Free multilingual website chat with No API Basic, WordPress/WooCommerce knowledge and optional self-hosted Ollama.

== Description ==

**DSOLNEX AI Chat** by Designsolution Bangladesh is a free WordPress chatbot that can answer basic questions from published website content and WooCommerce products without requiring a paid AI API.

Free Edition includes:

* **No API Basic** — deterministic local website/product lookup without an external commercial AI API key.
* **Website Knowledge** — basic lookup from indexed published WordPress content.
* **WooCommerce Search** — basic product, category and budget search when WooCommerce is active.
* **Ollama Local** — connect an Ollama-compatible endpoint reachable from the WordPress server.
* **16 built-in local language modules** — English, Bangla, Banglish, Hindi, Urdu, Arabic, Chinese, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Turkish, Indonesian and Malay.
* Optional floating chatbot, shortcode, UI customization and security controls included in the Free build.

The Free Edition has no license-key activation form. All functionality included in this package is free and usable without payment.

A separate paid add-on, **DSOLNEX AI Chat Pro**, is available from:
https://www.designsolutionbd.net/downloads/dsolnex-ai-chat-pro/

The separate Pro package can add DSOLNEX Smart Engine, advanced context/recommendation features and optional Bring-Your-Own-Key integrations for OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic, DeepSeek and Together AI. Those premium implementations are not included in this WordPress.org Free package.

= Ollama =

Ollama is optional. The configured endpoint must be reachable from the server running WordPress. A URL such as `http://localhost:11434` refers to the WordPress server itself, not the website visitor's computer.

= Shortcodes =

* `[dsolnex_chat]` — main chatbot.
* `[dsolnex_product_chat]` — WooCommerce product Q&A where available.
* `[dsolnex_product_finder]` — product finder where available.
* `[dsolnex_order_chat]` — order assistant where available.
* `[dsolnex_return_chat]` — return workflow where available.

= Privacy and External Connections =

No API Basic performs its core lookup locally in WordPress/WooCommerce. When an administrator chooses Ollama, chat data needed for the request is sent only to the Ollama-compatible endpoint configured by that administrator. If an administrator configures the optional Webhook feature, the completed chat payload is sent to that administrator-specified webhook URL. These connections are opt-in configuration choices. DSOLNEX AI Chat Free does not require a DSOLNEX license server connection and does not send usage telemetry to Designsolution Bangladesh.

Ollama information and policies (relevant when an administrator chooses Ollama software/services):

* Terms of Service: https://ollama.com/terms
* Privacy Policy: https://ollama.com/privacy

If the administrator points the plugin at a different self-hosted or third-party Ollama-compatible endpoint, that endpoint is controlled by the administrator/third party and its own terms and privacy practices apply.

2. Open **DSOLNEX AI Chat → Settings**.
3. Use **No API Basic** immediately, or configure an optional Ollama endpoint.
4. Build/index website knowledge if required by your setup.
