Compatibility Works with: WordPress 5.0+ (including WordPress 6.x) n8n 1.0+ (Cloud or self-hosted) OpenAI API (all embedding models) Qdrant Cloud (free and paid tiers) MongoDB Atlas (alternative vector database path) Tested on: WordPress 6.4+ n8n 1.65+ OpenAI text-embedding-ada-002 Qdrant Cloud free tier Common questions Q: What exactly is included when I purchase? A: You get the complete package: both the indexing workflow (shown here) AND the chatbot workflow, the WordPress plugin with chat interface, comprehensive step-by-step setup guides with screenshots, configuration templates, email support, and 12 months of free updates. Everything you need to deploy a fully functional AI chatbot. Q: Are the setup guides really clear and complete? A: Yes! Clear, detailed step-by-step guides are included with screenshots for every step. We provide both quick setup (15-25 min) and advanced setup paths, troubleshooting guides, customization instructions, and security best practices. Even beginners can follow along. Q: Do I need to buy the chatbot workflow separately? A: No! Both workflows come together as a complete package. You get everything needed for a fully functional AI chatbot solution. Q: How often should I run this workflow? A: Run it whenever you publish new content or want to update the index. For active blogs, weekly or after each batch of posts. Q: Can I index custom post types? A: Yes. Modify the WordPress node to include custom post types in the query parameters. Q: What if I have more than 1000 posts? A: The workflow handles pagination automatically. Larger sites may take longer to index and may exceed free tier limits. Q: Is my content secure? A: Your content is sent to OpenAI for embedding generation and stored in Qdrant. Review privacy policies of both services. Q: Can I use a different embedding model? A: Yes. Update the OpenAI node to use text-embedding-3-small or text-embedding-3-large (adjust vector dimensions accordingly). Q: What's the difference between Qdrant and MongoDB? A: Qdrant is easier to set up (15 min) and purpose-built for vectors. MongoDB Atlas is more flexible for complex data but takes longer to configure (1-2 hours). Q: Do I need coding skills? A: No. If you can follow instructions, create API keys, and import workflows, you can set this up. Q: Can I use this for multiple WordPress sites? A: Yes. Create separate collections in Qdrant for each site, or purchase additional licenses for commercial use.
