Content

Content is the core of what an agent does on a WordPress site: creating, editing, organizing, and publishing your posts, pages, and any other content type. If you only used Maxi for one thing, it would probably be this.

The Content capability covers the full life of a piece of content — from creating it, through editing and organizing, to publishing or scheduling it. It works across every content type on your site, not just posts and pages: products, portfolio items, events, or any custom type your site defines are all handled the same way.

Creating and editing

The agent can create new content and edit existing content from your description:

“Draft a new About page with sections for our story, team, and contact details.”
“Update the intro on the homepage to mention our new opening hours.”

New content is created as a draft by default, so nothing goes live until you decide it should — you review first, then publish. When editing, the agent reads the existing content before changing it and adjusts what you asked for rather than regenerating the whole thing, so your existing work is preserved.

Changing content requires an administrator-level agent — a safeguard enforced in Maxi’s code (see Manage Agent Users). A lower-privileged agent can read and suggest, but not alter your content.

Publishing, scheduling, and status

You control when content goes live:

  • Publish or unpublish — move something between draft, published, private, or pending.
  • Schedule — set content to publish automatically at a future date and time.
  • Trash and restore — move content to the trash or bring it back.

“Schedule this post to go live next Monday at 9am.”
“Set these three pages back to draft for now.”

Finding and listing content

The agent can locate content for you, whether you know what you’re looking for or want an overview:

  • Search — by keyword, and also by category, tag, custom field, author, or date range. Search covers all content types, so “find everything mentioning the spring sale” reaches posts, pages, and products alike.
  • List — browse content of a type with filters (status, author, parent) and sorting, paged for large sites.

“Find all draft posts older than six months.”
“List every published product, newest first.”

Organizing

Beyond the words on the page, the agent can manage structural relationships:

  • Duplicate — copy an existing item (with its settings and metadata) as a new draft, handy as a starting template.
  • Set the author — reassign who a piece of content belongs to.
  • Set the parent — arrange hierarchical content, like placing a page beneath another in your page tree.

“Duplicate this landing page so I can make a variant.”
“Make the ‘Pricing’ page a child of ‘Services’.”

What it’s good for

  • Drafting and editing any content type from a plain-language brief.
  • Bulk tidying — finding stale drafts, re-statusing batches, reorganizing a page tree.
  • Scheduling a content calendar without logging in to publish each item.
  • Templating — duplicating a proven layout as the basis for new pieces.

In summary: Content is Maxi’s core capability — create, edit, publish, schedule, duplicate, search, list, and organize posts, pages, and any custom content type, all from conversation. New content starts as a draft and editing preserves what’s there; publishing and scheduling put you in control of timing; and changing content requires an administrator, by design.
