DraftForge is an AI content generator and blog post writer for WordPress. Type one topic and it writes a complete, structured draft post — SEO-friendly title, HTML body, suggested categories and tags — then adds a featured image. The result is saved as a draft (never auto-published) so you stay in full editorial control.
All generation runs through the WordPress AI Client that ships with WordPress 7.0. You choose and configure your AI provider once, at the site level, and DraftForge uses it.
If the WordPress AI Client has no image model available on your site, DraftForge can optionally generate the featured image directly with OpenAI — you provide your own key on the Settings page (or via a constant) and pick the image model your key supports. If neither is available, a free stock photo is used so the draft still has an image.
Great for bloggers, content marketers, and agencies who want to go from idea to a ready-to-edit first draft in seconds instead of staring at a blank editor.
What it does
You stay in control
All AI text and image generation is primarily performed by the WordPress AI Client (part of WordPress core since 7.0), which sends your topic — and a short prompt derived from the generated title, for the image — to whichever AI provider you have configured for your site. The plugin is not tied to any specific provider; please refer to your configured provider’s terms and privacy policy for how your data is handled. When your provider returns a generated image as a URL rather than inline data, the plugin downloads the image from that provider-supplied URL so it can be saved to your Media Library.
OpenAI API (https://api.openai.com)
Optional, used only as an image fallback when the WordPress AI Client has no image model and you have provided an OpenAI key on the Settings page (or via the OPENAI_API_KEY constant).
LoremFlickr (https://loremflickr.com)
Used only as a last-resort fallback: if neither the AI Client nor the direct OpenAI call can generate an image, the plugin fetches a free stock photo so the draft still has a featured image.
LoremFlickr (https://loremflickr.com)
Used only as a last-resort fallback: if the configured AI provider cannot generate an image, the plugin fetches a free stock photo so the draft still has a featured image.
draftforge-ai-draft-poster folder to /wp-content/plugins/, or install the ZIP via Plugins Add New Upload.Yes. It generates a full blog post draft — title, body, categories, tags, and a featured image — from a single topic, through the WordPress AI Client.
Usually no — DraftForge uses the WordPress AI Client, so you configure your AI provider once at the site level. You only need to enter an OpenAI key (on the Settings page or via the OPENAI_API_KEY constant) if you want the direct image fallback for sites where the AI Client has no image model.
On AI Draft Poster Settings, enter your OpenAI key and save. The Image model dropdown then lists the image models your key can actually access, so you can select the one to use (e.g. DALL·E 3 or gpt-image).
Whichever one you have configured for the WordPress AI Client. DraftForge does not lock you to a specific provider.
Always. Posts are created as drafts, so you can review, rewrite, and add your own touch before publishing.
No. Every post is created as a draft for you to review and publish manually.
If the provider you configured for the WordPress AI Client cannot generate an image (for example its model or your key lacks image access), the plugin falls back to a free LoremFlickr stock photo so the draft still has a featured image. Once your provider has image access, AI-generated images are used automatically.
