AI powered Toolbar for writing and translating adds practical AI actions to WordPress text fields, supported editor blocks, SEO fields, forms, and media details.
The toolbar appears when you focus a compatible field and provides up to five configurable functions:
- Write content from your input
- Generate content from available page context
- Improve spelling, grammar, and clarity without changing the meaning
- Format and structure rich text
- Translate content into selected languages
You decide which functions appear in the toolbar and whether the fully rounded toolbar is horizontal or vertical. It can be moved, collapsed when it is in the way, and remembers an exact anchored position and visibility in the current browser. Use the Info icon or the settings screen to replay the guided tour.
The plugin uses your own OpenAI API key. You can choose between current OpenAI models, customize the writing instructions, select translation languages, choose one selected language as the standard output language, and add reusable terminology or brand guidance through the Knowledge Base. The WordPress site language is used initially when it is available; your explicit standard-language choice then controls writing, generation, SEO, excerpt, and media output.
Existing settings from earlier Planet 9 releases remain compatible. Planet 9 is retained only as the plugin author; the plugin interface itself is function-focused.
Editor compatibility
The toolbar works with supported standard and Advanced Custom Fields text inputs, TinyMCE-based editors, core Block Editor text blocks, Yoast focus-keyphrase and meta-description fields, WordPress media details, and Contact Form 7 messages. It also detects compatible fields in same-origin editor frames used by supported page builders. Browser security prevents a parent page from accessing cross-origin editor frames.
For media images, the toolbar can analyze the selected image together with its filename, existing attachment metadata, attached page, up to three locally matched published posts or pages, current editing context, and matching Knowledge Base guidance. This lightweight context lookup stays inside WordPress and does not scrape external websites.
External Services
This plugin connects to OpenAI’s Responses API when a user deliberately activates a toolbar function.
Depending on the action, the request can include the active field content and label, relevant text from the current editing screen, the website name and description, matching Knowledge Base guidance, the configured standard language or selected translation target, and the configured writing instructions. For an image-media field, the request also includes a validated URL for the selected WordPress image, its filename and saved metadata, its attached-page context, and excerpts from up to three locally matched published posts or pages. OpenAI handles this image data together with the supplied textual context.
No request is made until a user selects a toolbar action. The plugin does not operate its own external tracking or content-storage service.
