Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Moderation API: Automated Content Moderation
Moderation API offers a free plan with 500 messages per month. Upgrade to a paid plan for higher volumes and more powerful features.
We recommend to use the review queue to see if Moderation API is working. You might want to update the queue settings to show all comments instead of just flagged ones. You can also see the API response in the WordPress admin under "Comments".
You need to connect your WordPress site to Moderation API to use the service. This is so we can moderate content for you.
You can select various types of content to flag such as bullying, discrimination, sentiment, NSFW, PII, and much more in the Moderation API dashboard. We have a comprehensive list of categories, attributes, and taxonomies you can select. You can also create your own custom rules and guidelines using AI agents.
The free plugin can only moderate comments. If you want to moderate other types of content such as posts, pages, or custom post types, please get in touch with us.
Moderation API supports 200+ languages. Some models work better for certain languages. See the language support when you add a model to your project.
You can choose what to do with your flagged content. You can automatically approve it, send it to the review queue, or delete it.
No. You can automatically approve or delete content that is flagged by the AI. This way the plugin is a set and forget solution, and you can get deeper insights into flagged content by using the review queue.
Yes, the plugin plays nicely with other plugins. If other plugins are also moderating comments, these will most likely run before Moderation API, and the value from the other plugins will be used if Moderation API does not flag the content.
Yes, this plugin fully supports WordPress multisite networks. Each site in your network can have its own Moderation API configuration and settings or use the global configuration - no need for multiple Moderation API accounts.
