PasteTheme

No. Describe what you want to ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini, copy what it gives you, and paste. You never edit the code, and there is no page builder: WordPress itself locks the section's layout and leaves your words and pictures clickable.

Yes: any AI that writes HTML. Give it the section prompt from PasteTheme → AI and ask for one section at a time: it writes the words in the HTML and uses PasteTheme's class names for the look.

The section mechanic is built on the way 7.1's Custom HTML block holds editable blocks inside it.

Nothing is hidden from visitors: a new site starts live, and Coming soon is a choice at the top of Setup. What does change: on a brand-new site comments are switched off, the way a business site has them, while a site that already has content of its own keeps them as they were (Settings → Comments switches either way); the private visit counter starts counting (Search & visits → Visits; it stores the page's address and the referring site's name, never who visited, sets no cookie and skips browsers that ask not to be tracked); a back-to-top button, a floating header, dark mode that follows the visitor's device and your logo on the login page are on (Settings → Site features); XML-RPC is off and login lockouts are on (Settings → Advanced, Security & people). On a brand-new site "Let an AI connect" starts off, and while it is off no application password logs in, for any app (PasteTheme → AI switches it on). With the PasteTheme theme active, a starter Home page is made and set as the front page, unless the site already has one. On a brand-new install the section edges start on the slight curve with every other section shaded; a site that was here before stays straight (Design → Section edges). In the admin, for administrators: a Setup link on the plugin's row on the Plugins screen and, once, a notice there pointing to Setup that goes away by itself, a small PasteTheme Setup box on the Dashboard while Setup has steps left (Hide this hides it for good), a Site owner role in the role list (a login that can change words and pictures only), and Clear caches in the admin bar. While Setup has steps left, an administrator who logs in lands on Setup instead of the Dashboard. WordPress's Dashboard leaves out its Events and News, Quick Draft and Welcome boxes for every login, and while comments are off the Comments menu, its screen and the Dashboard's comments box are hidden. After a plugin, theme or WordPress update, or a theme switch, caches are cleared the way Clear caches does it. The plugin checks nothing against WordPress.org until an administrator switches on the daily file check (Security & people → Files that do not belong). Once it is on, the site checks its own files against WordPress.org's published lists once a day, with a count on the PasteTheme menu while anything needs a look and an email to the site's address the same day something new appears; switching it off stops it, and deactivating the plugin stops it and switches it off. From the start, the site's address gets an email when a login is given the Administrator role or an application password is added for someone who can edit the site; these two alerts go to the site's own address, contact no other server, and one switch on the same card turns them off. Developers: the new-site defaults are the PASTETHEME_NEW_SITE_COMING_SOON and PASTETHEME_NEW_SITE_EDGE constants, each behind a filter (pastetheme_new_site_coming_soon, pastetheme_section_edge_default).

Open PasteTheme → AI and switch on "Let an AI connect". Copy the site's address, press "Make a key for my AI" and approve on the WordPress screen it opens, then give your assistant the two. WordPress makes the key and, with JavaScript on, sends you back to the AI screen with it after the # in the address, where it is shown once (without JavaScript the AI screen cannot show it and says so); the plugin never makes, stores or sends it. Claude Code works with any site, even one on your own computer, in one line the AI screen writes for you. Claude, ChatGPT and other apps that run in the cloud need the site on the public internet, and ChatGPT makes changes only from a Business, Enterprise or Edu workspace. The key logs in as you and changes the site's content through PasteTheme's own tools: words, pictures, sections, new pages, page search settings, forms and putting pages live. Site-wide looks, templates, menus (beyond the links its own website and ready-made-site tools add), posts, comments, deleting, users, plugins and themes answer 403 to it, and with Safe mode on it changes words and pictures only. Revoke it whenever you like: the key list on the same screen opens WordPress's own list of keys on that login's profile.

For a business site's contact form, yes: paste any form your AI writes and it sends, with a hidden trap field, a fill-time check and a flood guard always on, and the Forms screen puts a ready-made contact form on any page in one click. To change the fields, ask your AI (it edits the form in place over MCP) or paste the form again. Whether an email arrives is your host's job; the Email card shows whether each one left.

The usual weak spots start closed: security headers, generic login errors, no user listing, no file editor, no pingback or version headers, XML-RPC off, and password guessers locked out after five failed attempts. It is not a firewall or a malware scanner, and backups stay with your host.

To the address on PasteTheme → Forms ("Messages go to"); left empty, to the site's own admin address. The Email card on the same Forms screen shows whether each email left.

Its heading, sentences and Send button change with a click, like the rest of the page. For the fields, ask your AI (it changes them in place) or paste the section again. A label wrapped around its box, the way many AI-written forms are built, is part of the form itself, so it changes the same way as a field.

Not in this version. On a sub-site WordPress filters pasted markup and quietly damages it; the plugin refuses with a clear message instead. One more limit on any site: an account without the unfiltered_html capability (an Editor on a multisite network) cannot paste or replace a section, and WordPress filters the page's markup when such an account saves it, exactly as it does for a Custom HTML block. Give that person an administrator account to paste sections, or a Site owner login (Users → Add User) if they only change words and pictures.
