<p>VecPost AI Search for Posts replaces WordPress’s default SQL LIKE search with vector-based semantic search. Instead of matching exact words, it understands the <em>meaning</em> of a search query.</p>
<p><strong>Example:</strong> A user searching “heart workouts” will find your post titled “Best cardiovascular exercises” – even though no words overlap – because the meanings are similar.</p>
<h4>How It Works</h4>
<ol>
<li>When you publish a post, the plugin sends its content to your chosen AI provider (OpenAI or Google Gemini) to generate a vector embedding – a list of numbers that represents the meaning of the text.</li>
<li>These numbers are stored in your database.</li>
<li>When a user searches, their query is also converted to numbers, and the plugin finds posts whose numbers are closest – meaning most semantically similar.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Semantic search powered by OpenAI (<code>text-embedding-3-small</code> or <code>text-embedding-3-large</code>) or Google Gemini (<code>gemini-embedding-001</code>)</li>
<li>Hybrid re-ranking: combines semantic similarity with keyword matching for best results</li>
<li>Gutenberg block and shortcode <code>[vecpost_semantic_search]</code> for easy placement</li>
<li>Bulk indexer with progress bar for existing posts</li>
<li>WP-CLI support: <code>wp vecpost-semantic-search index</code>, <code>wp vecpost-semantic-search status</code>, <code>wp vecpost-semantic-search search "query"</code></li>
<li>Configurable scoring thresholds via Settings -> VecPost – AI Semantic Search for Posts</li>
<li>Automatic re-indexing when you switch embedding models</li>
<li>Results cached via WordPress object cache (Redis/Memcached compatible)</li>
</ul>
<h4>Third-Party Services</h4>
<p>This plugin sends post content to external AI APIs to generate embeddings. By using this plugin, you agree to the terms of service and privacy policies of your chosen provider:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>OpenAI:</strong> https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy | https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use</li>
<li><strong>Google Gemini:</strong> https://policies.google.com/privacy | https://ai.google.dev/terms</li>
</ul>
<p>No data is sent without your API key being configured. Data is only transmitted when posts are published or during bulk indexing.</p>
<h4>Performance Note</h4>
<p>Semantic search requires loading all embeddings into PHP memory for comparison. This works well for sites with up to approximately 1,500 posts. For larger sites, a dedicated vector database (pgvector, Qdrant, or Pinecone) is recommended.</p>
