FAQ

Does it auto-publish?

By default, posts are created as drafts. You can enable “Publish when QC passes” to auto-publish only if your quality thresholds are met.

Where do citations come from?

From the source URLs you provide in the CSV. The plugin discourages invented links and builds a References section.

Do I need Pexels?

No. If a Pexels key is added, the first relevant result is downloaded and set as the featured image (with alt text set to the title).

Is SEO supported?

If Yoast SEO is active, the plugin fills basic fields (title, meta description, focus keyphrase) from your content and keywords.

The plugin is a gamechanger for me as it does exactly it says – Add your API keys and starts with posting article and images from openai and pexels into draft posts. Its a straight approach without any cumbersome settings like many plugins. Recommended A++++
