== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= What AI providers are supported? =

AIOHM supports OpenAI (GPT-3.5, GPT-4), Google Gemini Pro, Anthropic Claude, and Ollama for self-hosted models. You only need one API key to get started.

= How is this different from other chatbot plugins? =

AIOHM is the only WordPress plugin offering true dual-mode functionality: a public chatbot trained on your approved content AND a private AI assistant with access to confidential materials. Plus, it captures and reflects your actual writing style.

= Do I need coding skills? =

None at all! Everything is managed through your WordPress dashboard with simple point-and-click interfaces. The most technical thing you'll do is copy-paste a shortcode.

= Will this slow down my website? =

No. AI processing happens on external servers (OpenAI, Claude, etc.), not your website. The plugin is optimized for performance with smart caching and minimal resource usage.

= How does the privacy mode work? =

Private mode content is completely separate from public content. Only logged-in users with proper permissions can access private AI features. Your confidential documents are never visible to public users.

= Can I customize the appearance? =

Yes! The plugin includes comprehensive CSS customization options, supports theme integration, and provides responsive design that works on all devices.

= What file types are supported? =

WordPress posts/pages, PDF documents, CSV files, TXT files, and JSON data. The plugin intelligently extracts and processes content from each format.

= Is my data secure? =

Absolutely. API keys are encrypted, all database operations use prepared statements, and the plugin follows WordPress security best practices. Your data stays on your server except when sent to AI providers for processing.

= Can I restrict access to the private assistant? =

Yes! The plugin integrates with Paid Memberships Pro and supports custom user roles. You have complete control over who can access private AI features.

= What happens if the AI doesn't know something? =

The AI will politely indicate when it doesn't have enough information and direct users to contact you directly. It won't make up answers or use outdated internet information.

= How do I get support? =

Visit the WordPress.org support forum for community help, or contact support@aiohm.app for direct assistance. We also provide comprehensive documentation and video tutorials.

= Is there a free trial? =

The plugin itself is free. You'll need an API key from supported providers (OpenAI, Claude, etc.), most of which offer free credits to get started.
