Troubleshooting & FAQs

Why are notification emails not delivering?

99% of email issues stem from unauthenticated server mail (wp_mail()). Ensure that:

  1. You completed Step 4 (SMTP setup) in the NativeDesk > Mail settings tab or through an active SMTP plugin.
  2. The “From Email” address matches the domain authorized by your email provider.
  3. You have sent a successful test email using your SMTP diagnostic tool.

Why are live polling or REST API updates failing in the admin area?

If ticket updates fail to load dynamically:

  1. Check if a caching plugin or security rule (e.g., Cloudflare, Wordfence) is blocking REST API endpoint calls (/wp-json/nativedesk/...).
  2. Ensure NativeDesk is updated to version 1.8.3 or higher, which includes REST API security and endpoint hardening.
