What the author says it does

Website LLMs.txt generates and manages an llms.txt file, a structured, AI-ready index that helps large language models like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity understand your site’s most important content.

How llms.txt works

Traditional sitemaps and robots files guide search engines. But as AI-driven systems such as ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity increasingly ingest web content, they benefit from a clear, structured list of a site’s most important URLs.

llms.txt offers that: a plain-text or Markdown list of essential public URLs, optionally annotated with titles, descriptions, and grouping, designed for AI consumption rather than general web crawling.

Key benefits

✅ AI discovery readiness: future-proof your site for AI indexing and content retrieval.

✅ Fully automatic: the plugin builds and updates your llms.txt file on its own schedule.

✅ SEO plugin integration: works seamlessly with Yoast SEO, Rank Math, SEOPress, and AIOSEO, automatically excluding content marked as noindex or nofollow.

✅ Advanced controls: choose post types, customize file titles or descriptions, attach optional Markdown files, and trigger manual regeneration.

✅ Developer-friendly: includes filters such as llms_generator_get_post_meta_description for description logic, performance tuning, and custom indexing behavior.

The opening of the plugin's own description. The full text, installation notes and changelog are on its WordPress.org page.

Questions the author answers

Why is my llms.txt smaller after updating to 8.5.4?

The plugin now leaves out anything an anonymous visitor cannot read on your site. If you use a membership or access control plugin, your posts and pages are left out by default, because there is no reliable way to tell from the database which of them a visitor can read. The “Excluded content” summary on the settings screen shows what was left out, and you can include individual posts and pages from the editor.

What is llms.txt?

llms.txt is a plain-text or Markdown file placed at the root of your domain (for example https://example.com/llms.txt) that lists your site’s most important public URLs. It helps large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity better understand your site’s structure and priority content.

How does the Website LLMs.txt plugin work?

The plugin automatically generates and maintains your llms.txt file based on published content. It pulls titles and descriptions from your site, respects SEO plugin settings (Yoast SEO, Rank Math, SEOPress, and AIOSEO), and excludes anything marked as noindex or nofollow. The file is then served from your site root, ready for AI crawlers to read.

How often is llms.txt updated?

You can set the update frequency in the plugin settings: immediate, daily, or weekly. You can also click “Generate Now” in the admin panel to rebuild the file at any time.

Does this guarantee visibility in ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity?

No. There’s no guarantee that any AI model will immediately use llms.txt, but it’s clear that several systems, including GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and PerplexityBot, are already crawling these files. Using llms.txt positions your site ahead of the curve as AI indexing becomes more structured.

What if my host doesn’t allow writing to the root directory?

The plugin also writes a copy of the file into your uploads folder, and on hosting where the root directory cannot be written, such as WordPress VIP, that copy is the only one. WordPress serves it at https://example.com/llms.txt through a rewrite rule the plugin registers.

Latest changelog entry

8.6.3

🛠 Fixes

  • A page’s uploaded Markdown file couldn’t be removed in the block editor, because the Delete file button did nothing there. It’s now a “Delete this file when saving” checkbox that works in both the block editor and the Classic Editor. Saving the page deletes the file and removes its link from llms.txt at the next update.

Where this page's numbers come from

Read from the WordPress.org plugin API on , when WordPress 7.1.4 was the current release. WordPress.org rounds active installs into buckets. These are the directory's figures, not my verdict, and I haven't tested this plugin.
