Install

No release zip yet. The repository archive installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow:

wp plugin install https://github.com/protorox/ats-ai-live-chat-wordpress/archive/refs/heads/main.zip

Ships its own WordPress updater (built-in updater), so new versions show up under Dashboard → Updates.

GitHub Updates

This plugin can update from GitHub releases when it is installed as the ats-ai-live-chat-wordpress plugin folder in WordPress.

How it works:

  • WordPress checks the latest GitHub release for protorox/ats-ai-live-chat-wordpress.
  • The plugin looks for a release asset named ats-ai-live-chat-wordpress.zip.
  • If the release version is newer than the installed plugin version, WordPress can update it.

Release process:

  1. Bump the Version in ats-ai-live-chat.php.
  2. Commit and push to main.
  3. Create and push a tag matching the plugin version, for example v1.0.2.
  4. GitHub Actions builds ats-ai-live-chat-wordpress.zip and attaches it to the release.

Example:

git tag v1.0.2
git push origin main --tags

Optional private-repo support in wp-config.php:

define( 'ATSLC_GITHUB_TOKEN', 'github_token_here' );
define( 'ATSLC_GITHUB_REPO_OVERRIDE', 'your-user/your-private-repo' );
