## Steps to Configure

1. Navigate to the Knowledge Navigator Scheduling section of the Kognetiks Chatbot plugin in your WordPress dashboard.

2. Set the `Select Run Schedule` dropdown to the desired frequency for content scans.

3. Enter the desired number of `Maximum Top Words` to index during each scan.

4. Set the `Tuning Percentage` to the desired level of keyword inclusion from each content item.

5. Click 'Save Settings' to apply the changes.

## Example Configuration

- **Select Run Schedule**: `Daily`

- **Maximum Top Words**: `1000`

- **Tuning Percentage**: `25%`

This configuration will ensure that the Knowledge Navigator scans your website content once a day, indexing up to 1,000 top words and including 25% of the top keywords from each content item.

## Tips

- **Frequency of Updates**: Choose a run schedule that matches how frequently your content is updated. For static sites, a weekly scan might be sufficient, while dynamic sites may benefit from hourly or daily scans.

- **Performance Considerations**: Higher values for top words and tuning percentage provide more detailed indexing but can affect performance. Adjust these settings based on your server capacity and performance requirements.

- **Immediate Updates**: Use the `Now` option if you need to run an immediate scan after significant content changes.

By configuring these settings, you ensure that your Kognetiks Chatbot stays up-to-date with the latest content on your website, providing accurate and relevant information to users.
