Andrew Hoyer

This plugin is for WordPress users who want a clutter-free interface, without AI buttons and options taking up space.
The point is not to discourage the use of AI in general. In fact, AI was used in research and development, and creation of assets for this plugin. However, theme and plugin developers are injecting buttons and links into core interfaces of the WordPress admin area, the Gutenburg editor, and even their own workflows.
<h3>Details</h3>
AI options are hidden anywhere in the WordPress admin area including the dashboard, admin toolbar, sidebar, and any other workflow that exists in the admin area.
Hide AI does not concern itself with plugins that are specifically and exclusively about AI, but rather with ones that are layering AI on top of their core service.
<h3>How to use</h3>
Simply install and activate the plugin. That’s it! There are no settings or options. The plugin takes action only in the admin area, and will automatically hide content from known sources.
<h3>Plugins and Themes</h3>
The plugin hides AI options generated by the following:
<ul>
<li>All in One SEO</li>
<li>Elementor</li>
<li>Otter Blocks</li>
<li>PostX</li>
<li>Rank Math SEO</li>
<li>SeedProd</li>
<li>Spectra</li>
<li>WPCode</li>
<li>Yoast</li>
</ul>
If you use a plugin or theme that is adding AI buttons to the interface, please submit a <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/hide-ai/" rel="ugc">Support request</a> to have it included in a later version:
<h3>Developers</h3>

Hide AI


Andrew Hoyer gets it. If there's a problem, create a solution. AI being "all the rage" has made the WordPress UI ugly, confusing, and generally a bad experience.



But you don't have to sit in silence.



Your clients don't have to be confused by shiny new buttons.



You won't have to worry about people breaking their sites by trying to help with AI.



Andrew fixed the problem.



Hide the AI buttons.



Thank you.


This is why I love the Plugin Repo!


I prefer using AI tools outside of the WP dashboard. This plugin hides the pesky AI buttons added by WordPress core and popular plugins.


Great

A WordPress plugin that hides AI buttons and links in the admin area.

The easiest, and highest rated way to Add Widgets to Posts and/or Pages. Create unlimited dynamic sidebars (widget areas) and insert these into a WordPress post or page.
Create as many widget areas (Turbo Sidebars) from the settings menu, and these can be used multiple times.
Each sidebar can be called independently by a shortcode, and you can call more than one per post/page.
Sidebars can be included in the post/page by using a shortcode like the following, where <code>x</code> is the name of the sidebar.
<pre><code>[widgets_on_pages id=x]
</code></pre>
<blockquote>
With the <a href="https://datamad.co.uk/wordpress-plugins/widgets-on-pages/" rel="nofollow ugc">PRO</a> version the widgets can be inserted simply with clicks-not-code using a wizard in the visual editor. This version also includes layout options to easily set the widgets in columns/grid presentation.
Pro version also supports the configurable option to automatically add widgets to all your posts and/or pages. Choose the layout options and whether to add the sidebar and widgets before or after the content. Ideal for adding lists of related posts to the end of every post. Each post and page can also be individually excluded from the auto-inclsion of the widgets.
<a href="https://datamad.co.uk/wordpress-plugins/widgets-on-pages/" rel="nofollow ugc">Pro version</a> key features 
 * Responsive Horizontal/Column/Grid layout 
 * Auto insert in Header, Content, or Footer 
 * Priority Support
</blockquote>
Basic In-Content Instructions
<ul>
<li>Create a Turbo Sidebar, these are your special widget containers</li>
<li>Add widgets to the Turbo Sidebar in the same way as you do for normal sidebars</li>
<li>If using the visual editor use the Add Turbo Sidebar button to add the Shortcode into your post or page where you’d like it to appear.</li>
</ul>
The sidebars can also be added to any theme, using template tags. This is an ace way to add widgets/sidebars to a theme’s header and footer (or any other part of a theme).
