AutomateIndex

外掛說明

AutomateIndex is AI visibility infrastructure for the open web. This connector links a WordPress site to owner-approved AutomateIndex setup so it can publish reviewed machine-readable guidance and verify that the connector is working from the AutomateIndex dashboard.

The plugin is configured from an AutomateIndex account. After the site owner approves access, AutomateIndex can install the connector, save the site-specific settings, and run final Checks from the AutomateIndex dashboard. It is not a standalone generic file generator; it is the WordPress connector for an AutomateIndex site workflow.

What the connector can do:

  • Serve owner-approved AutomateIndex visibility files such as robots.txt, llms.txt, and ai-catalog.json, plus related guidance files when enabled by the site owner.
  • Provide AutomateIndex-managed machine-readable responses for approved automated requests.
  • Send connector status and monitoring proof to AutomateIndex so the dashboard can verify setup.

What the connector does not do:

  • It does not promise or guarantee AI rankings, citations, traffic, indexing, or revenue.
  • It does not place visible public credits or links on the front end.
  • It does not block ordinary human visitors or normal search crawler access by default.

External service

This plugin connects to AutomateIndex at https://app.automateindex.com after the site owner configures the connector from an AutomateIndex account.

The external service is used to deliver owner-approved guidance file content, verify connector health, and support dashboard checks. Depending on the enabled options, the plugin may send the AutomateIndex site ID, integration ID, plugin version, AutomateIndex-managed request path, response status, content type, user agent, referer, and an HMAC-hashed IP value for likely automated requests. The raw provider secret is stored in WordPress options and is sent only to authenticate AutomateIndex API requests. The plugin does not intentionally send raw IP addresses.

常見問題集

Does this plugin guarantee AI search visibility?

No. AutomateIndex helps publish and verify machine-readable guidance. It does not guarantee rankings, citations, indexing, traffic, or revenue.

Does this plugin change normal pages?

No. The connector serves selected machine-readable paths for the configured site. Ordinary human pages and normal search access remain open by default.

Does this plugin require an AutomateIndex account?

Yes. The plugin needs site-specific settings from AutomateIndex before it can serve generated files or send monitoring proof.

Where are settings stored?

Settings are stored in WordPress options. The provider secret is never displayed back in the WordPress settings form after it is saved.

What happens when I delete the plugin?

Deleting the plugin clears the saved AutomateIndex connector settings, transient connector health state, and any unchanged AutomateIndex-managed root robots.txt file from WordPress.
