Admin Dashboard Overview
Accessing the Settings
Once the plugin is installed and activated, you can access the configuration panel from your WordPress Sidebar. Look for the Supervised AI Bots menu item.
Settings Interface
The Admin Dashboard is designed for simplicity, focusing on a central configuration area where you manage the connection between your WordPress site and the Supervised AI platform.
Bot URL Configuration
The primary feature of the dashboard is the Chatbot URL Input. This is a large text area where you register the hosted URLs for your various AI agents.
- URL Entry: Enter each Supervised AI chatbot URL on a new line.
- Automatic ID Mapping: The plugin assigns an ID to each bot based on its line number in this text area.
- The URL on Line 1 becomes
id="1". - The URL on Line 2 becomes
id="2", and so on.
- The URL on Line 1 becomes
Saving Changes
After adding or updating your URLs, click the Save Settings button. This updates the database and ensures that your shortcodes reflect the latest bot configurations.
Implementing Bots on Your Site
The dashboard acts as the "source of truth" for the shortcodes you use throughout your posts and pages.
Shortcode Usage
To display a specific bot configured in your dashboard, use the following shortcode structure:
[supervised_ai_bot id="1"]
| Attribute | Description | Example |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| id | The row number of the URL in your admin settings. | id="2" (loads the second URL in the list) |
Front-End Behavior
Configuring a bot in the dashboard and placing the shortcode on a page results in the following interface elements for your visitors:
- Trigger Button: A floating blue circular button appears at the bottom-right corner of the screen.
- Chat Popup: When clicked, the button toggles a 400px wide (max 800px) chat window containing an iframe of your Supervised AI interface.
- Responsive Height: The chat container is fixed at a height of 670px to ensure a consistent user experience across different themes.
Troubleshooting Tips
- Blank Popup: Ensure the URL entered in the dashboard starts with
https://and that the Supervised AI platform allows its interface to be embedded in an iframe. - Wrong Bot Displaying: Verify the line number in the dashboard settings. If you delete a line, the IDs of the bots below it will shift up.
