What You Get:

• One Row Per Lead — emails captured across multiple sessions are automatically deduplicated, so each lead appears once with a conversation count and a "last seen" timestamp
• Top Pages Capturing Leads — instantly see which pages on your site are driving the most lead captures; click any page to filter the list to leads from that page only
• Powerful Filtering — search by email or name, filter by date range (24h / 7d / 30d / 90d / all-time), or filter by status (leads with a conversation vs. orphan leads who submitted the form but never chatted)
• Orphan Lead Tracking — visitors who drop their email in the pre-chat form but never send a message are surfaced separately so you never lose a captured contact
• One-Click View Conversation — jump from any lead straight into their latest full conversation in the transcripts viewer
• Bulk Delete + CSV Export — select multiple leads to delete or export in one action; CSV export supports email-only or email + name + conversation count + last-seen + top page
• Clean, Responsive, Native — works beautifully on desktop, tablet, and phone with the same polished dashboard feel as the rest of MxChat
• Zero Setup, Zero Migration — uses your existing chat data, no new database tables, no configuration — turn on lead capture and the dashboard just works

Perfect for sales teams managing inbound leads, agencies reporting to clients, and anyone who wants to see the actual ROI of their chatbot at a glance without digging through individual conversations.

3.2.13 - July 10, 2026

• New: Claude Sonnet 5 is now selectable as both a chat model and a content generation model.
• New: The Knowledge Base Custom Post Meta section can scan your content and suggest custom meta keys as clickable options, so you can add non-ACF meta to the embedding whitelist without knowing the exact key names.
• Fixed: Knowledge Base imports of PDFs and web pages no longer fail with a 403 error on firewall-protected hosts (SiteGround, Wordfence, Cloudflare) — MXChat now identifies itself with an honest, versioned MXChatBot user agent you can allowlist if needed.
• Fixed: PDFs a visitor links in a live chat now use the same MXChatBot identity, so a firewall that allowlists MXChatBot lets them through too.
• Fixed: The close button on the pre-chat greeting bubble now works on chatbots with a custom bot ID, including Multi-Bot setups, not just the default chatbot.
• Improved: The Custom Post Meta help text now points to the built-in key scanner and notes that array and repeater values are flattened during embedding.

3.2.12 - June 30, 2026

• Fixed: Resolved a WordPress.org packaging issue from the previous release that could cause the update to fail to download or appear to hang in the WordPress dashboard on some sites. This maintenance release republishes the plugin so every site can update normally and receive the recent improvements from 3.2.11 — including the per-provider Test API key buttons, built-in WPML and Polylang translation for the chat widget, Google Gemini web search, the optional Max Input Length character counter, cleaner Slack live-agent links, the Knowledge View indexed content panel, and the security and Pinecone matching fixes. No functional changes from 3.2.11; no settings or data are affected.

3.2.11 - June 29, 2026

• New: Each AI provider API key field (OpenAI, X.AI, Claude, DeepSeek, Google Gemini, OpenRouter) now has a Test key button that checks whether the key actually works in one click, so you can confirm a key is valid right after pasting it instead of finding out only when a chat fails. It runs a quick, free validation check and never spends credits.
• Fixed: When restricting knowledge by tag under Knowledge then Role Restrictions, you can now enter a tag by its display name or its slug. Previously only the exact slug worked, so typing a real tag's name returned a confusing error; the field is now labeled Tag (name or slug) and gives an actionable message when no matching tag exists.
• Fixed: On sites using Pinecone for knowledge, answers added directly through Knowledge then Import Options then Direct Content (manual entries with no source link) are now used by the chatbot when they are the best match. Previously the bot could reply that it did not have the information even though the manual entry clearly matched, and the testing panel showed zero sources used; both are now correct.
• New: Built-in WPML and Polylang compatibility for the chat widget text. The widget's visible strings (top bar title, greeting, AI agent label, input placeholder, the email and name capture form copy, and the satisfaction prompts) now show up automatically in WPML String Translation, so you can translate the widget into each language without registering every field by hand.
• New: Optional Max Input Length setting caps how many characters a visitor can type or paste into a single message, so you can stop overly long pastes from being sent to the AI. It sits just below the Input Placeholder option in the chatbot settings. Leave it at 0 for unlimited, which is the default and keeps existing behavior unchanged.
• Fixed: Security hardening for the chat intro message setting, following a Wordfence advisory. The intro message is now escaped when shown on the settings page and sanitized when saved, so a crafted value can no longer run script in the admin area on multisite sites or sites where unfiltered HTML is disabled.
• Fixed: When a live agent replies from Slack with a link, the website visitor now sees a clean, clickable link instead of Slack's raw formatting with a stray closing bracket. Slack user and channel mentions and escaped characters are also tidied up before the message reaches the visitor.
• New: The Slack live-agent channel now shows the visitor's name and email at the top of the conversation when they were captured at the start of the chat, so your agent can see who they are talking to instead of just a session ID and a user ID of zero for guests.
• Improved: When a maximum message length is set, the chat box now shows a small live character counter as the visitor nears the limit, ramping from a neutral color to amber to red, with a gentle nudge if they reach the cap. This replaces the old behavior where typing past the limit silently did nothing and looked broken. The counter uses only numbers, so it reads correctly on sites in any language.
• New: When the built-in Web Search option is on, chatbots using a Google Gemini model now answer using live Google Search results, just like OpenAI models already do. Previously the Web Search setting only affected OpenAI models and silently did nothing for Gemini, so Gemini users had to add the separate Perplexity add-on to get web-grounded answers. Gemini's built-in search uses the Google API key you already configured, at no extra cost.
• New: Each Knowledge entry now has a View indexed content button that opens a read-only panel showing exactly what the chatbot indexed for it: the stored text broken into the same chunks the search uses, each chunk's length, and for Pinecone the stored metadata fields. This makes it easy to confirm what was actually saved and searched for a page or a manual entry, so you can tell at a glance why a piece of content is or is not being matched, without changing anything.

3.2.10 - June 19, 2026

• New: AI Tools (function calling) — the chatbot can now decide on its own when to use your enabled tools, such as web search, image generation, answering from an uploaded PDF, and active add-on actions like WooCommerce, straight from natural language with no trigger phrases to set up. Turn it on under Actions then AI Tools (off by default; needs a tool-capable AI model), add the tools you want with a guided picker, and optionally tell the assistant in plain language when to use each one. Tools that spend money, expose customer data, or hand off to a human stay off until you enable them deliberately
• New: Optional "Start new chat" button in the chat window menu — lets visitors clear the current conversation and start fresh in one click, without turning off chat persistence (off by default; enable it under Chatbot then Display, with a customizable label)
• Improved: The Actions area is clearer — the original phrase-matching system is now called Trigger Phrases and sits alongside AI Tools under one Actions menu, with AI Tools listed first as the recommended path and a plain-language explainer of when to use each
• Improved: Readable, leak-safe AI error messages now cover every provider (Claude, OpenAI, xAI, Google Gemini, DeepSeek and OpenRouter) for both API errors and connection or timeout failures — site admins get an actionable hint such as choosing another model in Settings, while visitors only ever see a friendly fallback and never raw API or network details
• Improved: Applying or changing an AI theme, and toggling Pinecone, now auto-clears supported page caches the same way other settings changes do — no more stale widget appearance after a theme change
• Fixed: On multi-bot sites, non-streaming replies now correctly use the bot assigned to the visitor's session instead of falling back to the default bot's prompt and knowledge, and a repeated PHP notice in the debug log is gone
• Fixed: Images created with the Gemini image generator now display correctly in the chat window — previously the bot reported it had made an image but nothing appeared, because the file was saved with the wrong file type
• Fixed: The Slack live-agent setup notice in Settings now links to the current setup guide on the MxChat Core documentation page
• Fixed: Two older Claude models that Anthropic has now retired (Claude 4 Opus and Claude 4 Sonnet, the May 2025 versions) have been removed from the model pickers; if your site had either one selected, it is automatically switched to the current equivalent (Claude Opus 4.8 or Claude Sonnet 4.6) so chat keeps working without any action from you

3.2.9 - June 11, 2026

• New: Claude Fable 5 — Anthropic's newest flagship model — available in the Select AI Model picker and the Content Generator
• Fixed: Claude Opus 4.7 and 4.8 now work as the Content Generator model (these models reject the temperature setting; it is no longer sent)
• New: Stop button — visitors can halt a streaming response mid-answer; the text already written is kept
• New: "Show Download Transcript Button" toggle to hide the chat menu's Download Transcript item (on by default)
• Improved: Settings changes now apply immediately on cached sites — MxChat purges supported page caches on save, and the chat widget fetches fresh settings when opened, so toggles no longer require clearing caches
• New: "Images per Article" slider (1–5, default 3) in the Content Generator's image settings
• Fixed: Chat widget interface text no longer appears in your pages' Google search-result snippets
• Fixed: Admin navigation now displays correctly on right-to-left language sites (Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, and others)
• Fixed: In-chat PDF and Word document upload works again, including for signed-in administrators
• Fixed: Messages sent right after a bot reply no longer vanish on sites running the Image Analysis add-on
• Fixed: The "Was this helpful?" rating prompt only appears when its setting is turned on
• Fixed: Rebuilt translation template (mxchat.pot) — syncing a translation no longer discards existing translations
• Fixed: PHP 8.2 deprecation notices no longer logged during chat requests
