Ask our Support AssistantIn this video, you’ll learn how to use the WordPress Agent on WordPress.com. It covers turning on AI tools, updating fonts and layouts, improving your writing, and using AI in notes. You’ll also see how to generate and edit images in the Media Library.
📌
The WordPress Agent works best with block themes. If you’re using a classic theme, the WordPress Agent won’t appear in the editor. However, you can still generate AI images in the media library, when adding a featured image, and when using the Image block.
To enable the WordPress Agent on your site:
- Visit your Hosting Dashboard.
- Click the ⋮ (three dots) button in the action menu next to an eligible site.
- Select Settings in the drop-down menu.
- Click the “AI tools” section.
- Toggle “Enable WordPress Agent” on.
Visit our AI guidelines to learn more about using AI-generated content.

For example, ask the WordPress Agent to:
- “Rewrite this to sound more confident.”
- “Rewrite the event details in a more exciting way.”
