Give your users control over their AI slop intake. SlopStopper lets website owners identify AI-generated content and provides visitors with a simple toggle to show or hide it.
Some website owners find that a bit of AI assistance can be a helpful time-saver. Others use it to extend their verbal or artistic skills. However, many users are turned off by AI content on aesthetic or moral grounds.
SlopStopper provides websites with an on-off toggle for AI content, allowing site owners to employ AI as needed, better disclose its non-human provenance, and grant users the ability to scrub AI content from their user experience if they prefer.

<h3>Visual Toggle</h3>
SlopStopper adds a floating toggle switch on front end of your site. When clicked by a user, their localized display of the site will toggle between modes of showing or hiding your AI-generated content.
The switch is unobtrusive by default, becoming prominent when hovered over. The labels and position of the switch can be configured from the admin control panel in the settings section of your site’s backend.
<h3>Multiple Content Types</h3>
AI-generated content can be identified by image, post, page, or by a custom Gutenberg block type for sections of AI content within any post, page, or template.
AI Images
Compatible with all image formats!
SlopStopper adds an “AI generated” checkbox to the Details modal of every image in your Media Library. Checking the box will identify that image as being AI-generated.
When the user elects to hide AI-generated content, these images will be hidden behind a black overlay. Clicking the toggle to show AI content will remove the overlay, allowing the image to display.
Posts and Pages
SlopStopper adds a checkbox to the edit screen of every post and page. Checking the box will identify that post or page as being entirely AI-generated.
When the user elects to hide AI-generated content, the content of the page will be replaced by a notice that the content is AI generated. Clicking the toggle to show AI content will reveal the content of the post or page.
Other Content
SlopStopper adds a custom “AI Generated Content” block type that serves as a container for blocks containing any AI-generated sections within a post, page, or template. Any number of blocks can be placed within the “AI Generated Content” container.
When the user elects to hide AI-generated content, contained content will be hidden or replaced. Clicking the toggle will reveal the hidden content.
<h3>Admin Control Panel</h3>
SlopStopper adds an SlopStopper settings page under the Settings section of your WordPress backend. From here, you can set the position and labels of the toggle switch and an optional message to show when AI content has been hidden.
<h3>Responsive Design</h3>
SlopStopper uses responsive design techniques to adjust to displays on desktop and mobile devices.
<h3>User Preference Memory</h3>
SlopStopper remembers a user’s preference for showing or hiding the AI-generated content on your site, providing a consistent experience as the user navigates from page to page. The preference is saved to the user’s browser and is not accessible to the website owner or plugin developer.
<h3>Background Image Support</h3>
When an image is identified as AI-generated and used as a background image, the AI-generated image will be overlaid in black while the foregrounded content will not be affected unless also identified as AI-generated.
<h3>Custom Gutenberg Block</h3>
SlopStopper adds an “AI Generated Content” block to the Gutenberg editor. This block acts as a container for content in any blocks of AI content placed within it.
<h3>Customize Obscuration Filter</h3>
From the admin settings, slop images can be obscured with four basic filters: light and dark patterns, solid color, and a circuitry pattern. These can be customized with hue, saturation, and brightness to match the look of any website. The appearance can also be randomized and set to change daily.
<h3>Cache Plugin Compatibility</h3>
SlopStopper integrates with 15+ popular caching plugins including: 
* WP-Optimize 
* WP Rocket 
* W3 Total Cache 
* LiteSpeed Cache 
* WP Super Cache 
* And many more…
This ensures AI content changes are immediately reflected without manual cache clearing.

Pro Tip for Site Owners Using Caching
If you use a caching plugin, SlopStopper automatically clears relevant caches when you mark content as AI-generated. However, you may need to view the page while logged in to see changes immediately. Regular visitors will see the updates after the cache naturally expires or on their next visit.

<h3>External Services</h3>
This plugin utilizes the vpnapi.io service to perform real-time IP address analysis. This is essential for the plugin’s core functionality of detecting and blocking traffic from VPNs, proxies, Tor networks, and relays.
<ul>
<li>Service Provider: vpnapi.io</li>
<li>Purpose: To identify the nature of a visitor’s IP address (VPN, proxy, Tor, relay) to enable blocking or restriction based on your plugin settings, thereby enhancing website security and integrity.</li>
<li>Data Sent: When a visitor accesses a page or area of your site that is actively protected by VPN Guard (and the result for their IP is not already cached locally or if the IP is not whitelisted), the visitor’s IP address is sent to the vpnapi.io service for analysis.</li>
<li>Service Terms of Use: <a href="https://vpnapi.io/terms" rel="nofollow ugc">https://vpnapi.io/terms</a></li>

<h3>Privacy Considerations</h3>
VPN Guard is designed with user and site visitor privacy in mind. Here’s how we handle data:
<ul>
<li>Visitor IP Addresses: To protect your site, VPN Guard processes the IP addresses of your site visitors. As detailed in the “External Services” section, visitor IP addresses may be sent to the <code>vpnapi.io</code> service for analysis.</li>
<li>Data Logging: If a visitor’s IP address is blocked, VPN Guard will store the following information in your local WordPress database: the visitor’s IP address, the date and time of the block, the detection reason (e.g., “VPN”), the URL the visitor attempted to access, their browser user agent, and the HTTP referer. This data is for your security logging and review purposes. You have an option in the plugin settings to delete all plugin data, including these logs, upon uninstallation.</li>
<li>Cookies: VPN Guard’s core IP blocking functionality does not set any cookies on your website visitors’ browsers.</li>
<li>Site Administrator Data (Feedback Form): If you choose to send feedback to us via the plugin’s built-in feedback form, it will include your WordPress admin email, site URL, and technical details (plugin version, WP version, PHP version) to help us provide support. This is explicitly stated on the feedback form itself.</li>
</ul>
* Your Website’s Privacy Policy: We recommend that you update your website’s privacy policy to inform your users about the data processing activities performed by VPN Guard, including the use of the <code>vpnapi.io</code> service and the local logging of blocked IP addresses.

VPN Guard – Block VPN, Proxy, Bots & Anonymous Visitors


I have been using VPN Guard on my WooCommerce site for a few weeks, and it’s been really helpful. We were getting a lot of fake registrations and suspicious logins from VPN users, and this plugin reduced that significantly. I like that it doesn’t block all visitors, only protects important areas like login and checkout, so normal users are not affected. Setup was simple, and it works well with other security plugins.
