UrlifyWriter | AI Content Generator from URLs

Description

UrlifyWriter is an AI content generator for WordPress focused on content automation.

  • URL Article: Paste a URL (allowed by robots.txt) to generate a clean WordPress post.
  • Keywords Articles: Enter keywords and instructions to generate single or multiple posts.
  • AutoScan: Monitor a page (for example, a homepage or listing). The plugin checks it at intervals, detects new links, writes original AI posts, and publishes them automatically according to your configuration.

The plugin respects robots.txt and does not bypass paywalls or restricted content.
Content generation is handled by the UrlifyWriter external service, which uses GPT-based models via OpenAI internally.

Images

UrlifyWriter supports multiple image sources:

  • AI-generated images:
    AI images may be included depending on your license plan.
    If you add your own OpenAI API key, you can generate AI images regardless of your license.

  • Pixabay:
    Royalty-free stock images. UrlifyWriter can include a limited number of Pixabay images by default.
    Adding your own Pixabay API key allows you to include more images per article.

  • Source images:
    UrlifyWriter can attempt to reuse images from the original source page.
    The extracted image may vary depending on the structure and markup of the source website, and the selected image may not always match the main featured image.
    You are responsible for ensuring that you have the appropriate rights or permission to reuse any source images.

FAQ

Does AutoScan publish automatically?

Yes. AutoScan can publish automatically when new items are detected. You control how many items it processes per run and whether it creates drafts or publishes.

Does it scrape entire websites?

No. AutoScan targets a single page that you specify. It detects new links on that page and uses them as context to generate original articles.

Which AI technology is used?

Content and optional image generation are handled by the UrlifyWriter external service.
In some cases (such as listing available models), the plugin may connect directly to third-party AI provider APIs if the user configures their own API keys.

Can I use Pixabay images?

Yes. Pixabay images can be included without an API key. Adding your own key enables additional images per article.

Is there a review step before publishing?

You can manually create drafts using the URL or keyword tools. AutoScan publishes automatically.
