Access the settings at Settings > AI Licensing. The interface is tabbed for ease. Here’s a breakdown of each tab, based on Lite’s features:
General Tab

- Default License: Select your site-wide policy (e.g., Elthian-NoAI for no AI access). Includes descriptions and warnings (e.g., NoAI may reduce AI-driven visibility).
- Date .
- Save Changes: Applies updates and flushes rewrites if needed.
Tip: Start here for core setup. Overrides help tailor policies without per-post edits.
Current Policy Tab

- Active Policy Dashboard: Displays your resolved global policy, including license label, description, and capabilities (e.g., training: prohibited, search: permitted).
- Capability Table: Breaks down permissions like AI access tier, training allowed, inference, commercial use, and more.
- License URL: Link to the full license text on Elthian.com.
Use Case: Quick audit of what signals are being sent.
Signals Tab
- Enable/Disable Outputs: Toggle robots.txt appending, llms.txt endpoint, JSON well-known file, and HTTP headers.
- Preview Signals: Shows sample directives (e.g., robots.txt: “User-agent: * Disallow: /” for NoAI).
- Advanced Notes: Explains how signals work (e.g., headers ensure per-request awareness).
Tip: Enable all for comprehensive signaling. Test by visiting yoursite.com/llms.txt or /.well-known/elthian-ai-policy.json.
Badge Tab
- Badge Location: Choose footer, content bottom, or shortcode ().
- Layout & Size: Select wide/compact/stacked; scale from 70–110%.
- Custom Text/Link: Edit the badge text (e.g., “AI License: %s”) and link to your policy page.
- Preview: Live preview updates as you tweak.
Use Case: Add a human-visible notice to build trust with visitors. Hide per-post via the editor meta box.
Sync Tab
- Opt-In Sync: Enable/disable sharing your policy with Elthian’s server for aggregation (helps with visibility in AI ecosystems).
- Sync Status: Shows last sync time/result (success/error). Manual sync button.
- Privacy Note: Only anonymized policy data is sent — no content or user info.
Tip: Opt-in for better discoverability; disable if privacy is a concern. Runs daily via cron.
Info Tab
- Plugin Details: Version, author, links to docs/support.
- System Info: Quick checks for compatibility (WP/PHP versions).
- Upgrade Teaser: Brief intro to Pro features (e.g., scope rules, analytics).
Use Case: Reference for troubleshooting or exploring Pro.
