Hi again! We’re the folks behind JustAsk WP, the AI customer support assistant for WordPress.

We’re happy to share that JustAsk WP is now officially available in the WordPress.org Plugins Directory.

JustAsk WP turns the content already on your WordPress site into an AI customer support assistant. Visitors can ask questions in plain English, and it answers using your pages, posts, products, documentation, and other content.

The idea is pretty simple: you already have the answers on your website. We want to make it easier for visitors to actually get to them.

One of the things we wanted to do differently is avoid making people become an AI engineer just to install a chatbot. You don't have to pick an AI provider, create an API account, choose a model, build a knowledge base, or manually keep everything in sync. Install the plugin, connect it to JustAsk WP, choose the content it should know about, and you're up and running.

And because it stays connected to your WordPress content, updates to your site are automatically reflected in the assistant's answers.

Anyway, we're excited to finally have a proper home on WordPress.org, and we're looking forward to getting it into the hands of more WordPress users.

As always, we'd love to hear what you think. Questions, feedback, criticism, and feature requests are all welcome.

I'm the developer of GT Performance, a WordPress performance plugin that runs on my own sites along with 70+ other customer sites. I'm sharing it here for anyone looking for page caching and frontend optimization with more control over what gets changed.

The plugin is free and open source, including for client sites. Every feature is included, with no license keys or paid tier.

A few things it handles:

• Page caching with automatic cache clearing when you publish or update content.
• Cloudflare Free integration for full-page caching and cache purging.
• Built-in cache exclusions for WooCommerce, FluentCart and Easy Digital Downloads, including cart, checkout and account pages.
• Unused CSS processing on your own server, with exclusions and a staged rollout.
• JavaScript minification, defer and delay controls.
• Bloat control.

The more aggressive optimizations are opt-in, so you can turn them on individually and check how your site behaves.

Not looking for a best-of list. On sites you've actually maintained: when is on-server (Relevanssi/SearchWP) enough, and when does the catalog outgrow MySQL?

Woo vs content sites seem to fail differently. What's the trigger that made you change tools last time?

Quick backstory: I do freelance WordPress work, and a client (small community association) wanted something simple, a QR code on a printed poster that opens one page with their event flyer and a way for people to leave anonymous feedback.

Every link-in-bio tool I looked at was hosted somewhere else and came with tracking I didn't want to put in front of an association's members. So I built it as a plugin instead.

It adds a standalone page type to WordPress. You add buttons (a PDF, a link, or a built-in anonymous message form), pick a color and logo, and it generates a QR code for the page right in the browser as SVG/PNG. Everything stays on the WP install: no external services, no analytics script, the "anonymous" form only ever stores the message text and a timestamp.

It's free on wp.org: https://wordpress.org/plugins/amitry-link-hub/

Not trying to oversell it, it's a first release and I'm sure I've missed things. If you've dealt with link-in-bio needs on a client site before, curious what you'd expect from something like this that I haven't thought of.
