InquiryFlow installs like any WordPress plugin. After activation, it registers under the WP Travel Kit admin menu.

Step-by-step guide

Install from a ZIP file

1. Go to WordPress Admin → Plugins → Add New Plugin.
2. Click Upload Plugin.
3. Choose the inquiryflow.zip file and click Install Now.
4. Click Activate Plugin.

Install from the plugin directory (if published)

1. Go to Plugins → Add New Plugin.
2. Search for InquiryFlow.
3. Click Install Now, then Activate.

Confirm WP Travel Engine (recommended)

1. Go to Plugins and confirm WP Travel Engine is active.
2. InquiryFlow works without WPTE, but the trip context (trip title, thumbnail, price in the inbox) requires WP Travel Engine trip pages.

Find the admin menu

1. In the left admin menu, open WP Travel Kit.
2. Click InquiryFlow.
3. You should see tabs: Inquiries and Settings.

If the menu is missing, confirm the plugin is activated and your user has manage_options capability.

First-time settings

1. Open InquiryFlow → Settings.
2. Walk through the Setup Guide or jump to Getting started.

Tips

• InquiryFlow bundles the shared WP Travel Kit core. If you also run TripCompare or other suite plugins, core loads once — no conflict.
• After upgrading, clear any page cache so the front-end widget script refreshes.

Common mistakes

• Activating only InquiryFlow Pro without the Free plugin — Pro requires InquiryFlow Free to be active first.
• Editing trip templates, expecting a built-in form — InquiryFlow uses a floating widget, not a theme form replacement.
