## Installation

#### Requirements

 * WordPress 6.2+
 * PHP 8.2+

#### Step-by-step install

 1. Upload the plugin folder to `wp-content/plugins/lucrativeit-support-ticket-plus/`,
    or install the ZIP from Plugins  Add New  Upload Plugin.
 2. Go to Plugins in WordPress admin and click Activate on LucrativeIt Support Ticket
    Plus.
 3. On activation, the plugin creates a Support Portal page with the shortcode `[lucrativeit_support_portal]`.
 4. Open Pages  All Pages, find Support Portal, and click View. Add that page to your
    menu under Appearance  Menus so customers can find it.
 5. Configure the basics under Support Ticket Plus  Settings (App Name, Ticket Prefix,
    Admin Notification Email, Max Attachment Size, Admin Ticket Options).
 6. Create departments under Support Ticket Plus  Departments so tickets can be routed
    correctly. Enable Auto-assign for round-robin distribution among agents in that
    department.
 7. (Optional) Grant staff permissions under Support Ticket Plus  Roles. Every logged-
    in user is a customer by default. Grant the Tickets permission to a WordPress role(
    for example Editor) to make those users support agents.

#### Manual portal page (if needed)

If the Support Portal page was deleted:

 1. Pages  Add New
 2. Add the shortcode `[lucrativeit_support_portal]`
 3. Publish and link it from your menu

Knowledge base only (optional): `[lucrativeit_knowledge_base]`

#### Enable registration

Customers need an account to open tickets. Registration is controlled in two places—
both must allow sign-ups.

**A. WordPress membership (required)**

 1. Go to Settings  General (WordPress core settings, not the plugin).
 2. Enable Membership  Anyone can register.
 3. Save changes.

**B. Plugin Auth setting**

 1. Go to Support Ticket Plus  Settings  Auth.
 2. Set Allow Registration to Yes.
 3. Click Save Changes.

New accounts receive the Subscriber role and can create and view only their own 
tickets. Login details are emailed after registration (SMTP must be configured for
reliable delivery).

#### Why SMTP and how to configure it

WordPress’s default mail() function often fails on shared hosting or lands in spam.
Support Ticket Plus sends email for registration confirmation, new ticket alerts,
reply notifications, and status/assignment updates. SMTP uses your mail provider’s
authenticated server so messages are delivered reliably.

 1. Go to Support Ticket Plus  Settings  SMTP.
 2. Fill in the fields from your mail provider (Gmail, Microsoft 365, cPanel, SendGrid,
    etc.): SMTP Host, Port (465 SSL or 587 TLS), Username, Password (prefer app passwords
    for Gmail), From Email, From Name, Encryption.
 3. Click Save Changes.

## FAQ

### How do I make someone a support agent?

Go to Support Ticket Plus  Roles and grant the Tickets permission to the WordPress
role that user has (for example, Editor). Alternatively, change the user’s WordPress
role to one that already has the Tickets permission. There is no separate “support
role” to assign.

### Will users who register on the front end be able to see other people’s tickets?

No. Front-end registrants get the Subscriber role, which is not granted the staff
Tickets permission, so they are customers who can only create and view their own
tickets and use their dashboard. To turn a user into staff, grant the Tickets permission
to their WordPress role on Support Ticket Plus  Roles (or move them to a role that
has it).

### How do I show the support portal on my site?

Add the `[lucrativeit_support_portal]` shortcode to any WordPress page. On activation,
a Support Portal page is created for you.

### What is the email webhook URL?

Install the optional Lucrative Support Ticket Pro add-on, then go to Support Ticket
Plus  Settings  Email Ticketing. The REST endpoint and webhook secret are shown 
there.

### Does Gmail inbound require a cron job?

With the Pro add-on, WP-Cron polls Gmail every minute by default. For production,
set a real server cron hitting wp-cron.php.

## Changelog

#### 1.1.9

 * Added Premium Upgrade admin page with Pro feature highlights and upgrade link.

#### 1.1.8

 * Added option for customers to change ticket status.
 * Updated readme.txt.

#### 1.1.7

 * Initial update

#### 1.1.6

 * Security: removed the in-plugin user create/edit/delete handlers entirely; account
   lifecycle is delegated to WordPress core (Users screen) so create_users, promote_users,
   and edit_users checks always apply.
 * Security: assign_role() no longer modifies WordPress core roles and only accepts
   known plugin role slugs stored in user meta.
 * Security: the Roles & Permissions screen and permission map updates now require
   manage_options.

#### 1.1.5

 * Security: fixed a privilege-escalation risk and hardened account/role handling—
   the plugin assigns permissions to existing WordPress roles instead of creating
   or granting core roles.
 * Added front-end AJAX login and registration on the support portal (modal), so
   customers no longer go to the WordPress admin to sign in.

#### 1.1.4

 * Maintenance release: minor bug fixes and stability improvements.
 * Verified compatibility with the latest WordPress release.

#### 1.1.3

   slug and pretty-URL rewrite base).

   with %i identifier placeholders, output escaping, and translators comments.
 * Removed the discouraged manual load_plugin_textdomain() call (translations load
   automatically).
 * Bumped minimum WordPress to 6.2 (required for the %i placeholder) and tested 
   up to WordPress 7.0.

#### 1.1.2

 * Renamed plugin to LucrativeIt Help Desk and Ticket Manager (slug: lucrativeit-
   help-desk-ticket-manager).
