LSS – Long Story Short

GTLSS generates an AI Summary box that synthesises the content of a WordPress article into a maximum of 5 key points, helping readers quickly understand what the post is about before reading it in full.

The summary is generated via the OpenAI API and can be displayed in two ways:

• Automatically — inserted before the first H2 heading in the article
• Manually — using the [gtlss] shortcode anywhere in the content

Key Features

• AI-powered summary generation (up to 5 bullet points)
• Automatic insertion before the first H2 heading
• [gtlss] shortcode for manual placement
• Per-post generation via a dedicated metabox in the editor
• Bulk generation across multiple posts from the admin panel
• Configurable fallback position when no H2 heading is found
• Summaries stored in post meta — never re-generated without user action
• No telemetry, no tracking, no external data collection
• Secure API key storage (not autoloaded, masked in the UI)
• Fully internationalised and ready for translation

How It Works

1. Enter your OpenAI API key in GTLSS → Settings
2. Enable AI generation with the opt-in toggle
3. Open any post, click Generate in the AI Summary metabox
4. The summary is saved to the post and displayed automatically

Requirements

• An OpenAI API key (free trial or paid account)
• WordPress 6.0 or higher
• PHP 7.4 or higher

Third-Party Services

This plugin connects to the OpenAI API to generate article summaries.

When you trigger a summary generation (single post or bulk), the plugin sends the full text content of the post to OpenAI. No other data is transmitted.

Requests are made only when:

1. A valid OpenAI API key has been entered in the plugin settings
2. AI generation has been explicitly enabled by an administrator
3. A generation is manually triggered (no automatic background processing)
