常见问题:
Do I need any API keys?
No configuration is required. The plugin works out of the box using our managed service (10 free AI selections/month). If you prefer unlimited free usage, you can enter your own OpenAI, Unsplash, and Pexels API keys at Settings → Swell AI Image Block.
What happens when I reach the monthly free limit?
The block will show a prompt with two options: upgrade to Pro for unlimited managed-service access, or enter your own API keys for free unlimited access. The plugin never stops working — you always have the own-key path available.
Are the images free to use?
Yes. Images from Unsplash, Pexels, and Wikimedia Commons are free to use with proper attribution, which the block handles automatically.
What data is sent to your server?
Only short excerpts of text content surrounding the block (2–3 paragraphs) are sent for AI analysis. Content is processed in real-time and is not stored permanently. See our Privacy Policy for full details. If you use your own API keys, no data passes through our server at all.
How does the AI Featured Image finder work?
When editing a post or page, open the Post sidebar (the document settings panel on the right). You'll see an "AI Featured Image" panel. Click "Find Featured Image" and the plugin will search for a relevant image based on your post title. You can shuffle through options with the shuffle icon and click "Set as Featured Image" to sideload the chosen photo into your media library and apply it automatically.
Does the AI Featured Image use the same free credits?
Yes. The featured image search uses the same managed service as the block, so it counts toward your monthly free limit. If you've added your own API keys, it's unlimited at no extra cost.
What about the premium images?
Premium images from iStock are optional recommendations that require purchase. They appear with a small crown icon to distinguish them from free options.
更新日志:
- Fix: "Set as Featured Image" now works for all image sources — WordPress's built-in media_sideload_image() rejects URLs without a file extension (e.g. Unsplash raw URLs), so the sideload endpoint now downloads first then detects the image type from file content before importing
- New: Pixabay image source — adds millions of high-quality, commercially free stock photos. Enter your free Pixabay API key under Settings → Swell AI Image Block, or use the managed service to search Pixabay alongside Unsplash, Pexels, and Wikimedia Commons.
- Fix: Wikimedia Commons images now display correctly after selection — the plugin no longer attempts to construct thumbnail URLs that Wikimedia cannot serve, instead using the original file URL for images already at an appropriate size
- Fix: Wikimedia Commons images no longer show as broken — root cause was a URL regex failing on cache-timestamp query params appended by Wikimedia
- New: AI Featured Image panel in the Document sidebar — finds and sets a featured image based on your post title, with shuffle support
- Fix: AI Featured Image panel now correctly renders on WordPress 6.6+ (updated to use @wordpress/editor package)
- New: Settings page (Settings → Swell AI Image Block) for entering own API keys — enables free unlimited usage without the managed service
- New: Upgrade prompt now shows both the Pro upgrade path and the own-key free path
- Fix: Plugin renamed to Swell AI Image Block with new slug for WordPress.org compliance
- Fix: PHP prefix updated to SWIB_ (4+ characters per WP guidelines)
- Fix: Freemius files excluded from WordPress.org build

- Fix: Undefined constant linter errors for SWIB_OPENAI_API_KEY, SWIB_UNSPLASH_ACCESS_KEY, SWIB_PEXELS_API_KEY, and SWIB_PROXY_URL
