Frontman can inspect supported WordPress structures, make the change, and refresh the preview for your review. Use Frontman for focused site updates without hunting through page builders, theme screens, menus, widgets, and settings. ### One Task, From Request to Review The screenshots show one complete task: 1. Open the page beside Frontman. 2. Select the FAQ title that needs an update. 3. Describe the new title in plain language. 4. Frontman inspects the WordPress content and applies the supported change. 5. Review the refreshed page before you continue. For headers and footers, Frontman can inspect candidate templates, template parts, menus, widgets, and Elementor content. The structure that controls the rendered page depends on the site. [Learn how to identify and edit a WordPress header or footer](https://frontman.sh/blog/how-to-edit-wordpress-header-footer/?utm_source=wordpress.org&utm_medium=plugin-readme&utm_campaign=frontman-wordpress&utm_content=task-proof). ### Before You Install Frontman requires: * WordPress administrator access * A Frontman account with GitHub or Google sign-in * A supported AI provider connected with OAuth or an API key * A staging site and a current backup for initial use Frontman does not include a model credential. Your provider can apply its own usage limits and charges. ### Common Tasks Use Frontman to: * Update page copy, headlines, buttons, and calls to action * Edit posts, pages, and Gutenberg blocks * Adjust supported Elementor content with Elementor-aware tools * Update WooCommerce products and other supported store data * Change navigation menus, templates, template parts, and supported widgets * Update Additional CSS and allowlisted site settings * Inspect a page and explain which supported WordPress structure can control it ### How Frontman Works Frontman puts an AI editor beside a live view of your site. Select mode adds context from the visible element to your request. Frontman then uses WordPress, Elementor, or WooCommerce tools that match the request. The preview refreshes after a supported change, so you can review the page in the same workspace. Frontman works with WordPress content and structures that its current tools support. Custom themes, custom plugins, hosting controls, and unsupported page builders can require a different workflow. ### Safety, Limits, and Data Only WordPress administrators with the `manage_options` capability can access Frontman. The plugin uses WordPress nonces, sanitizes inputs, and restricts option changes to an allowlist. Frontman is early-access software. It has not been tested across every theme, page builder, plugin stack, and hosting setup. Start on a staging site. Keep a current backup. Review each change before you use it on a production site. When you submit a request, relevant site content can pass through Frontman AI to your configured model provider. The Third-Party Services section summarizes this data flow. ### Open Source and Support The Frontman plugin is open source under GPLv2 or later. [Browse the code on GitHub](https://github.com/frontman-ai/frontman?utm_source=wordpress.org&utm_medium=plugin-readme&utm_campaign=frontman-wordpress&utm_content=open-source-section).

Frontman processes prompts, relevant site or store content, tool results, and stored task history to run the agent. Stored provider credentials use server-side encryption. * Services: [Client](https://app.frontman.sh), [API](https://api.frontman.sh) * Provider: Frontman AI * Policies: [Terms](https://frontman.sh/terms/), [Privacy](https://frontman.sh/privacy/) **AI Model Providers** Frontman sends the context needed for your request to your selected AI provider. That provider processes data under its terms and privacy policy. **WorkOS, GitHub, and Google Sign-In** WorkOS AuthKit provides GitHub and Google sign-in. WorkOS and your selected provider process account and authentication data. * WorkOS: [Service](https://workos.com), [Terms](https://workos.com/terms), [Privacy](https://workos.com/privacy) * GitHub: [Service](https://github.com), [Terms](https://docs.github.com/en/site-policy/github-terms/github-terms-of-service), [Privacy](https://docs.github.com/en/site-policy/privacy-policies/github-general-privacy-statement) * Google: [Service](https://accounts.google.com), [Terms](https://policies.google.com/terms), [Privacy](https://policies.google.com/privacy) **Analytics and Diagnostics** Heap measures product use and onboarding. Sentry records errors and performance diagnostics. These services can process interaction, session, device, browser, identifier, and diagnostic data. Frontman uses Heap based on consent where required. * Heap: [Service](https://heap.io), [Privacy](https://www.heap.io/privacy) * Sentry: [Service](https://sentry.io), [Privacy](https://sentry.io/privacy/) Loading the Frontman UI requests hosted client assets.

Navigate to `/frontman` on your site (you must be logged in as an admin) 4. Sign in to Frontman at `api.frontman.sh` with GitHub or Google when prompted 5.

You need administrator access, a Frontman account, and a supported AI provider connected with OAuth or an API key. Frontman does not include model access. You do not need another server. ### What can Frontman change? Current tools support posts, pages, Gutenberg blocks, menus, templates, template parts, widgets, allowlisted settings, Additional CSS, Elementor content, and WooCommerce data. ### Does Frontman work with every theme? No. Support depends on the structure that controls the rendered page. Custom themes, plugins, hosting controls, and unsupported builders can require another workflow. ### Can I use Frontman in production? Frontman can run on production, but it is early-access software. Start on staging, keep a current backup, and review each change. ### What data is sent to Frontman AI? The hosted service processes your prompts, relevant site or store content, tool results, and task history. It sends request context to your selected AI provider. See Third-Party Services and the Privacy Policy below. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/0d8162c4eba1f53de6eda199cec4af24b9089b7a682a87aa894724c860191a07? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Awesome](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/awesome-10669/)󠁿 [nooyen](https://profiles.wordpress.org/nooyen/) August 7, 2026 2 replies Great work, open source, for now the best wp ai editor out there, working with your regular chatgpt account! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/30544156663d143271f59b36adc087f1c371d5ef5f9351a2a40c4c090795e6cc? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[A massive timesaver](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-massive-timesaver-2/)󠁿 [sarahillel436](https://profiles.wordpress.org/sarahillel436/) July 1, 2026 1 reply I recently used Frontman to help me update a legacy Wordpress site, and it was a game changer. It made the whole process incredibly smooth.The visual preview editor is super intuitive, saved me hours of digging through old admin menus. Installation and integration were seamless. Thank you to the developer/s for creating such a massive timesaver 🙌 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/3a9819ad38cf9cbf14741854f5baa0f5fa6a0e0326f59cbd7cb66da90cc8113b? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[simple and seamless integrated](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-and-seamless-integrated/)󠁿 [diogomafra](https://profiles.wordpress.org/diogomafra/) June 24, 2026 Switched from ChatGPT to Claude the other day and this plugin just kept working perfectly no re-setup, it integrates smooth with both. Frontman is an absolute game changer, dude. You open /frontman, tell the AI what you wanna tweak on your live site, and it actually does the edits right there while you watch the preview. Saved me so much time messing with blocks, pages, and settings. If you’re tired of WordPress admin headaches, just try this and you’ll get hours back in your day. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/6ff505d3a39d5fae93fe91e2cb104927cf3f926ac4e7e61615d099671dbc97c9? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[An AI life save if there ever was one](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/an-ai-life-save-if-there-ever-was-one/)󠁿 [leshno](https://profiles.wordpress.org/leshno/) June 24, 2026 Hate Wordpress? You’ll love Frontman. Saves me literally hours of work, searching, wondering on WP, i tell Frontman what i need, maybe helping it a bit by selecting elements on the screen and ask for what i need. 90% of times it does it with no problem and in under 2 mins. If you’re working with wordpress you should try this, if you want some free time, that is. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/6aebab52533f23652ce449b483e29a6640b321b63adbf489df3a1bd8d2179129? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[great ai plugin!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-ai-plugin-4/)󠁿 [leostera](https://profiles.wordpress.org/leostera/) June 24, 2026 It was super easy to install and connect to my chatgpt account.
