Hello Johnathan,

Thanks for sharing the link to Toms Guide.

Yes, I was experiencing the same issues yesterday.

Here’s the link to the OpenAI Status page.

its still happening and repeatable so I can say….

tell me how play a violin and I get the OpenAI technical message

but if I say ..

tell me how to play a fiddle then I’ll get feedback from the plugin.

Hello Johnathan,

This is a bit baffling.

Assuming you’re using the latest release – ver 2.0.3 – go to Chatbot Setting, then the Message tab.

Set “Chatbot Diagnostics” to “Error”. Errors will write to your debug.log file.

However, you’ll also need to temporarily turn on debug. In your wp-config.php file:

define(‘WP_DEBUG’, true);
define(‘WP_DEBUG_LOG’, true);
define(‘WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY’, false);
@ini_set(‘display_errors’, 0);

In the next release – version 2.0.4 – I’m going to have the chatbot write out these errors to it’s on log file.

Maybe this will give us some clues as to what is going on.

Hello Johnathan.PRO (@evanspress),

Version 2.0.5 has been released to the WordPress Plugin Directory.

Please upgrade to this version at your earliest opportunity.

There is now a directory in the plugin called ‘chatbot-logs’ where errors are logged.

If you have have turn debugging on in your production system, you should be able to now disable it.

Let me know if this version resolves your issues.

Stephen

Thanks and I will take a look.
