AI-Only Pages vs Share Buttons & AI-powered Summaries

AI-Only Pages gives you granular control over which search engine bots can index each page on your WordPress site — while simultaneously making those pages more discoverable and useful for AI crawlers like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity. The core idea: you have content that is perfect for AI training pipelines and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems, but you do not want that content competing for rankings in Google, Bing, or Yahoo. AI-Only Pages lets you mark those pages as AI-only: they disappear from traditional search engine indexes while becoming first-class citizens in the AI ecosystem. What it does Per-bot noindex — Block individual bots (Googlebot, Bingbot, Yandexbot, etc.) with a checkbox per bot per page. Checking one bot blocks it; the others still index normally. “Block All” master toggle — One click blocks all 10 supported search engine bots simultaneously. tags and HTTP headers — Both HTML meta tags and X-Robots-Tag HTTP headers are emitted, covering all crawling contexts. Works correctly on all public post types including Pages and custom post types. SEO plugin integration — Suppresses Yoast SEO, WP Core, and RankMath’s global tag on AI-only pages so there is no conflict between the global tag and your per-bot tags. Sitemap exclusion — AI-Only pages are automatically removed from all XML sitemaps (Yoast SEO and WP Core sitemaps are both supported). /llms-index.txt — A plain-text AI discovery file served at yoursite.com/llms-index.txt listing all AI-only pages with their titles and last-modified dates. AI crawlers can use this file to find your AI-optimised content directly. Can be toggled on/off from the settings page. Token Diet — clean AI output — When an AI crawler visits an AI-only page, the plugin serves a cleaned version of the HTML with navigation, sidebars, footers, cookie banners, inline styles, SVGs, and iframes stripped out. AI models receive pure content with minimal noise. Global Settings Page — A top-level “AI-Only Pages” menu in the WordPress admin sidebar lets you configure Token Diet and LLM Index behaviour globally, without touching code. Caching plugin notice — If WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache, or another full-page caching plugin is detected, an admin notice explains how to configure it to work alongside this plugin. The Settings Page A full settings page is available under AI-Only Pages in the WordPress admin sidebar. It provides: Section 1 — Instructions & Status: A “How It Works” guide covering the meta box, Token Diet, and LLM Index. A live, clickable URL to your /llms-index.txt file with a green/red status indicator showing whether the index is active. Section 2 — LLM Index Settings: A toggle to enable or disable /llms-index.txt globally. When disabled, the endpoint returns a 404. Section 3 — Token Diet Master Control: A master toggle to enable or disable Token Diet entirely. When off, AI bots receive raw, full HTML — identical to what human visitors see. Section 4 — Granular Token Diet Stripping: Individual toggles for each category of content stripped: Strip structural layout (headers, footers, sidebars, navigation, cookie banners) Strip tags and embedded CSS Strip elements (major token bloaters) Strip elements (maps, embeds, social widgets) Strip elements (Warning: removes WooCommerce Add to Cart buttons) Strip tags (Note: application/ld+json schema is always preserved) Supported Search Engine Bots Googlebot (Web), Googlebot-Image, Googlebot-News, Googlebot-Video, AdsBot-Google, Bingbot, Slurp (Yahoo), DuckDuckBot, Baiduspider, YandexBot. AI Bots Welcomed GPTBot, ChatGPT-User, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, YouBot, Meta-ExternalAgent, Amazonbot, Bytespider, Diffbot, cohere-ai, anthropic-ai, AI2Bot, OAI-SearchBot, and more. These bots are detected automatically and served cleaned content when they visit an AI-only page. Developer-Friendly Every major behaviour is extensible via WordPress filters. See the Developer Reference section below. The Settings class hooks into filters at priority 5, leaving priorities 10 and above free for developer overrides — so your custom add_filter() calls always win. Using the Plugin Per-page control Open any post or page in the WordPress editor. Find the AI-Only Pages meta box in the right sidebar. Check individual bots to block them, or use Block from ALL search engine bots to check all at once. Click Publish or Update to save. The noindex tags take effect immediately. Visit yoursite.com/llms-index.txt to confirm your page appears in the AI content index. Note: The master toggle requires JavaScript. The individual checkboxes always work regardless of JS state. Global settings Go to AI-Only Pages in the WordPress admin sidebar. Review the “How It Works” section and confirm your /llms-index.txt URL is live. Use the LLM Index Settings card to enable or disable the discovery file. Use the Token Diet — Master Control card to enable or disable all output cleaning. Use the Token Diet — Granular Stripping card to select exactly which HTML elements are stripped from AI output. Click Save Settings.

Share Buttons & AI-powered Summaries turns every post into an AI-aware destination. It generates an inline AI summary readers can expand next to the share buttons, and offers one-click sharing to every major social network and the leading AI assistants. Among the first plugins to integrate the native WordPress 7.0 AI Connectors API: configure your AI provider once in Settings > Connectors (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) and the plugin reuses those credentials — no API keys to manage, no extra accounts. Inline AI Summary Two-tier cascade: Level A uses the WordPress 7.0 AI Client; Level C is a built-in PHP extractive fallback with zero API cost on any WP 6.1+ install. Choose your AI model and mode: pick the provider and model used to generate summaries, or leave it on Automatic to use a fast, cost-effective model instead of the newest, most expensive one. Set how generation behaves too: AI with extractive fallback, AI only, extractive only, or disabled. Paragraph or bullet-list format: show the summary as prose (one paragraph per sentence) or as a concise bullet list, with configurable length (1-5 sentences or points). Collapsible inline block with native , data-nosnippet and Schema.org CreativeWork microdata so search engines treat it as derived content, not competition. Editor controls in the block sidebar and the classic meta box: view, edit manually, regenerate on demand, hide per post (independently from the buttons). Visitor-facing “Generate AI summary” button for posts without a stored summary, restrictable to extractive-only or open to the AI Client. Async generation via WP-Cron. [ayudawp_aiss_summary] shortcode also available. Sharing Social networks: X (Twitter), LinkedIn, Facebook, Telegram, WhatsApp, Email, Raindrop, Reddit, Bluesky, LINE, Mastodon, Threads, Pinterest. AI assistants: Claude, ChatGPT, Google AI, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity, DeepSeek, Mistral, Copilot, Qwen, Meta AI — each opens with a citation-ready prompt linking back to your URL. 6 visual styles, 4 sizes, custom colors, brand SVG icons, dark-mode auto-adaptation, drag-and-drop ordering. SEO-friendly ( or , auto-exclusion on noindex content for all major SEO plugins). Analytics Click tracking per platform and per post, timeline chart with per-platform breakdown, period comparison (previous period, same period last year, custom range), CSV export. Dashboard widget with 7-day sparkline. VigIA cross-reference (clicks vs. AI crawler visits) when active. Redis/Memcached compatible. Why use it? Cite your source naturally: when readers expand the summary or share to an AI assistant, your URL travels with the content. Reach every audience: full social spectrum plus 11 AI assistants in one place. Future-proof: built on WP 7.0 Connectors and a REST API ready for agentic clients. External services This plugin connects to third-party AI providers only when the inline AI Summary feature is enabled and an AI Connector is configured (or the WP AI Client is available). All other features — social and AI share buttons, click analytics, the extractive PHP fallback summary — run entirely on your own server and do not contact any external service. AI Summary generation When a post is saved (or when the editor / a visitor explicitly clicks “Regenerate” or “Generate AI summary”), the plugin uses the WordPress 7.0 AI Client (wp_ai_client_prompt()) to request a short summary from whichever provider you configured in Settings > Connectors. The plugin never stores your API keys — they are managed centrally by WordPress core. What is sent: Post title (plain text) Post content (HTML stripped, up to ~3000 characters of plain text) A short instruction asking the provider to return a summary What is not sent: API keys (managed by core Connectors), visitor IP addresses, user accounts, analytics data, or any other personal data of your readers. Possible destinations (depending on which Connector your administrator activates): OpenAI — Terms of use · Privacy policy Anthropic — Terms of service · Privacy policy Google AI — Terms of service · Privacy policy If you do not configure any Connector, or your WordPress version is below 7.0, the plugin falls back to the local PHP extractive summarizer and no external request is made. How to opt out Set AI Summary generation to Disabled in the AI Summary tab of the plugin settings. Or choose Extractive only to keep summaries fully local — zero external requests, ever. Or choose AI only while leaving no Connector configured — no requests will be sent, and summaries simply won’t be generated. The visitor-facing “Generate AI summary” button is off by default; if enabled, you can additionally restrict it to the extractive PHP path so visitor clicks never reach an external provider. Sharing buttons The social and AI sharing buttons render as / elements that open the respective destination only when the visitor clicks them — your server does not contact those services. The plugin’s analytics endpoint that records button clicks runs locally on your own site. Advanced Usage Shortcode parameters The [ayudawp_share_buttons] shortcode accepts several parameters: buttons: Comma-separated list of buttons to display – Example: [ayudawp_share_buttons buttons="claude,chatgpt,deepseek,twitter,mastodon"] – Available: twitter, linkedin, facebook, telegram, whatsapp, email, raindrop, reddit, bluesky, line, mastodon, threads, pinterest, claude, chatgpt, google_ai, gemini, grok, perplexity, deepseek, mistral, copilot, qwen, meta_ai style: Visual style to use – Example: [ayudawp_share_buttons style="outline"] – Options: minimal, brand, outline, dark, custom, icons-only size: Button size preset – Example: [ayudawp_share_buttons size="compact"] – Options: compact, normal, large, fluid show_icons: Show icons with text (for non-icons-only styles) – Example: [ayudawp_share_buttons show_icons="true" style="brand"] – Options: true, false icon_style: Icon corner style (for icons-only mode) – Example: [ayudawp_share_buttons style="icons-only" icon_style="circular"] – Options: circular, square alignment: Button alignment – Example: [ayudawp_share_buttons alignment="center"] – Options: left, center show_title: Show or hide the section title – Example: [ayudawp_share_buttons show_title="false"] – Options: true, false title_text: Custom title text – Example: [ayudawp_share_buttons title_text="Share this content"] title_style: Title HTML element – Example: [ayudawp_share_buttons title_style="h3"] – Options: h3, h4, h5, h6, span ai_title: Section title for AI buttons group – Example: [ayudawp_share_buttons ai_title="Summarize with AI"] social_title: Section title for social buttons group – Example: [ayudawp_share_buttons social_title="Share on social media"] Combined examples: [ayudawp_share_buttons buttons="claude,deepseek,twitter" style="brand" show_icons="true"] [ayudawp_share_buttons style="icons-only" icon_style="circular"] [ayudawp_share_buttons show_title="true" title_text="Share or Summarize" title_style="h3"] [ayudawp_share_buttons ai_title="Summarize with AI" social_title="Share" style="outline" show_icons="true"] [ayudawp_share_buttons buttons="chatgpt,qwen,meta_ai,mastodon,threads" size="compact" style="brand"] [ayudawp_share_buttons style="icons-only" icon_style="square" size="large"] [ayudawp_share_buttons size="fluid" style="outline" show_icons="true"] AI summary shortcode The [ayudawp_aiss_summary] shortcode renders the AI-generated summary as a standalone collapsible block. Useful when you want to place the summary somewhere other than where the share buttons are auto-inserted, or when you have buttons disabled but still want to surface the summary. post_id: Render the summary of a specific post – Example: [ayudawp_aiss_summary post_id="123"] – Defaults to the current post in the loop when omitted The shortcode outputs nothing when the post has no stored summary, so it is safe to drop into templates without conditional wrappers. CSS Customization Guide The plugin uses CSS custom properties for all brand colors. You can override these in your theme to change any platform color globally: Override platform colors: .ayudawp-share-buttons { –ayudawp-claude: #ff0000; –ayudawp-chatgpt: #00ff00; } Main container classes: – .ayudawp-share-buttons – Main wrapper container – .ayudawp-buttons-container – Direct container for all buttons – .ayudawp-title – Title element before buttons – .ayudawp-section-title – Section title with extra top margin – .ayudawp-aiss-centered – Applied when centered alignment is enabled Button classes: – .ayudawp-share-btn – Base class for all buttons (both and elements) – .ayudawp-icon-wrapper – Container for button icons – .ayudawp-button-text – Text label inside buttons – .ayudawp-icon – SVG icon element Style modifier classes: – .brand – Brand colors style – .outline – Outline style (brand-colored borders) – .minimal – Minimal style – .dark – Dark background style – .custom – Custom colors style – .icons-only – Icons-only mode – .with-icons – Text buttons with icons – .circular – Circular icon buttons – .square – Square icon buttons Size modifier classes: – .size-compact – Compact button size – .size-large – Large button size – .size-fluid – Fluid width buttons Platform-specific classes (on buttons): – .twitter, .linkedin, .facebook, .telegram, .whatsapp – .email, .raindrop, .reddit, .bluesky, .line – .mastodon, .threads, .pinterest – .claude, .chatgpt, .google-ai, .gemini, .grok – .perplexity, .deepseek, .mistral, .copilot – .qwen, .meta-ai – .ai – Applied to all AI platform buttons Example: Change Claude button color: .ayudawp-share-buttons { –ayudawp-claude: #your-color; } Example: Change all AI buttons background: .ayudawp-share-buttons .ayudawp-share-btn.ai { background: #f0f0f0; } Example: Hide specific button: .ayudawp-share-btn.facebook { display: none; } Customize or remove separator lines: The main container has top and bottom border lines. You can hide either of them from the settings (Share Buttons → Separator lines) with no code. CSS is only needed to replace them with your own style: .ayudawp-share-buttons { border-top: 2px dashed #ccc; border-bottom: 2px dashed #ccc; } Important notes: – The use of !important is no longer needed for most overrides – Use CSS custom properties to change brand colors cleanly – Test on both desktop and mobile viewports – Icons-only buttons have fixed dimensions (44px default, 36px compact, 54px large) Technical Details System requirements WordPress 6.1 or higher (7.0+ for AI-generated summaries) PHP 7.4 or higher (compatible up to PHP 8.4) Theme compatible with wp_head() and wp_footer() Performance features Modular file structure for maximum efficiency Selective loading of resources (CSS/JS only where buttons display) No external dependencies Optimized CSS with custom properties and minimal specificity Lightweight SVG icons (under 1KB each) Minimal database impact: analytics queries are cached (5 min) and compatible with persistent object cache (Redis, Memcached) Smart responsive layouts REST API for lightweight analytics data retrieval Developer features Clean, documented code WordPress coding standards compliant Hook-based architecture Modular class structure in /includes folder Extensible icon system using Simple Icons Translation ready Comprehensive shortcode API SEO-friendly markup options Post meta for individual exclusions Centralized platform color definitions Support Need private support or custom development?
