+Custom WooCommerce utility: automated order emails, anti-spam protection, email templates/campaigns, mailing list, custom admin login logo, and basic backup tools.
+
+== Description ==
+
+Dapper is a clean, dependency-free utility plugin for WooCommerce and WordPress sites that need reliable automation, security, and branding.
+
+**Current features include:**
+- Automated, customizable order status emails (processing, shipped, delivered, tracking, review requests, etc.)
+- Built-in anti-spam protection for registration and checkout (honeypot fields, JavaScript validation, submission speed limits — no third-party services)
+- Custom email template and campaign post types for easy management
+- Mailing list subscriber handling (add/remove/update status)
+- **Custom WP-admin login logo** — upload your own 120×120 image in settings to brand the login screen (with live preview)
+- Basic backup tab with manual backup creation, file listing, and secure downloads (database + essential files)
+- Debug mode and conditional WooCommerce loading for performance
+
+**Upcoming:**
+- Scheduled automated backups with retention policies and easy restore options
+- Enhanced backup scheduling and notification features
+
+Perfect for managed hosting, client sites, or any WooCommerce store wanting secure, branded, no-bloat tools.
+
+== Installation ==
+
+1. Upload the `dapper` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`
+2. Activate the plugin via the Plugins menu
+3. Go to **Email Templates → Settings** to configure:
+   - Enable WooCommerce integration
+   - Upload custom login logo (120×120 px recommended)
+   - Set email templates, headers, review link structure, etc.
+   - Use the Backups tab for manual backups and downloads
+4. Test order emails, checkout, login screen, and backups on a staging site first
+
+== Frequently Asked Questions ==
+
+= Can I brand the WordPress login screen? =
+Yes — in Dapper Settings → General, enable "Custom Admin Panel Login Logo" and upload your image. It replaces the default logo on wp-login.php.
+
+= Does it use any external services? =
+No — all features run on your server (no APIs, no reCAPTCHA, no tracking pixels).
+
+= How do backups work? =
+The Backups tab lets you manually create a database export (.sql) and essential files zip. Downloads are secure and admin-only. Scheduled backups and restores coming soon.
+
