External Services
The optional AI features connect to the Naibabiji/QuheNet AI Manager service at https://api.quhenet.com/.
This service is used only when a site administrator configures an AI Key and enables or uses AI features, such as the frontend AI chat widget or the editor AI writing assistant. The product catalog, product display, inquiry forms, shortcodes, widgets, SEO settings, and other non-AI features work without an AI Key or external AI connection.
When AI is used, the plugin may send the following data to the AI Manager service to generate a response or verify service access: the configured AI Key, site URL, request ID, visitor IP address, visitor chat message and chat history, product title, product short description, product detail excerpt, SKU, price, categories, tags, selected bulk specs, pasted product material, Company Profile, FAQ Knowledge Base, site locale, and quota/license verification data.
Data is sent to provide AI answers, product title and short description suggestions, quota checks, license verification, domain binding, and abuse prevention. The AI Manager service is operated by QuheNet.

Frequently asked questions
Does this plugin support shopping cart functionality?
No. This plugin is designed for B2B businesses, focusing on product display and inquiry functionality, without e-commerce features like shopping carts or payments.
How can I customize product templates?
You can create the following template files in your theme directory to override the default templates: – single-naibb2pr_products.php – Single product page – archive-naibb2pr_products.php – Product archive page – taxonomy-naibb2pr_product_category.php – Product category page – taxonomy-naibb2pr_product_tag.php – Product tag page
What shortcodes are supported?
The plugin provides the following shortcodes: – [naibabiji_b2b_products] – Display product grid – [naibabiji_b2b_product_categories] – Display product categories – [naibabiji_b2b_contact_form] – Display an inline contact form for collecting messages
Does the plugin support sidebar widgets?
Yes! You can use the plugin’s shortcodes in any text widget with the following features: Key Features: * Smart Style Loading – Automatically detects shortcodes in sidebar and loads CSS styles only when needed * Flexible Configuration – Supports product count, column layout, category filtering and other parameter settings * Responsive Design – Automatically adjusts to single column layout on mobile devices * Theme Compatibility – Works seamlessly with most WordPress themes Usage Steps: 1. Go to WordPress admin Appearance → Widgets 2. Add a “Text” widget to your sidebar 3. Paste the product…
How do I change the category navigation on product archive pages?
Go to B2B Showcase → Settings → Archive Content and choose Top buttons or Left navigation under Category Navigation Layout. Top buttons work well for a small catalog. Left navigation is recommended for larger or multi-level catalogs and automatically becomes an expandable panel on smaller screens.
Why don’t product styles work in the sidebar?
This issue has been fixed in v1.0.13. If you still encounter style problems, please try: Clear Cache – If using a cache plugin, clear all caches Refresh Page – Use Ctrl+F5 to force refresh the browser Check Widget Configuration – Ensure the widget is properly saved Theme Compatibility – Some themes may require additional CSS adjustments If the problem persists, please contact technical support and provide the theme name for further troubleshooting.
How do I set up bulk (multi-spec) inquiry for a product?
Edit the product and set Inquiry Type to Bulk. In the B2B Product Fields editor panel, add at least two Bulk Inquiry Specs with model codes and descriptions. You can also import or export CSV files there. Save the product. On the frontend, visitors will see a specs selection table where they can add items to an inquiry cart and submit a combined batch inquiry.
What is the difference between Inquiry Mode and Inquiry Type?
Inquiry Type is set per product (None / Standard / Bulk) and defines what kind of inquiry experience that single product offers. Inquiry Mode is a site-wide setting (External Link or Built-in Form) that only affects Standard-type products — it controls whether the inquiry button links to an external URL or opens a popup. Bulk-type products always use the built-in bulk inquiry form regardless of this setting.
Why do I see “Too many submissions” when testing bulk inquiry?
The plugin enforces a rate limit of 3 submissions per IP address within 5 minutes to prevent spam. If you need to test frequently or want a higher threshold, install a captcha plugin that integrates through the naibabiji_contact_form_validate filter.
Does this plugin support AI agents or MCP?
Yes. B2B Product Showcase exposes read-only product catalog capabilities through the WordPress Abilities API. Compatible MCP adapters can make these abilities available to AI clients such as Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, and other MCP-compatible tools. The plugin itself does not include an MCP server.
Can AI edit or delete my products?
No. The current AI integration is read-only. AI agents can read published product catalog data, but cannot create, edit, publish, or delete products through these abilities. They also cannot access inquiries, change plugin settings, or read API keys.
Changelog
5.3.4
- New: Added a Product Page setting for showing or hiding the Related Products section; it remains enabled by default for existing sites.
- New: Added independent “Show category” and “Show excerpt” controls to the Featured Products, Product Carousel, and Category Tabs Products blocks.
- Fixed: Related Products now follows the Archive Content grid-card setting for showing or hiding short descriptions and product categories.
- Changed: Clarified the Grid Card Fields setting description to state which pages it affects and that it does not override shortcode or Gutenberg block display settings.
5.3.3
- New: This plugin now detects WooCommerce and blocks activation (in either activation order) with a clear message, because both plugins default to the same product category/tag URL structure and would otherwise break product links if run together.
- New: The
[naibabiji_b2b_products]shortcode and the Shortcode Generator now support filtering by product tag, in addition to product category. - Fixed: The Product Carousel block could show an unwanted horizontal scrollbar and off-center previous/next arrow icons on some themes. The block now sets its own sizing and button styles instead of relying on the active theme’s defaults.
- Fixed: Category and tag filtering silently failed for non-Latin category/tag names (for example Chinese names), because their slugs are percent-encoded and were being cleared out by input sanitization meant for plain text.
- Improved: The product editor now shows a reminder with a one-click action when a product has no Featured Image set, since without one the product displays with no photo at all on cards and the product page.
- Improved: The Product Gallery’s empty-state message now explains that you can select or upload multiple images at once.
- Improved: Addressed findings from an official WordPress Plugin Check scan, including a deprecated core function call and unprefixed template variables.
5.3.2
- Fixed: Product detail tabs now switch content without adding URL anchors or moving the user’s page position.
5.3.1
- Fixed: Product and category images in the plugin’s blocks now preserve their original aspect ratio instead of being cropped to a fixed frame.
5.3.0
- New: Added AI Integration — read-only product catalog access through the WordPress Abilities API for compatible AI agents and MCP adapters.
- New: AI clients can browse and search published products, read product details and specifications (including bulk inquiry specs), view categories and tags, and get a catalog overview.
- Security: The AI integration is read-only. AI clients cannot create, edit, publish, or delete products, access inquiries, change plugin settings, or read API keys.
- Compatibility: Requires an authenticated WordPress user with read permission; only published product data is exposed.
5.2.5
- New: Added a Grid Card Fields setting under Archive Content to let you show or hide the short description and category on product cards for the default archive, category, and tag pages in grid layout.
- Compatibility: Confirmed compatible with WordPress 7.1.
