## Description

This plugin provides a simple approach to handling support requests on a WordPress
website. With this plugin, you can create a form that asks users to enter a reason
for their inquiry or issue.

The plugin allows you to define possible contact reasons and links to resources 
that address each reason.

Once a user submits their reason for contact, the plugin will search through the
defined links to find possible solutions to their inquiry.

If a match is found, the plugin displays the relevant links to the user, providing
quick and easy access to the information they need.

This approach helps reduce the number of support requests you receive by enabling
users to find the solutions they need without having to contact you directly.

### Advantage

 1. **Time-saving for both website owners and visitors:** By offering potential solutions
    to common issues upfront, LetMeHelp helps to reduce the need for customers to contact
    support directly. This frees up resources that website owners can allocate elsewhere
    in their business while allowing visitors to receive faster answers to their support
    requests.
 2. **Streamlined support process:** LetMeHelp’s multi-step approach helps to ensure
    that the contact form is displayed only when necessary, preventing unnecessary 
    support requests and enabling the support team to focus on more complex queries.
 3. **Improved user experience:** Providing customers with quick access to the information
    they need fosters a positive perception of the brand, helping build trust and loyalty
    with customers, which is vital for any business.

## FAQ

### Explain the purpose of the LetMeHelp plugin and how it benefits WordPress users.

LetMeHelp aims to save time for both website owners and visitors by providing potential
solutions to common issues before users reach out to support. This efficiency boost
allows website owners to allocate resources to other aspects of their business while
ensuring visitors can quickly find the information they need, without waiting for
support responses.

### In the context of the LetMeHelp plugin, what are links and how do users add them through the plugin settings?

Links in the LetMeHelp plugin connect users to helpful resources like documentation
or blog articles. To add a link, navigate to the ‘Links’ tab in the plugin settings
and click the ‘Add’ button. These links serve as possible solutions to common support
inquiries.

### What are the URL, label, and keywords input fields used for when adding a link in the LetMeHelp plugin?

The URL field requires the web address of the resource you want to link to, while
the label field is for the text displayed as the link. In the keywords field, add
terms related to the target resource to connect the link to user queries.

### Explain the importance of keywords in the LetMeHelp plugin, and how the text input field for keywords works.

Keywords are essential for matching user queries to relevant links. When users enter
their reason for contact, the plugin searches for links with matching keywords to
suggest potential solutions. If no matching keywords are found, a “not found” message
is displayed, along with a link to the next page.

### How is a keyword connected to a link in the LetMeHelp plugin, and what happens when an input keyword matches or does not match a database keyword?

Keywords are added to links when creating them in the plugin settings. If a user’s
input keywords match a keyword in the database, the link(s) are displayed as potential
solutions. If no match is found, a “not found” message appears. In both cases, a
link to the destination page is also provided.

### What is a WordPress block, and how does the LetMeHelp block function within the plugin?

WordPress blocks are components used to build website content. The LetMeHelp block
enables the creation of a multi-step page with two steps: “Reason for contact” and“
destination page”. The first step prompts users to enter their reason for contact,
while the second step displays the contact form or any other added WordPress blocks,
currently available on the website.

### How can users set custom settings for the LetMeHelp block, preview it in the editor, and test its functionality?

The LetMeHelp block allows customization of the Subject (“Reason for contact”) form
and any additional text. The destination page can be customized by adding child 
blocks with desired content. The block also offers ‘Settings’ and ‘Preview’ modes
for configuration and testing.

### What is the destination page in the LetMeHelp plugin, and how can users customize it by adding blocks and changing its appearance?

The destination page appears after the user submits keywords and reviews potential
solutions. It is possible to customize this section by adding child blocks (such
as a ‘Group’ block containing a ‘Contact Form’ block) to the LetMeHelp block. Using
WordPress’ default settings, it is also possible to adjust the layout and appearance
of the destination page to fit the needs.
