Custom Prompts: How to Bring your AI Workflow to WordPress

Already prompting in other tools?
Do the same work directly in WordPress—only faster. Write with AI in your WordPress dashboard, keep formatting intact, apply SEO where you publish, and save your best prompts as templates for repeatable, on-brand results.
Write exactly what you want—faster—without copy-paste or tool-hopping. Turn winning prompts into reusable templates so every post ships faster and sounds like you.

What is “Custom Prompts” in Assistini?

The “Custom Prompt” feature is a freeform chat with Assistini—right inside WordPress—driven entirely by your own instructions. You tell the AI what to write, how to write it, and what the final deliverable should look like. You can iterate until it’s right, then polish with the AI Editor Assistant (titles, headings, keywords, meta) before you publish.
Best for: experienced creators who want unique formats, strict brand voice, or non-standard posts beyond guided workflows.

What’s in it for you?

If you already know how to prompt AI, Custom Prompts lets you bring that skill straight into WordPress. You keep full control over tone, structure, and output—while drafting, refining, and optimizing in one place. The result: better posts, shipped faster, with less friction.

How it works (3 quick steps)

  1. Open Custom Prompts in the Assistini dashboard.
  2. Paste or write your prompt (use the blueprint below).
  3. Generate → refine → optimize → publish—no tool switching.

Pro tip: Set default language, tone, and point of view in Assistini settings; override them anytime inside a prompt.

How to Set-up and Use Custom Prompts

Prompt Blueprint for reliable results:
Great outputs come from clear inputs. Use this structure to get predictable, on-brand drafts:

  • Role & Goal: who is writing and the immediate outcome.
    “You are a senior content strategist. Goal: a 1,200–1,400 word blog post that converts readers to newsletter signups.”
  • Audience & Angle: who it’s for and why they should care.
    “Audience: small local businesses prioritizing ROI. Angle: practical, low-cost wins.”
  • Structure: headings, sections, and must-cover points.
    “Use H2/H3s. Sections: intro hook, problem, solution steps, examples, pitfalls, CTA.”
  • Voice & Style cues: brand tone, pacing, do/don’ts.
    “Tone: clear, confident, no hype. Avoid jargon. Use concrete examples.”
  • SEO & Constraints: primary keyword, related terms, limits.
    “Primary keyword: ‘local SEO for small businesses’. Use 2–3 times. Include a 150–160-char meta description and a URL slug.”
  • Evidence & Inputs: links, stats, internal sources.
    “Incorporate insights from these notes [paste] and reference our case example [paste].”
  • Output Format & Acceptance Criteria: what “done” looks like.
    “Deliver Markdown with H2/H3. Include a scannable summary list. End with a single-sentence CTA. No fluff or clichés.”

Example Prompt (copy/paste-ready)

You are a senior content strategist. Write a 1,300-word blog post for small local businesses that need practical, low-cost wins from local SEO in 2025.

  • Structure: H2/H3; sections: hook, what changed in 2025, quick wins (GMB, reviews, local links), pitfalls, 3 mini-case examples, CTA.
  • Voice: clear, actionable, no hype, no buzzwords.
  • SEO: primary keyword ‘local SEO for small businesses’ (use 2–3x); include a 155-char meta description and a short URL slug.
  • Format: Markdown; include a 6-bullet summary checklist after the intro.
  • Acceptance: specific steps, examples with numbers (even if estimated), and one CTA to join the newsletter.

Turn speed into a system with Custom Templates

Stop rebuilding prompts from scratch. Save your best instructions as Custom Templates so you (and your team) produce on-brand content—fast.

Templates can store:

  • Language, tone, POV (override anytime)
  • Section order & formatting rules (H2/H3, bullets, checklists)
  • Preferred phrases & CTAs
  • Writing samples to lock in your voice and cadence

Then, in Custom Prompts, apply a template, add topic specifics, and generate—consistent, on-brand, every time.

Great use cases

  • “How-to tutorial” with fixed steps + checklist
  • “Feature release” → problem • what’s new • impact • setup • CTA
  • “Opinion/analysis” → thesis • evidence • counterpoint • takeaway
  • “Case study” → problem • approach • results • lessons

Why it’s fast: one click to structure + tone; fewer edits later.

When to use Custom Prompts (vs. Quick Guide or Structured Writing)

  • Choose Custom Prompts for full freedom, unusual formats, or strict voice/formatting rules—when speed matters.
  • Choose Quick Guide or Structured Writing when you want a guided path and built-in steps.
  • Mix & match: start in Custom Prompts, then fine-tune titles, headings, keywords, and meta via the AI Editor Assistant.

Can I still optimize content for SEO in this mode?

Yes. You can include SEO-related instructions directly in your prompt (e.g., “Include the keyword ‘AI marketing trends 2025’ three times”), or apply SEO tools from Assistini’s AI Editor Assistant after generating the content.

Can I revise and improve the AI’s output?

Absolutely. You can continue the chat to ask Assistini to:
• Expand, shorten, or rephrase content
• Adjust tone or structure
• Add or remove specific information

You stay in full control throughout the process.
