OpenAI Assistants on WordPress

Hello community,
I am working on integrating OpenAI assistants to WordPress, and created the project - BuddyBot plugin.

It allows admin to publish the chat bot (BuddyBot) on the frontend, and answer questions based on posts and comments on WordPress site.

I am not able to post the link but google “BuddyBot AI” and go to WordPress repo.

My next release is on user adoption, and I am working on following changes

  • Replace Vector Store with AI Training in the admin menu.
  • Rename WP Posts to Posts.
  • Rename Site Comments to Comments.
  • Update status messages:
    • “Not synchronized” → Status: Not trained.
    • For successful training, include specific data references (e.g., Status: Successfully trained with [specific data type] on [date]).
  • Ensure all dates displayed match the format set in WordPress settings.
  • Rename the “Playground” page to Test Area to clarify its purpose

Please see below plugin screenshots for your quick review.

Any suggestions or feedback to improve the project?

Update: New release focussed on usability went out today, and hoping to increase the install base: wordpress dot org/plugins/buddybot-ai-custom-ai-assistant-and-chat-agent/

Would this allow me to connect to an Assistant that I trained through the Assistant ID?

I’ve just loaded your Buddybot. It’s a great effort. But, I thought I was getting an assistant integrator. As I read your description above, again, I see it’s just going to search posts and comments. Why not take it a step further and draw in the vector store or create one to mimic the OpenAI build process. The value is easy integration of or creation of a fully functioning assistant. It seems you’ve limited your knowledgebase unnecessarily.

Also, why limit your build description of the assistant to 512 characters, but your edit on the BuddyBot tab is 1024.

You can use Rispose.com for that which indeed uses your own assistant and files and works on wordpress
