knowledge file in admin (ready / preparing / no semantic search).
• Added help popup with structuring guidelines and a downloadable example knowledge file (hair salon template).
• Added debug mode via ?bkiai_debug=1 URL parameter (admins only) for troubleshooting bot answers.
• Added dashboard widget showing indexed files, chunks, and search status.
• Added new database table {prefix}_bkiai_embeddings to store vector data. Automatically created on plugin activation, removed on uninstall.

3.4.0

• Fixed: The shortcode [bkiai_chat bot="1"] now works correctly in the Gutenberg block editor and on Full Site Editing (FSE) block themes (Twenty Twenty-Three/Four/Five and similar). Previously the chat rendered its markup but produced a bkiaiChatConfig is not defined JavaScript error on page load, and the input field could not send messages. Root cause: on block-based rendering the shortcode runs after the normal script-enqueue phase, so wp_localize_script() was ignored. The shortcode now outputs its JavaScript configuration as an inline script directly before the chat markup, which works reliably with any theme and page builder.
• Fixed: Frontend assets are now loaded whenever Bot 1 is enabled, not only when popup mode is active. This allows the shortcode to be used on any page without first enabling popup mode.
• Added explicit 10 MB upload limit per knowledge file in the free edition. Larger files are rejected with a clear admin notice that names the file and the limit, so the reason is transparent.
• Added memory-safety guard for knowledge-file reading: files larger than the plugin can safely process in the current PHP memory limit are skipped rather than triggering an out-of-memory crash.
• Improved knowledge-file retrieval: intent-aware ranking now boosts matching chunks when the visitor asks for a summary, a list, or a specific section. Heading-aware chunking, bullet-list detection, and first-chunk summary priority make answers more on-point without any configuration.
• Markdown auto-detection: files saved as .txt but containing Markdown headings are now chunked with the Markdown chunker automatically, producing better section-level retrieval for knowledge articles.
• Admin: upgrade links now point to the current BKiAI Chat sales page and pre-select the Pro 1-website variant in the EDD shopping cart, reducing friction on the upgrade path.
• Admin: remaining German strings in the upgrade box (header, button labels, description) translated to English for consistent UI.
• Added German translation (bkiai-chat-de_DE.po/.mo) covering all current admin strings. The plugin now automatically displays in German when the WordPress site language is set to German.
• Internal: plugin version constant (BKIAI_CHAT_FREE_VERSION) synchronised with the plugin header so that browser cache-busting for CSS/JS works correctly on updates.
