Contao OpenAI Bundle

The purpose of this extension is to quickly and easily generate meta descriptions and titles from page content using ChatGPT (OpenAI).

Below we have summarized a few best practices to achieve relatively good results. Additional features are planned in the future that will make the expansion even better.

Getting started

composer require cubex-hro/contao-openai-bundle

Compability

Contao Version	PHP Version
>= 4.9	^7.0 ǀǀ ^8.0

Important note

• An OpenAI developer account is required. Sign up here.
• The required token is also created there.
• There is a fee to use the OpenAI API. An overview of OpenAI pricing can be found here: https://openai.com/pricing
• We tested a lot and so far we haven't gotten more than $5 a month

TinyMCE Plugin notes

Please make sure you don't have a custom be_tinyMCE.html5 template. If so, take a look at src/Resources/contao/templates/be_tinyMCE.html5 and adjust the relevant places manually.

Best practise

• define usage limit in OpenAPI API Backend to have control over costs

How to use

• Insert token
• Choose GPT model
• Insert preferred Meta-title prompt (e.g. Schreibe für folgenden Text einen prägnanten Seitentitel bestehend aus 5 bis 6 Wörtern:)
• Insert preferred Meta-description prompt (e.g. Schreibe für folgenden Text eine informative/emphatische/ansprechende Seitenbeschreibung, die weniger als 160 Zeichen inklusive Leerzeichen enthält:)
• Set temperature (recommended: 0.5)
• Set max_tokens (recommended: 300)
• Set optional settings like hidden elements and custom fields
• Go to page settings and use the buttons below SERP preview
• Enjoy the magic :)

To-Do

• Integrate token calculator (e.g. GPT-3-Encoder-PHP)
• Content weighting through ChatGPT as pre-fetch event
• Define personality profile (role) for Chat completions API model
• Considerations and testing for the actual maximum character length for the request
• Considerations on how serialized content will be handled in the future
• Make costs per Request more transparent (show used tokens and calculate with OpenAI pricing)
• do
• some
• magic🪄
