<p><strong>Turn your WordPress site into a global community.</strong></p>
<p>Got visitors from different countries who don’t share a common language? With Akukita Chat, an English speaker and a Spanish speaker can hold a natural conversation — each one reads and writes in their own language. The translation is instant, invisible, and cached so it never slows down.</p>
<p>No API keys, no monthly fees, no configuration headaches. Drop a shortcode on any page and you have a multilingual chat running in under 60 seconds.</p>
<h4>Why people install Akukita Chat</h4>
<ul>
<li>🧙 <strong>Guided setup in 60 seconds</strong> — A built-in setup wizard runs the moment you activate the plugin: pick your translation engine, get a ready-to-use chat page automatically created for you, and you’re done.</li>
<li>👥 <strong>Open the chat to anyone (no account required)</strong> — Switch on guest mode and visitors join with just a display name and a language. Perfect for public communities, support chats and landing pages. Spam protection (rate limiting, length limits and a honeypot) is always on.</li>
<li>🌍 <strong>70+ languages, zero configuration</strong> — Works out of the box with the free MyMemory provider. No registration, no credit card.</li>
<li>💬 <strong>Multi-room chat</strong> — Create as many topic-based rooms as you want from the admin dashboard.</li>
<li>⚡ <strong>Real-time</strong> — Messages appear instantly, no page reload.</li>
<li>🧠 <strong>3 translation engines</strong> — Free (MyMemory), high-quality (DeepL), or premium AI (OpenAI GPT-4o-mini). You choose.</li>
<li>🚀 <strong>Smart caching</strong> — Each phrase is translated once, then served instantly to everyone. Saves quota and lightens server load.</li>
<li>📱 <strong>Beautiful on mobile</strong> — Dark-glass responsive UI that looks polished on phones and desktop.</li>
<li>🔐 <strong>Admin-controlled</strong> — Only administrators create rooms, so the conversation stays moderated by design.</li>
<li>🇪🇺 <strong>GDPR-ready</strong> — Privacy policy auto-generated, message retention configurable, no data leaves your DB except the text being translated.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Perfect for</h4>
<ul>
<li>International communities and forums</li>
<li>Language exchange and learning sites</li>
<li>Multilingual e-commerce stores with WooCommerce</li>
<li>Travel, expat and digital-nomad communities</li>
<li>Online courses with students from multiple countries</li>
<li>SaaS support chats serving customers worldwide</li>
</ul>
<h4>How it works</h4>
<ol>
<li>Install and activate the plugin.</li>
<li>The setup wizard opens automatically and asks two quick questions: which translation engine you want and where to place the chat. It then creates a ready-to-use chat page for you.</li>
<li>(Optional) Decide who can chat in <strong>Akukita Chat <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Who can chat</strong>: only logged-in users (default), anyone with a display name (guest mode), or visitors who first create a WordPress account.</li>
<li>Share the chat URL with your audience. That’s it.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Shortcodes</h4>
<pre><code>[akukita_chat]                     Full chat widget with room sidebar
[akukita_chat height="700"]        Custom height in pixels
[akukita_chat_room id="1"]         Embed a specific room
</code></pre>
<h4>Translation Providers</h4>
<p>You choose which one to use, and you can switch any time without losing your chat history:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>MyMemory (default)</strong> — 100% free, no API key. 5,000 words/day per IP, or 50,000/day if you add your email in Settings.</li>
<li><strong>DeepL Free</strong> — Best European-language quality. 500,000 characters/month with a free DeepL API key.</li>
<li><strong>OpenAI GPT-4o-mini</strong> — State-of-the-art translation quality including idiomatic and informal language. Requires a paid OpenAI API key. Costs are minimal (~$0.15 per 1M input tokens).</li>
</ol>
<p>If the API ever goes down, the original message is shown as-is — your chat keeps working.</p>

<h4>Built by Akukita</h4>
<p>Akukita is a Spanish software studio focused on building tools that connect people across languages. Mario Simón Melchor leads development.

<h3>External services</h3>
<p>Akukita Chat connects to third-party translation APIs to translate chat messages. Each provider is opt-in and configured by you in <strong>Akukita Chat <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Settings</strong>. No data is sent unless you enable a provider and a user posts a message.</p>
<p><strong>1. MyMemory / Translated.net</strong> (default — no API key needed)<br />
Only the text of each chat message is sent. No user identifiers, emails or WordPress data are transmitted.</p>
<ul>
<li>Service URL: https://mymemory.translated.net</li>
<li>Terms of Service: https://mymemory.translated.net/terms-and-conditions</li>
<li>Privacy Policy: https://translated.com/confidentiality</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>2. DeepL API</strong> (optional — requires API key)<br />
Only message text is sent.</p>
<ul>
<li>Service URL: https://www.deepl.com</li>
<li>Terms of Service: https://www.deepl.com/pro-license</li>
<li>Privacy Policy: https://www.deepl.com/privacy</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>3. OpenAI API</strong> (optional — requires API key)<br />
Only message text is sent to the GPT model.</p>
<ul>
<li>Service URL: https://openai.com</li>
<li>Terms of Service: https://openai.com/policies/row-terms-of-use/</li>
<li>Privacy Policy: https://openai.com/policies/row-privacy-policy/</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>4. Deactivation feedback</strong> (optional — only when you submit it)<br />
When you deactivate the plugin, an optional form asks why. If — and only if — you fill it in and click “Submit & deactivate”, the reason you select, any comment you type, and a reply email (only if you choose to provide one) are emailed to the plugin developer at akukita.es. Choosing “Skip & deactivate” sends nothing. No site URL beyond the standard email signature, and no other site or admin data, is collected.</p>
<ul>
<li>Developer: https://akukita.es</li>
</ul>
<h3>Privacy</h3>
<p>Akukita Chat stores all chat messages in your own WordPress database. The plugin uses <code>wp_add_privacy_policy_content()</code> to automatically suggest privacy text for your site’s policy page (visible in <strong>Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Privacy</strong>). You control the message retention period from the plugin settings.</p>
