Images

AIP can automatically find or generate relevant images and insert them into your articles, including a featured image. This saves time and makes your content more visually appealing.

Enabling Image Generation

You can enable image generation for two separate areas:

  • In-Content Images: Adds one or more images directly within the body of the article.
  • Featured Image: Creates and sets the post's featured image.

Image Providers

You can choose between generating new, unique images with an AI or searching for free stock photos.

OpenAI

OpenAI offers high-quality image generation with models like DALL-E 3 and GPT-4o.

  • Setup: To use OpenAI, simply enter your API key in the main dashboard under AIP > Dashboard > Providers > OpenAI. The Content Writer will automatically use this key.
  • Usage: In the Images accordion, select OpenAI as the provider and choose your desired model (e.g., dall-e-3).

Google

Google's models, like Imagen, offer another option for AI image generation.

  • Setup: To use Google, enter your API key in the main dashboard under AIP > Dashboard > Providers > Google.
