= Important note on AI content =

You are responsible for reviewing AI-generated content for accuracy, originality and compliance before publishing. Always proofread.

== External services ==

This plugin connects to the following third-party services. No data is sent anywhere unless you configure and use the relevant feature.

**OpenAI API** — Required for content generation. When you generate a post, your topic brief, tone, audience and related prompt data are sent to OpenAI to produce the article text and keywords. This happens only when you start a generation. See the OpenAI Terms of Use (https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use) and Privacy Policy (https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy).

**Wikimedia Commons API** — Used to find royalty-free images. Your image search query (derived from the post topic) is sent to Wikimedia. See https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Policy:Privacy_policy.

**Unsplash, Pexels, Pixabay (Pro)** — Optional premium image sources. If you enable one and add its API key, your image search query is sent to that provider. See their respective terms and privacy policies: Unsplash (https://unsplash.com/terms), Pexels (https://www.pexels.com/terms-of-service/), Pixabay (https://pixabay.com/service/terms/).

**Freemius** — Used for premium licensing, checkout and updates. When you purchase or activate a license, account and license data is processed by Freemius. See https://freemius.com/privacy/.

== Installation ==

1. Upload the plugin files to `/wp-content/plugins/orbis-ai-blog-generator`, or install it through the Plugins screen in WordPress.
2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen.
3. Go to **Orbis AI** in the admin menu and open **Settings**.
4. Enter your OpenAI API key and click **Test connection**.
5. Set your content defaults, then generate your first post from the dashboard.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Do I need an OpenAI API key? =

Yes. The plugin uses your own OpenAI API key so you have full control over the model used and your spending. You can get a key from the OpenAI dashboard.

= Is the content unique? =

OpenAI generates fresh text for each request, but you should always review posts for accuracy and originality before publishing. The Pro version adds an automatic duplicate-content check against your existing posts.

= How many posts can I generate on the free plan? =

Up to 5 posts per day. The Pro version removes this limit and adds scheduled campaigns for hands-off publishing.

= Does it post automatically? =

Automated, scheduled campaigns are a Pro feature. On the free plan you generate posts manually from the dashboard.

= Will it work on low-traffic sites? =

Manual generation works on any site. Scheduled campaigns (Pro) rely on WordPress cron, which is triggered by site visits — for precise timing on low-traffic sites, set up a real server cron to call wp-cron.php.
