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.

WP PlugIndex currently records ChatAds – Affiliate AI Chatbot for Blogs version 1.0.4 as active, updated 3mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.0.
Overview
About this plugin
ChatAds is an affiliate AI chatbot for your WordPress blog: a free, ChatGPT-style assistant that answers readers from your own content, then turns the products it recommends into your affiliate links. Most AI chat plugins cost you money, either your own OpenAI key or a monthly subscription, but ChatAds earns instead of costs. You keep 100% of every commission, and no credit card is required to start.
Readers ask questions right on the page (substitutions, comparisons, follow-ups) and get answers grounded in the post they are already reading, instead of leaving for ChatGPT.
Why add it to your blog?
Earns instead of costs. Most AI chat plugins need your own paid OpenAI key or a monthly fee. ChatAds runs the model for you for free and turns recommendations into commission.
You keep 100% of commissions. ChatAds wraps the assistant’s product picks in your own affiliate links, either Amazon links or the affiliate links already on your page, paid directly to you.
Keep readers on the page. Instead of copying your post into ChatGPT, readers ask follow-ups, comparisons, and substitutions right where they already are.
Answers grounded in your content. The assistant draws on your post, so replies are relevant to what the reader is actually reading. There is no knowledge base to build and no training step.
Zero maintenance. Theme, targeting, and monetization all live in your ChatAds dashboard, keyed off your widget key, so the plugin never needs updating when new widget features ship.
Fast and cache-friendly. The embed is a single static tag with no server-side state.
