== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Do I need Composer to use the plugin? =

No, the basic chat functionality works without Composer. However, advanced features like PDF processing require Composer dependencies. You'll see a notice in the WordPress admin if these dependencies are missing.

= How do I install Composer? =

1. Visit [getcomposer.org/download/](https://getcomposer.org/download/)
2. Follow the installation instructions for your operating system
3. After installation, run `composer install` in the plugin directory

= Which features require Composer? =

The following features require Composer dependencies:
* PDF processing and text extraction
* Advanced embeddings handling
* External API integrations
* Advanced product recommendations

All other features work without Composer.

= Do I need OpenAI keys to use Aisk.chat? =

Yes, Aisk.chat requires an OpenAI API key to function. This is because we leverage OpenAI's powerful language models to provide intelligent responses to customer inquiries. You'll need to create an OpenAI account and obtain an API key, which you'll enter in the Aisk dashboard during setup.

= Can I train Aisk from my own knowledge base? =

Absolutely. Aisk is designed to learn from your specific business content. During setup, the "Generate Embeddings" process analyzes your website pages, product descriptions, FAQs, and other content to create a customized knowledge base.

= What happens when the AI can't answer a customer's question? =

If Aisk couldn't find any answer in the provided knowledge or products, it will offer support information or ask if you would like to create a support ticket. Thus Aisk behaves super friendly when it comes to customer satisfaction and ease.
