Turn your WordPress site into a global community.
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.
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.
<h4>Why people install Akukita Chat</h4>
<ul>
<li>🧙 Guided setup in 60 seconds — 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>👥 Open the chat to anyone (no account required) — 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>🌍 70+ languages, zero configuration — Works out of the box with the free MyMemory provider. No registration, no credit card.</li>
<li>💬 Multi-room chat — Create as many topic-based rooms as you want from the admin dashboard.</li>
<li>⚡ Real-time — Messages appear instantly, no page reload.</li>
<li>🧠 3 translation engines — Free (MyMemory), high-quality (DeepL), or premium AI (OpenAI GPT-4o-mini). You choose.</li>
<li>🚀 Smart caching — Each phrase is translated once, then served instantly to everyone. Saves quota and lightens server load.</li>
<li>📱 Beautiful on mobile — Dark-glass responsive UI that looks polished on phones and desktop.</li>
<li>🔐 Admin-controlled — Only administrators create rooms, so the conversation stays moderated by design.</li>
<li>🇪🇺 GDPR-ready — 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 Akukita Chat → Settings → Who can chat: 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>
You choose which one to use, and you can switch any time without losing your chat history:
<ol>
<li>MyMemory (default) — 100% free, no API key. 5,000 words/day per IP, or 50,000/day if you add your email in Settings.</li>
<li>DeepL Free — Best European-language quality. 500,000 characters/month with a free DeepL API key.</li>
<li>OpenAI GPT-4o-mini — 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>
If the API ever goes down, the original message is shown as-is — your chat keeps working.

<h3>External services</h3>
Akukita Chat connects to third-party translation APIs to translate chat messages. Each provider is opt-in and configured by you in Akukita Chat → Settings. No data is sent unless you enable a provider and a user posts a message.
1. MyMemory / Translated.net (default — no API key needed) 
Only the text of each chat message is sent. No user identifiers, emails or WordPress data are transmitted.
<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>
2. DeepL API (optional — requires API key) 
Only message text is sent.
<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>
3. OpenAI API (optional — requires API key) 
Only message text is sent to the GPT model.
<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>
4. Deactivation feedback (optional — only when you submit it) 
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.
<ul>
<li>Developer: https://akukita.es</li>
</ul>
<h3>Privacy</h3>
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 Settings → Privacy). You control the message retention period from the plugin settings.
