BotBard AI Editor

Updated 3 min read

BotBard AI Editor lets site owners describe a change in plain language and see it applied to their WordPress content without touching any code.

It suits people who want to update pages, posts, block templates or media by typing a request rather than editing blocks or files by hand, and who want a review step before anything reaches visitors. Every proposed change appears in a private preview, visible only to the logged-in user, and nothing is published until they press Publish.

The plugin connects to BotBard’s hosted service, which requires a free account signed in with an email address. When a request is sent, BotBard’s service receives the request text, the content of the item being edited, and details like theme colors, fonts, block names, and existing categories or tags, then returns a list of proposed WordPress operations rather than code.

Results appear directly in the WordPress editor as page, post, template or media changes, applied through standard WordPress functions such as wp_update_post and wp_insert_post.

Key Features of BotBard AI Editor

Plain-text content editing. Describe a change to text, headings, buttons or block layout on a page or post, and review the proposed result before it goes live. Nothing reaches visitors until the change is published.

Draft creation and publishing control. Ask for new posts or pages and they are created as drafts for review first. Requests can also cover publishing, scheduling and status changes on existing content.

Category and tag assignment. BotBard can apply categories and tags to content, choosing from the terms already set up on the site rather than inventing new ones.

Block theme template editing. On sites using a block theme, BotBard can adjust templates and template parts, including the header and footer, along with colors, spacing, typography and borders through block settings.

Make Hero section generator. Make Hero builds a hero section for a page, producing headline text, a subheadline, button labels and layout settings, along with generated video and image files that are saved to the Media Library.

Safeguards against lost or conflicting edits. Every action runs through standard WordPress functions with a capability check, and a checksum comparison stops BotBard from publishing over a change someone else made while a request was pending. Published edits also leave a normal WordPress revision, so earlier versions can be restored.

How to Install BotBard AI Editor

Step 1: Install and activate. From the dashboard, go to Plugins > Add New Plugin, search for BotBard AI Editor, then click Install Now followed by Activate.

Step 4: Confirm with the emailed code. Enter the one-time code sent by email to complete sign-in and connect the account.

Step 5: Choose content and describe a change. Select a page, post or template, then type a description of the change to have BotBard propose it for review.

Good to Know About BotBard AI Editor

According to the plugin’s FAQ, an active BotBard account is required to use the editor, and the free plan allows a limited number of AI edits that reset monthly. The developer notes that requests needing changes to theme or plugin code are declined by design, since the plugin cannot write files under any circumstance.

It also clarifies that template, header and footer editing depends on using a block theme, since those elements are PHP files on classic themes. Data sent to the BotBard service is limited to the content being edited, account details, and site information such as theme styling and existing terms; visitor data, user data and site files are never transmitted.
