Post Classifier AI for WordPress

Post Classifier AI is a professional-grade WordPress plugin that leverages the Google Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite API to automate post categorization. Built with a focus on clean architecture and performance, it removes the manual effort of tagging content while ensuring your site's taxonomy remains consistent.

🚀 Key Features

• Automated Taxonomy: Analyzes post content on publish and suggests 3 highly relevant categories.
• Smart Cleanup: Automatically removes the default "Uncategorized" tag if AI categories are found.
• Optimized Performance: Trims content before API transmission to ensure fast execution and lower latency.
• Secure Configuration: Dedicated Settings UI for API Key management using the WordPress Settings API.
• Loop Protection: Implements native WordPress hooks safely to prevent recursive save issues.

🛠️ Technical Implementation

This project was designed using Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) principles and follows WordPress Coding Standards:

• Service Layer: Uses wp_remote_post for secure communication with external APIs.
• Taxonomy Logic: Uses term_exists and wp_insert_term to dynamically manage categories without duplication.
• Data Integrity: Implements rigorous sanitization and capability checks (manage_options).

2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
