Getting Help

How to diagnose issues and get support for Nventory.

Self-Diagnosis Steps

Before reaching out for support, try these steps to identify the issue:

Check Your Connection

Go to Nventory in your WordPress admin and click Test Connection. This tells you immediately if your store can communicate with the Nventory platform.

Verify WooCommerce Is Active

Go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and confirm WooCommerce is activated. Nventory cannot function without it.

Check Your User Role

You need the Shop Manager or Administrator role to use Nventory. Go to Users > Your Profile to verify.

Try a Different Browser

If the interface isn't responding, try opening your WordPress admin in a different browser or incognito window. This rules out browser extension conflicts.
