Description
Smart AI Chatbot with OpenRouter by Jayanta adds a production-ready AI assistant to your public WordPress site. It reads published public content, finds relevant pages for each visitor question, and asks OpenRouter to answer using only that site context.
Features:
- Floating frontend chat widget.
- Answers grounded in published site content.
- Session chat history stored in the visitor browser session.
- Admin settings for API key, model, widget copy, color, indexed post types, source limits, token limits, temperature, rate limits, and logs.
- Server-side OpenRouter calls so API keys are not exposed.
- WordPress nonce protection for chat requests.
- Hourly per-visitor rate limiting.
- Compact admin chat logs.
- Manual content index rebuild.
- Automatic scheduled index rebuild after published content changes.
