AI settings — Plugixa FAQ

The AI tab configures which provider the AI FAQ Generator uses and tunes how much it generates. API keys are stored encrypted — never shown in plaintext after save.

Go to Plugixa FAQ → Settings → AI.

Temperature and max tokens are starting defaults — each AI Generator run can override them.

Provider selection

OpenAI

  • Most reliable answers, highest cost per request.
  • Models: GPT-4o, GPT-4o mini, GPT-4 Turbo, GPT-3.5 Turbo.
  • Best for: production use, critical docs.

  • Lower cost, often faster.

  • Best for: bulk generation, non-critical content, experimentation.

Key storage

API keys are encrypted at rest using WordPress salts (AUTH_KEY, SECURE_AUTH_KEY). After save, the field shows •••••••• — you can overwrite with a new key, but you can’t read the saved one back.
