FAQ

Do I need an Anthropic API key?

Yes. The plugin uses Anthropic’s Claude API to generate lead magnet content. You can get an API key at console.anthropic.com. Anthropic charges based on token usage — a typical lead magnet generation costs a few cents.

What formats are available?

The current version generates checklists — structured lists of actionable items with titles and descriptions. More formats (ebooks, cheat sheets, workbooks, templates) are planned for future releases.

Is the plugin free?

The plugin itself is free. You only pay for Anthropic API usage, which is based on how many tokens each generation uses. The free tier allows 3 lead magnet generations per month. You can increase this limit in Settings.

Can I edit the generated content?

Absolutely. Every generated lead magnet is saved as a WordPress post that you can edit in the standard WordPress editor. Change the title, rewrite sections, add your own content — it’s fully editable before you publish.

How do I display the opt-in form on my site?

Two ways:

Shortcode: Add [almg_lead_magnet id="123"] to any post, page, or widget (replace 123 with your lead magnet’s ID)
Gutenberg block: Search for “Lead Magnet Opt-In” in the block inserter, select your lead magnet, and customize the title and button text

Where do subscribers go?

Subscribers are stored in your WordPress database. View them at Lead Magnets > Subscribers, where you can filter by lead magnet and export the full list as a CSV file for import into Mailchimp, ConvertKit, or any email service.

Is it GDPR compliant?

The plugin anonymizes IP addresses before storing them and links to your site’s Privacy Policy page on the opt-in form. However, you are responsible for your own GDPR compliance — make sure your privacy policy covers email collection.

What happens if the AI generation fails?

You’ll see a clear error message explaining what went wrong (invalid API key, rate limit, network issue, etc.). Your generation count is only incremented on successful generations, so failed attempts don’t count against your monthly limit.

Can I customize the PDF design?

Yes. Go to Lead Magnets > Settings and set your company name, accent color, and whether to show your site logo on the cover page. These settings apply to all generated PDFs.
