## Description

#### Complete WordPress CRM with Contact Management, Email Campaigns, Newsletters, Visual Marketing Automation, and Reports

Kelune CRM is a self-hosted CRM and marketing platform for WordPress. Manage your
contacts, organize them with tags and lists, design emails with a drag-and-drop 
builder, run campaigns, and automate follow-ups with a visual automation builder—
all from your WordPress admin.

Every feature in the Free Features list below is included and fully functional. 
Kelune CRM stores your data in your own WordPress database and works offline by 
default: aside from the avatar WordPress itself already loads for the logged-in 
user, it only contacts an external service when you explicitly enable and configure
one (see the “External services” section below).

**🎯 Dynamic Segments**

 * Visual query builder with AND/OR logic and nested condition groups.
 * Segment on contact fields, custom fields, tags, lists, lead score, activity and
   signup date.

   send to it.

**🔗 Smart Links**

 * Trackable links that act on the contact who clicks them.
 * Add or remove tags and lists on click, then redirect to any destination URL.
 * Optional expiry date, plus per-link click tracking and reporting.

**🪄 Advanced Automation**

 * Condition steps with YES/NO branching on the canvas.
 * Branch on field values (10 operators), tags, lists, segments, and email opens
   or clicks.
 * Advanced actions: update a contact field, or send an outgoing webhook to any 
   service.
 * Advanced triggers: start a workflow when a contact opens an email or clicks a
   link.

**⚖️ Campaign A/B Testing**

 * Test subject lines or full email content as variants in a single campaign.
 * Send to a sample of the audience first, at the percentage you choose.
 * The winner is picked automatically by open rate or click rate, then delivered
   to everyone else.

### Source Code

The only compiled code in this plugin is the dashboard bundle in `assets/apps/dashboard/`;
nothing is obfuscated. Its full React and TypeScript source, with the Vite build
configuration, is published in a [public GitHub repository](https://github.com/devitemsllc/kelune-crm).

To rebuild it (Node.js 20 or newer): `cd js-apps/dashboard`, then `yarn install`
and `yarn build`.

### Bundled Libraries

The scripts in `assets/apps/dashboard/` are compiled from third-party npm packages—
React, Ant Design, Redux Toolkit, React Flow and others — and none of them is fetched
at runtime. Every package is MIT licensed except SheetJS (`xlsx`), used to read 
spreadsheet files during contact import, which is Apache License 2.0; their own 
dependencies are MIT, ISC, BSD or 0BSD. All are compatible with this plugin’s “GPLv2
or later” license. `js-apps/dashboard/package.json` and `js-apps/dashboard/yarn.
lock` in the repository linked above name and pin every package, direct and indirect.

No third-party PHP libraries are included.

### External services

Kelune CRM works fully offline by default and stores all data in your own WordPress
database. It connects to an external service only when you explicitly enable and
configure that service, with one exception noted under Gravatar below. No data is
ever sent to the plugin author.

**SendGrid**

Used to deliver email (campaigns, automations, and transactional mail) when you 
select SendGrid as your email provider and enter a SendGrid API key.

 * Data sent: message content, subject, and recipient/sender email addresses. When
   you save the provider settings, only your API key is sent, to validate it against
   the SendGrid profile endpoint.
 * When sent: each time the plugin sends an email through this provider, and when
   you save the provider settings.
 * Service URL: https://api.sendgrid.com
 * Terms of Service: https://www.twilio.com/en-us/legal/tos/
 * Privacy Policy: https://www.twilio.com/en-us/legal/privacy/

**Mailgun**

Used to deliver email (campaigns, automations, and transactional mail) when you 
select Mailgun as your email provider and enter a Mailgun API key and sending domain.

 * Data sent: message content, subject, and recipient/sender email addresses. When
   you save the provider settings, only your API key and sending domain are sent,
   to confirm the domain exists on your account.
 * When sent: each time the plugin sends an email through this provider, and when
   you save the provider settings.
 * Service URL: https://api.mailgun.net (or https://api.eu.mailgun.net if you select
   the EU region).
 * Terms of Service: https://www.mailgun.com/legal/terms/
 * Privacy Policy: https://www.mailgun.com/legal/privacy-policy/

**Amazon SES**

Used to deliver email (campaigns, automations, and transactional mail) when you 
select Amazon SES as your email provider and enter AWS credentials. No request is
made to Amazon until you have selected SES and saved your credentials.

 * Data sent: the raw message — recipient/sender addresses, subject, and content.
   Further calls send only your AWS credentials and no contact data: they read your
   account’s sending quota and list the sender addresses your AWS account has verified.
 * When sent: each time the plugin sends an email through this provider; when you
   save the provider settings; and when you open the provider’s details screen.
 * Service URL: https://email.{your-region}.amazonaws.com — for example https://
   email.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
 * Terms of Service: https://aws.amazon.com/service-terms/
 * Privacy Policy: https://aws.amazon.com/privacy/

**Gravatar**

Used to display contact avatars when you enable the “Use Gravatar service” setting.
Separately, and regardless of that setting, the dashboard greeting shows the logged-
in WordPress user’s own avatar through WordPress’s built-in avatar system, which
uses Gravatar by default; this is the same avatar WordPress already shows in the
admin bar, and it follows the site-wide “Show Avatars” option under Settings > Discussion.

 * Data sent: a SHA-256 hash of the email address, sent by the browser when the 
   avatar image is loaded. With the setting disabled, no avatar URL is generated
   for contacts and nothing is sent.
 * When sent: when a contact avatar is rendered with the setting enabled, and when
   the dashboard greeting renders the logged-in user’s avatar.
 * Service URL: https://www.gravatar.com
 * Terms of Service: https://wordpress.com/tos/
 * Privacy Policy: https://automattic.com/privacy/

**SMTP (your own mail server)**

Used to deliver email when you select SMTP as your email provider. This is not a
fixed third-party service: the plugin connects only to the mail server host you 
enter yourself.

 * Data sent: message content, subject, and recipient/sender email addresses, plus
   the SMTP credentials you configure.
 * When sent: each time the plugin sends an email through this provider.
 * Service URL: the SMTP host you configure.
 * Terms & Privacy: governed by your own mail server provider.

## Installation

 1. In your WordPress admin, go to **Plugins  Add New**, search for “Kelune CRM”, and
    click **Install Now**, then **Activate**. To install manually instead, upload the`
    kelune-crm` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/` and activate it from the **Plugins**
    screen.
 2. Open **Kelune CRM** from the admin menu to configure your settings and add your
    first contacts.

## FAQ

### What PHP version is required?

PHP 8.1 or higher.

### Does the plugin require any paid or external service to work?

No. Kelune CRM is fully functional on its own and works offline by default. External
services (email providers, Gravatar for contact avatars) are optional and are only
contacted after you enable and configure them. The one exception is the logged-in
user’s own avatar in the dashboard greeting, which WordPress loads through its standard
avatar system. See the “External services” section.

### Which email providers are supported?

SMTP, Amazon SES, Mailgun, and SendGrid are built in. You can choose which one each
campaign sends from.

You can also set up nothing at all. Kelune CRM then hands email to WordPress, so
it goes out the same way the rest of your site’s mail does — including through any
SMTP plugin you already use. Anything that plugin can send through works here too.

### Where is my contact data stored?

In your own WordPress database, in custom `kelune_crm_*` tables. Nothing is sent
anywhere unless you enable an external service.

### Is any functionality locked behind a license?

No. Everything shipped in this plugin is free and fully functional. The Pro features
listed in the description come from a separate add-on plugin, Kelune CRM Pro, which
is not required for this plugin to work.
