5Names LLMs.txt Manager

Description

5Names LLMs.txt Manager lets you manage the llms.txt file for your WordPress site directly from the dashboard. A product by 5Names.

llms.txt is a proposed standard (see [llmstxt.org](https://llmstxt.org)) for a Markdown file in your site's root that gives AI language models (like ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity) a concise, structured overview of your site: who you are, which pages matter, and where to find more information — similar to what `robots.txt` does for search engine crawlers, but written for and readable by an LLM.

How does it work?

The plugin generates /llms.txt from two sources, each of which you can toggle independently:

1. Automatically from your WordPress content — choose which parts are included automatically: your site tagline as an intro quote, published pages, categories with their recent posts, and any custom post type your site uses.
2. Manual sections — your own ## Section blocks with links and short descriptions, for anything that can’t be generated automatically.

On save, the plugin combines both sources into a single Markdown file and writes it via WP_Filesystem (with a file_put_contents fallback) to llms.txt in your site’s root. A live preview always shows you the result before you save.

Importing an existing llms.txt

Already have an llms.txt file (e.g. created by hand)? On activation you’ll get a notice, and Import existing file reads the file and automatically converts it into sections, links, and a description (including multi-line blockquotes) — so nothing gets lost and you can carry on with the visual editor right away.

Source editor

Prefer to edit the Markdown directly? The Source tab lets you edit the text directly and save it without touching the visual settings. Note: saving from visual mode overwrites manual source edits with the generated content again.

Automatic backups

Every save writes the previous version of llms.txt to a protected folder (wp-content/llms-backups/, with an .htaccess file that blocks direct access). The last 10 versions are kept; older ones are removed automatically. Version history lets you restore an earlier version with one click.

Sitemap detection

Enable the „Sitemap“ option and the plugin adds an ## Optional section with a link to your sitemap. It automatically detects whether Yoast SEO or RankMath is active (and uses /sitemap_index.xml in that case), otherwise it falls back to the built-in WordPress sitemap (/wp-sitemap.xml).

Webhook after saving

Optional: provide a URL that receives a GET request after every successful save. Handy for clearing a CDN cache (like a Cloudflare Purge URL) whenever llms.txt changes.
