🎯 CURRENT SESSION - ZOHO CRM INTEGRATION SETUP (Dec 16, 2025)

Zoho CRM Integration - Staging Environment

Objective: Configure and test Zoho CRM sync implementation for staging environment.

Status: ✅ OAuth Working, Sync Methods Implemented, Dry-Run Tested

Completed:

1. ✅ OAuth Authentication Verified

   • Refresh token exists and is valid
   • API connection successful (53 modules accessible)
   • Read operations working (Contacts, Campaigns, Users)

2. ✅ Read-Only API Tests Passed

   • Organization Info: Manifold Cloud Services (America/Detroit)
   • Contacts: 5+ records readable (Tanner Moore, Pete Knochelmann, etc.)
   • Campaigns: 5+ records readable (Nov 28, Oct 23, etc.)
   • CRM Users: Ben Reed (CEO), JR Lawhorne (Manager), etc.

3. ✅ Sync Class Bug Fixes

   • Fixed user roles: trainer/trainee → hvac_trainer/hvac_master_trainer
   • Fixed event filter: Removed restrictive _hvac_event_type meta query
   • Fixed event display: Changed eventDisplay from list to custom to include past events
   • Fixed WooCommerce dependency: Added graceful error handling

4. ✅ Event Tickets Integration (NEW)

   • Replaced WooCommerce sync with Event Tickets (Tickets Commerce) support
   • Added sync_attendees() method → Zoho Contacts + Campaign Members
   • Added sync_rsvps() method → Zoho Leads + Campaign Members
   • Updated meta keys for Tickets Commerce (_tec_tickets_commerce_*)
   • Updated meta keys for RSVPs (_tribe_rsvp_*)

5. ✅ Admin Interface Updated

   • Added "Sync Attendees" button (Contacts + Campaign Members)
   • Added "Sync RSVPs" button (Leads + Campaign Members)
   • Renamed "Sync Purchases" to "Sync Orders" (Tickets Commerce)

Dry-Run Results (Staging - No Data Sent to Zoho):

Sync Type	Records Found	Status
Events → Campaigns	20	✅ Ready
Trainers → Contacts	53	✅ Ready
Attendees → Contacts + Campaign Members	79	✅ Ready
RSVPs → Leads + Campaign Members	4	✅ Ready
Orders → Invoices	52	✅ Ready

Zoho CRM Mapping Strategy:

• Events → Campaigns (direct mapping)
• Trainers (hvac_trainer, hvac_master_trainer) → Contacts (with Contact_Type field)
• Ticket Attendees → Contacts + Campaign Members (links Contact ↔ Campaign)
• RSVPs → Leads + Campaign Members (links Lead ↔ Campaign)
• Ticket Orders → Invoices (financial records)

Staging Protection Active:

• All write operations (POST/PUT/DELETE) are blocked on staging
• Only production (upskillhvac.com) can write to Zoho CRM
• Dry-run shows what would sync without actually sending data

Admin Page Location:

• /wp-admin/admin.php?page=hvac-zoho-sync

Files Modified:

• includes/zoho/class-zoho-sync.php - Complete rewrite for Event Tickets
• includes/admin/class-zoho-admin.php - Added new sync buttons

📅 PREVIOUS SESSION - GEMINI TRANSITION & VALIDATION (Dec 16, 2025)

Gemini Development Environment Setup

Objective: Transition from Claude Code-specific tooling to Gemini/Antigravity agent development workflow.

Completed:

1. ✅ Created GEMINI.md - New development guidelines

   • Critical safety constraints for Cloudways Shared VPS
   • Workflows for testing (/test) and deployment
   • Coding standards (Singleton pattern, security, PHP 8+ modernization)
   • Agent personas (Tester, Security Auditor, Deployment Engineer)

2. ✅ Environment Configuration

   • Updated .gitignore to allow .agent/, .mcp.json, GEMINI.md
   • Created /home/ben/dev/upskill-event-manager/.agent/workflows/test.md
   • Fixed file access blocked by gitignore

3. ✅ PHP 8+ Compatibility Verification

   • Issue: true|\WP_Error syntax causing PHP fatal errors on staging (PHP 8.0)
   • Fix: Changed to bool|\WP_Error in includes/class-hvac-security-helpers.php:231
   • Status: Deployed to staging, verified working

4. ✅ Comprehensive Test Suite

   • File: test-comprehensive-validation.js (Playwright E2E tests)
   • Fixed: Login form selectors (#user_login, #user_pass, #wp-submit)
   • Modes: Headless (default) or headed (DISPLAY=:1 HEADLESS=false)
   • Results:
     • Master Trainer pages: ✅ ALL PASSING (4/4)
     • Security endpoints: ✅ ALL SECURE (4/4)
     • Trainer pages: ⚠️ Require authentication (expected)

Test Results Summary:

✅ Master Dashboard - Functional with navigation
✅ Announcements - Fully functional & responsive
✅ Pending Approvals - Fully functional & responsive
✅ Trainers - Fully functional & responsive

🔒 Security: All AJAX endpoints properly secured (401/400 responses)
   - hvac_get_trainer_stats
   - hvac_manage_announcement
   - hvac_approve_trainer
   - hvac_approve_trainer_v2

Test Credentials Updated:

• test_master / Test123! (hvac_master_trainer)
• test_trainer / Test123! (hvac_trainer)
• test_admin / Test123! (administrator)

5. ✅ Master Trainer Navigation Dropdown Fix (Dec 16, 2025)
   • Issue: Green/teal colored boxes appearing in navigation toolbar instead of dropdown arrows
   • Root Cause: Empty <span class="menu-toggle"> elements with CSS background styling
   • Fix: Replaced with <span class="dropdown-arrow">▼</span> in includes/class-hvac-master-menu-system.php:327
   • Impact: All master trainer pages (/master-trainer/*)
   • Status: ✅ Deployed to staging, verified working
   • Verification: Screenshots confirm dropdown arrows display correctly, green boxes removed

🔧 KEY DEVELOPMENT GUIDELINES

GEMINI.md Rules (NEW)

1. Safety First:

2. Infrastructure Constraints:

   • Cloudways Shared VPS (limited resources)
   • Do NOT force PHP version changes
   • Do NOT install system-level packages
   • Be mindful of CPU/RAM usage

3. Testing Mandatory:

   node test-comprehensive-validation.js
   

4. Security Standards:

   • Always sanitize input
   • Always escape output
   • Verify nonces on forms & AJAX
   • Check roles/capabilities

WordPress Architecture
