Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Ask Adam Doc It is a free-forever document library for WordPress. Upload PDFs, Word documents, spreadsheets, images, and any other file types your media library accepts, then organize them with categories and surface them with a shortcode, a Gutenberg block, or built-in archive templates.

0 built-in AI Client ( wp_ai_client_prompt() ). There is no API key to configure in the plugin — install and configure an AI provider plugin (such as AI Provider for OpenAI) under Settings → Connectors, and semantic search and document summaries light up automatically. The plugin works fully without any AI provider; AI is purely optional.

External Services

0 AI Client (Settings → Connectors), Ask Adam Doc It sends document summary text to that provider to generate on-demand summaries. When an OpenAI credential is available for embeddings (via an AI provider plugin or the aadi_openai_api_key filter), document summary text is also sent to the OpenAI API to generate search embeddings.

What data is sent:

  • Document metadata (admin-controlled): The document title, excerpt, AI Search Summary field, and category names for each published document. The plugin does not intentionally collect or transmit WordPress account, profile, or visitor data, but because these fields are authored by site administrators, any personal information an admin types into them (for example, a person’s name in a document title) will be sent to OpenAI as part of the embedding source text.
  • Visitor search text (visitor-controlled): When a visitor performs an AI search, the raw search query they typed is sent to OpenAI to generate a query embedding for semantic matching. The plugin cannot inspect this text in advance, so if visitors enter personal information (names, email addresses, etc.) it will be transmitted to OpenAI as part of the query. No IP address, user ID, cookie, or other identifier is attached to either request.

When data is sent: Document metadata is sent when a document is published or updated (via WP-Cron, a few seconds after save), or when an admin manually regenerates an embedding. Visitor search text is sent each time a visitor submits an AI-mode search.

This feature is entirely optional. The plugin works fully without any AI provider using keyword search.

0 AI Client (Settings → Connectors). The data-handling, privacy policy, and terms of that provider apply — review them for the connector you install (for example, AI Provider for OpenAI sends data to the OpenAI API).

Embeddings (semantic search): When an OpenAI credential is available, document summary text and visitor search queries are sent to the OpenAI API.
