## Description

The “Auto Summarize Post Content” plugin for WordPress streamlines the process of
generating concise summaries for your content and effortlessly displays them at 
the top or bottom of your posts. This plugin saves your readers valuable time by
providing them with a brief overview of the main points before delving into the 
full article.

Using cutting-edge algorithms, the plugin analyzes your post content and extracts
the most pertinent information, ensuring that the generated summaries are accurate
and informative. Elevate the user experience on your WordPress website with the “
Auto Summarize Post Content” plugin, captivating your audience right from the start.

### New features from version 1.1.0

 * You can select the template of the summary box (clean, light, and dark).
 * Remove transition words for the summarized sentence to make it more accurate.
 * Sort summary sentences by relevance score.

### How do the plugin works?

The “Auto Summarize Post Content” plugin operates by employing a two-step process
to generate summaries.

Firstly, it identifies the most repeated words within the post content. By analyzing
the frequency of occurrence, the plugin determines which words are the most significant
and likely to convey the key points of the text.

Secondly, the plugin applies a custom function to remove any irrelevant or insignificant
words from the identified list of repeated words. This function filters out unnecessary
terms, such as common articles, prepositions, and other words that do not contribute
substantially to the overall meaning of the content.

By combining these two steps, the “Auto Summarize Post Content” plugin intelligently
generates a concise summary that highlights the essential information within the
post. This summary is then displayed at the top or bottom of the post, providing
readers with a quick and informative overview before they delve into the complete
article.

Sadly it didn’t generate a summary but just took random sentences from the text 
and put them as a summary. In my test it took a sentence from the intro and 2 sentences
from the text. Just random sentences that were not important. I did a test on 2 
different articles and the outcome was the same.
