## Description

AI Post Visualizer is a powerful WordPress plugin designed to generate and manage
AI-powered images for your posts. The plugin integrates with the DALL·E API to generate
custom images based on keywords you provide. Easily manage your post’s featured 
images, filter your posts, and set viewer modes (light/dark) for the admin interface.

#### Features

 * **Generate Images with DALL·E**: Generate AI-powered images with DALL·E for your
   WordPress posts.
 * **Featured Image Management**: Set generated images as featured images for any
   WordPress post with one click.
 * **History Management**: Keep track of generated images for each post and restore
   the original featured image if needed.
 * **Viewer Mode**: Toggle between light and dark modes for the admin panel interface.
 * **Customizable Post Filtering**: Easily filter posts by post type, alphabetical
   order, and date.
 * **Data Retention Settings**: Control whether to retain or remove plugin data 
   when uninstalling.
 * **Role-Based Access Controls**: Plugin UI requires post editing permissions; 
   settings changes are restricted to administrators.

### Usage

Note: Access to the plugin UI requires the `edit_posts` capability (typically Editor
and above). Actions that modify a specific post require permission to edit that 
post, and image generation/upload requires media upload permissions.

#### Configure Settings

 1. Navigate to the **AI Post Visualizer** settings page in the WordPress admin menu.
 2. Configure your OpenAI API key using one of the following methods:
 3.  * **Recommended (server-managed)**: set an environment variable named `AIPV_OPENAI_API_KEY`,
       or define `AIPV_OPENAI_API_KEY` as a constant in `wp-config.php`. When a server-
       managed key is detected, the Settings field is disabled.
     * **Via the Settings screen**: enter your key in the API key field. For security,
       the value is never displayed after saving (you can paste a new value to update
       it).
     * If you don’t have an API key yet, sign up for one at [OpenAI](https://platform.openai.com/)
       and retrieve your API key from [the API keys page](https://platform.openai.com/api-keys).
 4. Optionally, configure additional settings such as **Data Retention** (see “Manage
    Data Retention” below).
 5. Save your changes.

#### Generate AI Images

 1. Go to the **Generate** tab within the AI Post Visualizer interface.
 2. In the **Keyword Input** field, type in a keyword or phrase that best describes
    the image you want to generate.
 3. Set the number of images to generate (default: 1) and choose the desired resolution(
    default: 256×256).
 4.  * Available resolutions include:
        - 256×256
        - 512×512
        - 1024×1024
     * The plugin displays an estimated cost breakdown based on current OpenAI pricing;
       always verify actual pricing in your OpenAI account.
 5. Click the **Render Images** button to initiate the image generation process.
 6.  * A loading indicator will appear while your images are being rendered.
 7. Once complete, your generated images will appear in the **Rendered Images** section
    below and also appear in the **Generation History** sidebar.

#### Manage Featured Images

 1. Navigate to the **Posts** tab.
 2. Browse through your posts and locate the one you wish to update with a new featured
    image.
 3. Click the **Generate New Image** button for the post you want to update.
 4. You can either:
 5.  * Follow the **Generate AI Images** step to generate new images, or
     * Load a previously generated set of images from the **Generation History** sidebar.
 6. Once the images have rendered, find the image you want to use under **Rendered 
    Images**.
 7. Click the **Set Featured Image** button underneath the image you want to apply 
    to your post.
 8. If at any time you want to undo the change, you can revert to the original featured
    image by clicking the **Revert to Original** button.

#### Filter Posts

 1. Use the available filters to search or sort your posts:
 2.  * **Post Types**: Filter by specific post types (e.g., posts, pages).
     * **Alphabetical Order**: Sort posts by title in ascending or descending order.
     * **Date**: Sort posts by creation date (newest or oldest first).
 3. You can also use the **Search** field to look for posts by title, helping you quickly
    find the one you need.
 4. If you would like to clear all filters you can click the **Reset Filters** button
    to reset your posts view.

#### Manage Data Retention

 1. Go to the **Settings** tab to manage data retention settings.
 2. Toggle the **Data Retention** option to enable or disable automatic data removal
    upon plugin uninstallation:
 3.  * **Enabled**: All plugin-related data (including generated images and settings)
       will be removed when the plugin is uninstalled.
     * **Disabled**: Data will be retained after plugin uninstallation for future use.

## FAQ

### How do I get a DALL·E API key?

You can sign up and retrieve your DALL·E API key at [OpenAI](https://platform.openai.com/).

### Can I configure the API key via environment variable or wp-config.php?

Yes. You can set `AIPV_OPENAI_API_KEY` as an environment variable or define it as
a constant in `wp-config.php`. When a server-managed key is detected, the Settings
input is disabled and the key cannot be edited from the WordPress admin.

### Is my API key stored securely?

If you enter the key in the plugin Settings UI, it is stored encrypted in the WordPress
database and is never displayed back in the UI after saving. For the best security
posture, use a server-managed key via environment variable/constant.

### Why does the Generate screen show a cost estimate?

The Generate screen shows an estimated cost per image and a total estimate based
on OpenAI pricing. These are estimates only and pricing can change.

### Can I revert to the original featured image?

Yes, you can revert back to the original featured image at any time using the “Revert
to Original” button. **NOTE** The original featured image will still need to exist
in the WordPress Media Library for you to be able to revert back to it.

### What happens to my images when I uninstall the plugin?

If the **Data Retention** toggle is enabled, all plugin-related data (including 
generated images) will be removed when the plugin is uninstalled.
