  • The Time-saver is finally here!

    For months, I was looking to automate publishing posts on my WP site and stumbled upon this plugin. It genuinely saves time. Now I just give Claude a doc with an image, and it automatically selects the category, sets the SEO title and meta description, all without me touching the WP dashboard. Highly recommend it if you're looking to connect an AI agent to your site.

  • Finally – a native, no-compromise MCP server for WordPress

    I've been waiting for a WordPress MCP solution that doesn't require juggling multiple plugins or setting up a separate adapter service. This plugin delivers exactly that. The big differentiator: The built-in native MCP server is the killer feature. You activate the plugin, copy your connection details from MCP > Connection, and you're done.No WordPress MCP Adapter, no external services, no Docker containers. It just works.

  • Much needed AI MCP connector plugin

    The plugin is easy to install and configure. It offers a practical way to connect AI clients with WordPress and includes useful controls for managing the access. It worked smoothly and the documentation made the setup process simple. Overall, it's a solid plugin with good potential.
