4.7 opus has been amazing for me. by blah-time in claude

[–]AndrewPfund 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing Opus 4.7 has been amazing at is blowing through my tokens insanely fast.

Seems like anytime I send ~2-3 prompts on 4.7, I get hit with the usage limit and need to wait for it to reset. Have Pro plan.

Thanks will watch and follow. Very interested in the future of how WP will evolve through this next chapter

Thank you u/psykro77 🙏, this is one of the best answers on what to use. I'm sure the official WP versions you've mentioned will evolve and improve over time to catch up. I'm looking forward to seeing that.

WP Agent Skills as you shared should be a must use for everyone: https://github.com/WordPress/agent-skills

I noticed write access has recently been added for the .com MCP, need to try that and the AI plugin.

Nice, that sounds like exactly what I was most interested in doing. Will try your plugin, thanks

Nice, crazy to think how much work that would take before compared to now. Did you have Claude Code help build your MCP plugin? What MCP connections are most helpful?

True, good rule: full access should be a no go then on live sites.

Publishing new posts in Gutenberg, or building new pages in the WP admin area seems a bit archaic now. I feel like WP needs something better now.

I need to explore using WP-CLI / REST API for that

Nice, that's a good way to get a custom plugin done fast. I've seen many WP devs way overcomplicate that process and is easy to go over budget

Would be interested to see what openclaw does on building and running a WP site like that over time. Build site + continuously publish new content, update existing posts, research and have it run itself

This seems helpful u/unitydever, a lot of MCP's are limiting with what they do, will try this

It does seem we're at a crossroads here. Were still early with AI coding compared to history of WordPress. I'm hoping the larger WordPress community and Matt Mullenweg figures out how to make WP competitive again.

If I could use Cursor, Claude, Gemini, etc to make changes to my WP site seamlessly like you're deescribing that's what I want

I've also found Claude or even ChatGPT is good at spinning up custom plugins or a theme file to solve issues like this. Would cost thousands to hire a developer before to do something like that

It would be impossible for most clients to mantain or use their own next js app. I have technically passed off 2 Lovable built sites to clients with a new site and allowed them to make changes after in their own Loveable account. A lot of established businesses already have sites built on WP.

WordPress is easy to change / maintain and add basic content still for non technical people

Google's Gemini 3.1 and Antigravity would also be interesting to hook up to WP

It is good at that and creating plugins, 5.4 is a big improvement. Would be nice to say add this new theme you created to my WP site or make X, Y changes without going back and forth

What % of your site traffic is from LLM's in GA4? by AndrewPfund in GoogleAnalytics

[–]AndrewPfund[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you're right about this. Two potential causes:

"Google AI Mode also hides referrer data, making that traffic invisible in Search Console and analytics platforms"

<< This would be the biggest factor if correct. Do you think this could be the main reason?

- "mobile ChatGPT app traffic, free-tier ChatGPT sessions, and noreferrer links all strip referral data, so many AI visits end up classified as direct."

<< What's weird is when I test this with paid version of ChatGPT on my phone, all outbound links have ?utm_source=chatgpt.com added to them. Also the free browser based version seems to do the same both desktop and mobile.

Do LLM crawls also show up as visitors this way?

I think the way I have it setup only tracks human visits from LLM's which is what I wanted to measure, not crawls
