Slop Stopper

Overview

Slop Stopper is a WordPress® plugin that scans submitted content for AI-generated phrases and flags questionable posts for administrator review.

This makes sure that user-generated content meets quality standards and prevents generic or low-effort AI-generated text from being published without oversight.

Features

• Automatically scans post content for flagged AI-generated phrases.
• Prevents non-admin users from publishing flagged content.
• Adds flagged posts to an admin review queue.
• Provides an admin settings page to review flagged posts.
• Includes a manual flagging option via a post meta box.

Installation

Requirements

• WordPress® 5.8 or higher
• PHP 7.4 or higher

Install from GitHub

1. Download the Plugin:

   • Go to the Slop Stopper GitHub Repository (you are here)
   • Click on the Code button and download the ZIP file.

2. Upload to WordPress®:

   • Log in to your WordPress® admin panel.
   • Navigate to Plugins > Add New.
   • Click on Upload Plugin and select the ZIP file.
   • Click Install Now, then Activate the plugin.

Usage

How It Works

• When a non-admin user submits content, the plugin scans the post for flagged phrases.
• If a flagged phrase is detected, the post is saved as a draft and cannot be published until reviewed.
• An admin notice is displayed if a post contains flagged content.
• Admin users can review flagged posts in the Slop Stopper settings page.

Reviewing Flagged Content

1. Navigate to Slop Stopper > Flagged Posts in the WordPress® admin menu.
2. Review the list of flagged posts, including details such as:
   • Post Title
   • Author
   • Date
   • Flagged Phrase
3. Edit and approve or reject flagged posts as needed.

Manually Flagging Posts

• Editors and administrators can manually flag AI-generated content by checking the SLOP meta box when editing a post.
• This prevents the post from being published until further review.

Configuration

Customizing Flagged Phrases

To add or remove phrases from the flagged list, use the following filter in your theme's functions.php file or a custom plugin:

add_filter( 'slop_stopper_phrases', function( $phrases ) {
    $phrases[] = 'next-gen synergy'; // Add a custom phrase
    return $phrases;
} );

Updating the Plugin

Since this plugin is not in the WordPress® repository, it uses GitHub updates.

• The plugin will check for updates from GitHub.
• When an update is available, you will see a notification in Plugins > Installed Plugins.
• Click Update Now to install the latest version.
