The plugin keeps the existing workflow lightweight and uses native WordPress options and post metadata. It does not create custom database tables and does not connect to external services. #### Content classification Each supported post, page, or public custom post type can be assigned one of four levels: * No significant AI use * AI-assisted content * AI-generated and human-reviewed content * Fully AI-generated content The public notice can be displayed automatically before or after the content, hidden for a specific item, or inserted manually with a shortcode. #### Image classification Each image attachment can be classified independently: * No significant AI use * AI-assisted image * AI-generated and human-reviewed image * Fully AI-generated image The classification is saved on the Media Library attachment, so it follows the image when the same file is reused. A compact or boxed badge can be displayed below classified Image blocks. #### Main features * Content and image AI-use classification * Gutenberg and Classic Editor support * Media Library integration * Optional automatic notices and image badges * Configurable default levels * Content and image shortcodes * REST API metadata registration * DB Solution HUB interface * Translation-ready and compatible with Loco Translate #### Important notice This plugin is a technical transparency tool. It does not provide legal advice and does not guarantee compliance with the EU AI Act, GDPR, or any other law. Site owners remain responsible for selecting the appropriate classification and disclosure. ### Privacy DB – AI Act Transparency does not collect, transmit, or share personal data with external services. ### External Services The plugin does not connect to external services. ## Screenshots [⌊DB Solution HUB⌉⌊DB Solution HUB⌉[ DB Solution HUB [⌊Content classification preferences⌉⌊Content classification preferences⌉[ Content classification preferences [⌊Public content notice settings⌉⌊Public content notice settings⌉[ Public content notice settings [⌊Image classification preferences⌉⌊Image classification preferences⌉[ Image classification preferences [⌊AI Transparency panel in the post editor⌉⌊AI Transparency panel in the post editor⌉[ AI Transparency panel in the post editor [⌊AI Transparency controls for an Image block⌉⌊AI Transparency controls for an Image block⌉[ AI Transparency controls for an Image block [⌊Media Library classification fields⌉⌊Media Library classification fields⌉[ Media Library classification fields [⌊Frontend content notice and image badge⌉⌊Frontend content notice and image badge⌉[ Frontend content notice and image badge ## Installation 1.

Automatic AI detectors can be inaccurate and are not used by this plugin. ### Does the plugin guarantee AI Act compliance? No. It helps document and communicate AI use, but legal obligations depend on the content, context, and applicable law. ### Is it compatible with Loco Translate? Yes. All interface strings use the `db-ai-act-transparency` text domain. A translation template is included in the `languages` folder. ### Does it create custom database tables? No. It uses native WordPress options and metadata. ### Does image classification follow a reused image? Yes. The value is stored on the attachment in the Media Library. ### What content shortcodes are available? [db_ai_transparency] ``` [db_ai_transparency id="123"] [db_ai_transparency force="yes"] [db_ai_transparency level="fully_generated"] ``` ### What image shortcodes are available? [db_ai_image_transparency id=”456″] ``` [db_ai_image_transparency id="456" force="yes"] [db_ai_image_transparency id="456" level="fully_generated"] ``` The ID must be the attachment ID from the WordPress Media Library. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “DB – AI Act Transparency” is open source software.
