Luis Rita AI Blog Writer with Sources

Updated 3 min read

Luis Rita AI Blog Writer with Sources helps site owners turn a content brief and a set of reference links into a draft blog post built from standard WordPress blocks.

It is aimed at anyone who wants AI assistance with first drafts while keeping full editorial control, since nothing is ever published automatically and every generation lands as a draft awaiting human review.

The plugin works entirely with an API key you supply to your chosen provider: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or xAI, selecting a GPT, Claude, Gemini, or Grok model accordingly.

After you enter a brief, optionally attach up to eight source URLs, and let the job run through its outline and draft stages, the generated content, sources, warnings, and metadata suggestions appear as a normal editable post draft inside the WordPress editor.

Key Features of Luis Rita AI Blog Writer with Sources

Bring your own provider key. Connect an API key from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or xAI and pick the matching GPT, Claude, Gemini, or Grok model. There is no bundled account or subscription from the plugin author, so usage is billed directly by the provider you choose.

Delegated or guided workflow. Choose a Delegated workflow for hands-off generation or a Guided workflow that lets you review and adjust the outline before the draft stage runs. Either way, up to eight source URLs can be attached to ground the content.

Draft with sources and provenance. Each completed job produces a standard WordPress draft along with its sources, warnings, metadata suggestions, and provenance details. Generation never publishes a post directly, leaving every draft for an editor to check and finish.

Writer profiles tied to authors. Save writer profiles linked to WordPress author accounts so generated drafts can reflect a consistent voice per author. Profiles can also be proposed and edited through a dedicated screen.

Usage tracking with a cost ceiling. The plugin records provider usage per request and lets you set an optional estimated cost ceiling, giving visibility into consumption as jobs run. This helps keep an eye on provider billing without the plugin itself handling any payments.

Section rewriting in the editor. From the block editor sidebar, you can send a section’s content and an instruction back to the AI provider for a rewrite, using the source notes already attached to that section. This keeps refinement inside the normal WordPress editing screen rather than a separate tool.

How to Install Luis Rita AI Blog Writer with Sources

Step 1: Install and activate. From the dashboard, go to Plugins > Add New Plugin, search for Luis Rita AI Blog Writer with Sources, click Install Now, then Activate.

Step 2: Open the settings screen. Go to AI Blog Writer > Settings to begin configuration.

Step 3: Connect a provider and key. Choose a provider and model, enter its API key, save the changes, and use Test Connection to confirm it works.

Step 4: Create your first draft. Open New Article, review the risk acknowledgement, and submit a brief to start a job that produces an editable draft.

Step 5: Check jobs if using WP-Cron alternatives. On low-traffic sites or where DISABLE_WP_CRON is set, keep the job screen open or schedule a server call to wp-cron.php every minute so generation stages continue to advance.

Good to Know About Luis Rita AI Blog Writer with Sources

According to the plugin’s documentation, saving API keys requires the Sodium extension, and keys can instead be defined in wp-config.php for stronger isolation, in which case they cannot be edited from the settings screen.

The developer notes that deactivating the plugin leaves generated posts and stored data intact, and that it supports multisite, with each site keeping its own keys, settings, jobs, and writer profiles. Generation runs as resumable WP-Cron stages, so sites with low traffic or DISABLE_WP_CRON enabled need the job screen open or a server scheduler calling wp-cron.php regularly for jobs to progress.
