External Services

Ollama

If you configure an Ollama URL (default: http://localhost:11434), the plugin sends conversation
messages to that server to generate responses. Ollama runs locally or on a server you control —
no data is sent to third parties when using Ollama.

DeepSeek API

If you configure a DeepSeek API key, the plugin sends conversation messages to the DeepSeek API
to generate responses. This service is optional — you can use Ollama locally instead.

  • Data sent: the system prompt (built from your site content) and the visitor’s messages
  • When: only when a visitor sends a message in the chat and DeepSeek is selected as the provider
  • Provider: DeepSeek (https://deepseek.com)
  • Terms of Service: https://www.deepseek.com/terms
  • Privacy Policy: https://www.deepseek.com/privacy

Installatie

  1. Upload the knowchatbot folder to /wp-content/plugins/
  2. Activate the plugin through the WordPress Plugins menu
  3. Go to Settings > KnowChatBot and configure your Ollama URL or DeepSeek API key

FAQ

Do I need an external service?

For Ollama, you only need a local or VPS-hosted Ollama instance — no external service required.

Does the chat store conversations?

Yes, conversations are saved in a protected log file accessible only from the admin panel.

Can I change the bot name and avatar?

Yes. Both are fully customizable in the plugin settings at no cost.
