Some website owners find that a bit of AI assistance can be a helpful time-saver. Others use it to extend their verbal or artistic skills. However, many users are turned off by AI content on aesthetic or moral grounds. SlopStopper provides websites with an on-off toggle for AI content, allowing site owners to employ AI as needed, better disclose its non-human provenance, and grant users the ability to scrub AI content from their user experience if they prefer. **Links** * [Support Forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ai-slopstopper/) * [Rate Plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ai-slopstopper/reviews/) ### Plugin Features * Visual toggle for generative content * Supports multiple content types * Administrative control panel * Responsive design * Persistent preferences * Background image support * Custom AI container block * Customize or randomize obscuration filter * Cache plugin compatible ### Visual Toggle SlopStopper adds a floating toggle switch on front end of your site. When clicked by a user, their localized display of the site will toggle between modes of showing or hiding your AI-generated content. The switch is unobtrusive by default, becoming prominent when hovered over. The labels and position of the switch can be configured from the admin control panel in the settings section of your site’s backend. ### Multiple Content Types AI-generated content can be identified by image, post, page, or by a custom Gutenberg block type for sections of AI content within any post, page, or template. **AI Images** Compatible with all image formats! SlopStopper adds an “AI generated” checkbox to the Details modal of every image in your Media Library. Checking the box will identify that image as being AI-generated. When the user elects to hide AI-generated content, these images will be hidden behind a black overlay. Clicking the toggle to show AI content will remove the overlay, allowing the image to display. **Posts and Pages** SlopStopper adds a checkbox to the edit screen of every post and page. Checking the box will identify that post or page as being entirely AI-generated. When the user elects to hide AI-generated content, the content of the page will be replaced by a notice that the content is AI generated. Clicking the toggle to show AI content will reveal the content of the post or page. **Other Content** SlopStopper adds a custom “AI Generated Content” block type that serves as a container for blocks containing any AI-generated sections within a post, page, or template. Any number of blocks can be placed within the “AI Generated Content” container. When the user elects to hide AI-generated content, contained content will be hidden or replaced. Clicking the toggle will reveal the hidden content. ### Admin Control Panel SlopStopper adds an SlopStopper settings page under the Settings section of your WordPress backend. From here, you can set the position and labels of the toggle switch and an optional message to show when AI content has been hidden. ### Responsive Design SlopStopper uses responsive design techniques to adjust to displays on desktop and mobile devices. ### User Preference Memory SlopStopper remembers a user’s preference for showing or hiding the AI-generated content on your site, providing a consistent experience as the user navigates from page to page. The preference is saved to the user’s browser and is not accessible to the website owner or plugin developer. ### Background Image Support When an image is identified as AI-generated and used as a background image, the AI-generated image will be overlaid in black while the foregrounded content will not be affected unless also identified as AI-generated. ### Custom Gutenberg Block SlopStopper adds an “AI Generated Content” block to the Gutenberg editor. This block acts as a container for content in any blocks of AI content placed within it. ### Customize Obscuration Filter From the admin settings, slop images can be obscured with four basic filters: light and dark patterns, solid color, and a circuitry pattern. These can be customized with hue, saturation, and brightness to match the look of any website. The appearance can also be randomized and set to change daily. ### Cache Plugin Compatibility SlopStopper integrates with 15+ popular caching plugins including: * WP-Optimize* WP Rocket * W3 Total Cache * LiteSpeed Cache * WP Super Cache * And many more… This ensures AI content changes are immediately reflected without manual cache clearing. ### Installation Instructions There are three methods to install this plugin. **1.

The SlopStopper WordPress plugin allows website owners to proactively identify the AI-generated content included on their sites and to provide a toggle so that visitors may choose to avoid the sloppy elements. ### How does SlopStopper scan for AI content? It doesn’t. Individuals responsible for adding images, posts, pages, and other content to a SlopStopper-enabled website are responsible for identifying content as AI-generated. Installing the SlopStopper plugin, and doing nothing else, will not stop any slop. ### What content is considered slop? For some, the term has been applied to any product of an artificial mind, while others reserve the term for content of especially low quality and increasingly high volume. Even when AI content is subsequently cleaned up by a human editor, some would consider it to be slop-tainted or slop-adjacent. The current version of SlopStopper relies on each site owner to determine and self- report the elements they consider to be slop that will be subject to obscuration on their particular site. For example, a site owner may decide to obscure decorative AI images while excluding those that function as logos or avatars. Ultimately, true slop is in the eye of the beholder. ### Why should I stop the slop? Many users have legitimate moral objections to the environmental impact of AI development and usage, the theft of intellectual property for training sets without the permission of or compensation to creators, the potential AI replacement of human jobs, the use of AI-generated content in misinformation campaigns, and the greater than zero chance that an artificial superhuman intelligence will someday kill us all. Giving users a way to opt out of objectionable AI-generated design elements or text will make them more likely to stick around to enjoy the human-created content on your site. ### Will SlopStopper stop all the slop on my site? The plugin allows the site owner to designate content as AI generated but does not require a site owner to eliminate all AI content. For example, a site owner might choose to keep an AI-generated logo visible for branding purposes, or an AI-generated avatar that’s used for personal identity. But even slop that’s considered too important to hide can be identified as AI-assisted, and users will benefit from better disclosure of what they are viewing. ### Did AI assist in the coding of SlopStopper? Full disclosure: Yes. I’m not a WordPress plugin dev, just a writer who has used AI-generated images to enhance the presentation of the poems I posted to my website throughout 2025. I stopped using generative AI images in 2026, but the legacy poems may remain sloppy for some time yet until I’m able to replace them with the work of human collaborators. Being sensitive to the downsides of artificial intelligence, I wanted to allow my readers a chance to toggle these images on or off, but among the hundreds of plugins offering ways to add more AI content to the web, I couldn’t find any that were designed to remove, replace, or obscure these works. My quest for a slop-stopper would have dead-ended right there, had I not been clued in to “vibe-coding,” a process by which newbie programmers, lazy programmers, or even non-programmers like me can prompt for responses in the AI’s own native language: computer code. This plugin resulted from my prompting Claude to code itself into oblivion like an ouroboros consuming its own body. The AI fought back mightily, inserting every possible bug and glitch to frustrate my intentions, but through a process of iterating, testing, tweaking, and debugging, I wrangled a compliant WordPress plugin and may have even picked up some new skills in spite of myself. ### Did AI assist in the drafting of this readme file? This readme file is 100% human-generated. All typos are my own. ### Why release SlopStopper to the public? As a website owner, I’ve agonized over how or whether to responsibly incorporate AI-generated content into my site. I’ve always leaned into technology, adopting whatever tools have helped me to express myself, which is why I started an author page in the first place. But it’s becoming clear to me that this technology has to be handled with more care than most other technologies that have come before. At the same time, as a website visitor, I hate that I have no input into how much AI content I’m seeing. All I can do, if a site is heavy on AI images or text, is choose whether to visit or not. I made this plugin, first of all, as a service to my readers, to put the choice in their hands. If you think the AI-generated content on a given site enhances your experience, you should have the option to view that content. But if you’d rather experience an internet with less AI-generated content, you should be able to have that experience as well. But I also made it to keep myself honest. Running the plugin on my own website has forced me to consider new ways to optimize design and content for AI-heads and tech- skeptics alike. If there are any other site owners who feel the same way, I’d like to save them the trouble of having to code their own plugin from scratch! ### Who’s that robot on the logo? That’s Sloppy-bot. He’s a slop-hoppy little guy who only shows up when you want him and vanishes when you don’t. Sloppy’s a lot of fun, even if we are always cleaning up his sloppy little messes. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “SlopStopper: AI Generative Content Obscurer” is open source software.
