Troubleshooting

Fix common Klarvo AI Transparency issues — badge not appearing, styling conflicts, false positives, connected mode errors, and plugin conflicts.

Badge not appearing

  • Check that the plugin is activated (Plugins → Installed Plugins)
  • Check that AI tools are actually detected — go to Settings → Klarvo AI Transparency and look for the detection count
  • If the count is 0, no AI-powered plugins were detected. The badge only appears when detections exist.
  • Clear your caching plugin (WP Super Cache, W3 Total Cache, LiteSpeed Cache, WP Rocket, etc.)
  • If you use Cloudflare, purge the cache from your Cloudflare dashboard
  • Check that no page builder or optimisation plugin is stripping the badge markup
  • Badge appears but looks broken

  • Some themes with aggressive CSS resets may affect the badge. The badge uses inline styles to minimise conflicts, but very opinionated themes may override them.
  • In connected mode (Pro+), you can use custom CSS to fix styling issues.
  • Open a browser console (F12) and check for CSS conflicts on the .klarvo-ai-notice element.
  • False positives

    A tool detected by Klarvo AI Transparency might not actually use AI for your specific use case. For example, Gravity Forms is detected because it has AI features, but you might not have those features enabled. The badge errs on the side of disclosure — which aligns with the EU AI Act's intent.

    If you believe a detection is genuinely incorrect, email hello@klarvo.io with the tool name and your reasoning.

    Plugin conflicts

    Klarvo AI Transparency is designed to work alongside any WordPress plugin. It loads late (priority 999) and uses minimal hooks. If you experience conflicts:

  • Deactivate other plugins one by one to isolate the conflict
  • Check if the conflict is with a caching plugin (most common) — try clearing cache first
  • Check if a JavaScript optimisation plugin (Autoptimize, WP Rocket JS delay) is breaking the badge script
  • Connected mode not working

  • Verify your site key is entered correctly (no spaces, exact match)
  • Check that your site URL in Klarvo matches the WordPress Site URL (Settings → General → Site Address)
  • If you're behind Cloudflare, ensure the API request to klarvo.io is not being blocked by a firewall rule
  • Check the browser console for CORS errors — this typically means the site key doesn't match
  • Contact support

    For issues not covered here, email hello@klarvo.io with:

  • Your WordPress version
  • Klarvo AI Transparency plugin version
  • Active theme name
  • A screenshot of the issue
  • Browser console output if relevant
  • Previous: Detection
