## Usage



### Shortcode



Display the summarize buttons anywhere using:



```

[summarizewithai]

```



### In Theme Files



Add to your theme files using:



```php



```



### Custom Functions to Place the Shortcode Automatically



**Usage Instructions:**

1.  Copy the desired function(s) to your child theme's `functions.php` file. Or use code snippets plugin to safely implement the function.

2.  **Only activate ONE function** at a time to avoid duplicate buttons.

3.  Test on a staging site or local [WordPress installation](https://walterpinem.com/getting-started-with-wordpress/) before implementing on production.



**Function Priority:**



*   All functions use priority 20 to run after most content filters

*   You can adjust priority if needed (higher number = later execution)



**Customization Options:**



*   Modify the post type conditions to target specific content types

*   Add custom CSS classes around the shortcode output

*   Include conditional logic based on user roles or capabilities

*   Add custom meta field checks to control display per post



```php

');



    // If no paragraph found, return original content

    if ($first_paragraph_end === false) {

        return $content;

    }



    // Insert shortcode after first paragraph

    $before_insertion = substr($content, 0, $first_paragraph_end + 4); // +4 for ''

    $after_insertion = substr($content, $first_paragraph_end + 4);



    $modified_content = $before_insertion . $shortcode_output . $after_insertion;



    return $modified_content;

}

add_filter('the_content', 'summarizewithai_after_first_paragraph', 20);



/**

## Admin Settings



Configure the following settings in **Settings > Summarize with AI**:



### AI Prompt

The prompt sent to AI services. Supports dynamic placeholders:
