Show HN: Added WordPress Plugin for Llmscentral.com (llmscentral.com)

LLMS Central has released a free, open-source WordPress plugin (LLMS Central - AI Bot Tracker v1.0.0, GPL v2) that lets site owners detect and monitor AI crawlers visiting their pages with a simple install. The plugin identifies 16+ AI bots — e.g., GPTBot (OpenAI), Claude‑Web (Anthropic), Google‑Extended/Gemini, Perplexity, Bytespider (TikTok), Cohere, FacebookBot, Amazonbot — and feeds real‑time, page‑level analytics into an LLMS Central dashboard (requires a free account). It also provides llms.txt management (the "robots.txt for AI") directly from WordPress, a dashboard widget, and claims zero performance impact via an asynchronous <2KB tracking script; compatible with major caching plugins and WordPress 5.8+/PHP 7.4+. This matters because publishers and developers increasingly need visibility into which LLM providers are harvesting web content — for content-protection, AI-focused SEO, compliance with training permissions, and competitive intelligence. The plugin’s privacy stance (only user‑agents, URLs, timestamps; no IPs or personal data) is attractive for compliance, but its detection is based on user‑agent strings and thus vulnerable to spoofing. Additionally, analytics depend on the external LLMS Central service and a free account. Overall, it’s a lightweight, purpose-built tool that fills a growing gap for WordPress sites wanting actionable insights into AI crawler behavior and llms.txt governance.
