ChatGPT (OpenAI)
Set up ChatGPT (OpenAI) with your own API key.
Version: 1.0.1Last updated
ChatGPT is made by OpenAI. You use your own API key, and OpenAI bills you directly for what you translate.
Get a key
- In WordPress, go to Settings > MeloTools AI Translation and click the ChatGPT tile.
- Click Open key page. It opens platform.openai.com/api-keys.
- Sign in, create a key with a clear name (for example your site name) and copy it.
- Set a spending limit in the console if one is offered.
API usage is billed separately from a ChatGPT Plus subscription: add credit to your OpenAI platform account.
Add the key
- Paste the key into API key.
- Leave Model (optional) empty to use the default, or enter another model ID from the provider.
- Click Save and activate, then Test connection.
The key is encrypted and saved to your user account only. See Security.
Cost and limits
You pay OpenAI per amount of text.
Translate one page first, then check usage in the provider console to estimate the cost of the whole site.
Remove or replace a key
Click the tile, then Remove key. If a key may have leaked, delete it in the provider's console first, then save a new one.
