AI chatbot for Dokan Store Support: per-vendor ticket triage

A bot that knows the vendor and the ticket
Dokan's Store Support module stores each ticket as a custom post type called dokan_store_support with vendor and order context attached through wp_postmeta keys like store_id, order_id, and status. Customers open tickets from the My Account area or the product page, and vendors reply from their own dashboard. The problem is that buyers usually do not know which vendor owns which product, and they ask the marketplace bot first.
SleekAI maps Store Support post fields, the vendor's shop_name from wp_users and the Dokan vendor metadata, plus the related WooCommerce order from wc_orders into the system message. Display conditions scope the bot to the My Account ticket page, a specific vendor's store URL, or a logged-in customer with an open ticket. Multibot lets a customer-facing assistant and a vendor-side triage assistant share the same install with different prompts.
A generic chatbot has no idea who the vendor of a given product is, will invent refund policies that the vendor has not agreed to, and cannot tell a customer that ticket number 482 is already marked as answered. SleekAI reads the actual ticket thread, status, and last reply timestamp, then either confirms the status or asks for a specific clarification the vendor will need.

Features
What SleekAI gives you for Dokan Store Support
Ticket-aware replies
The system message includes the ticket subject, status, last reply, and the linked vendor and order, so the bot can say what stage a real ticket is at instead of guessing or repeating a canned acknowledgement.
Vendor scoping
Run one assistant on each vendor's store URL with that vendor's tone and policy in the prompt. The marketplace operator keeps a top-level bot for routing and dispute escalation across all vendors.
Audit log per ticket
Every conversation is stored in WordPress with the model name, token count, and page URL. Match logs against tickets to find recurring complaints and feed them back into vendor onboarding.
Use cases
Where marketplaces use SleekAI with Store Support
First-line triage
Catch the easy questions about ticket status, vendor reply windows, and ship-to countries before they hit the vendor's queue, with the actual ticket open in the prompt.
Escalation routing
When the bot detects refund or dispute language, it flags the ticket as urgent in the metadata and tells the customer which vendor will respond and by when.
Vendor coaching
Marketplace operators review conversation logs across vendors to spot which stores accumulate the most repeat complaints and adjust their onboarding accordingly.
The bigger picture
Why vendor-aware support matters on Dokan
Marketplaces fail when buyers cannot tell who is responsible for their order. A generic chatbot does not know that Dokan splits the relationship between marketplace operator, vendor, and customer. It will accept a refund question that only the vendor can decide, repeat a policy that does not exist on this store, or quote a shipping window that the vendor never agreed to.
Each of those answers becomes a chargeback, a public review, or a vendor leaving the platform. Dokan already stores everything the assistant needs to behave correctly. The Store Support custom post type, the vendor user record, and the underlying WooCommerce order are all in the WordPress database.
SleekAI exposes them as mapped variables. Marketplace operators can run a triage bot that knows whose ticket is whose, vendors can run a coaching bot scoped to their own dashboard, and customers stop bouncing between vendor and platform looking for an answer. The result is faster first response, fewer escalations, and a clearer signal back to the operator about which vendors need help.
Questions
Common questions about SleekAI for Dokan Store Support
Yes. SleekAI maps the dokan_store_support custom post type and its postmeta keys into the system message at request time. The bot sees the ticket subject, status, last reply, and the linked order, so it can quote a real status instead of inventing one.
Yes. Dokan attaches the vendor user ID to each product through post_author, and the vendor's shop name and store URL come from user meta. SleekAI maps those fields, so the bot can say a wallet was sold by Berlin Leather Co rather than pretending the marketplace itself fulfilled the order.
 Yes. Multibot mode lets you scope each chatbot by URL pattern. Set one bot for the marketplace homepage, another for each vendor store URL, and a third for the customer's My Account ticket area. Each has its own system message and data scope.
 Set a separate bot scoped to the vendor dashboard URL and the vendor user role. That bot can summarise today's open tickets, draft a polite reply, and warn the vendor when an order is approaching the platform's reply deadline.
 No. Refunds run through Dokan's vendor flow and your payment gateway. The bot can flag a ticket as urgent, ask the customer for required info like the order number, and notify the vendor through the existing ticket thread without bypassing the vendor's approval.
 No. The marketplace operator brings one OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or OpenRouter key. Token usage is logged per conversation so you can attribute cost back to a specific vendor store if needed and bill it back through your marketplace fee model.
 Logs live inside your WordPress database, not on a third-party service. You decide retention. SleekAI honours user-role visibility, so a vendor only sees logs from bots scoped to their store, while the marketplace owner sees everything.
 Store Support is a Dokan Pro module, so the ticket data only exists on Pro sites. SleekAI works with either version, but the ticket-aware features described here depend on Pro being active and the Store Support module being enabled in the Dokan settings.
