This n8n template automates the creation of AI-generated summaries for WordPress blog posts. It retrieves newly published content, generates a concise summary using OpenAI, and automatically updates the post with a formatted summary block. The workflow also logs each processed post into Google Sheets and notifies a Slack channel, ensuring your editorial team stays up to date.
Designed for flexibility, the template supports both scheduled triggers and webhooks for real-time automation, while smart filters and classifiers prevent duplicate or redundant summaries.
