Hello,
Thanks for your message. Honestly, we wouldn’t know what to suggest in this case, I’m sorry. The whole source code of our plugins has been written by our programmers without the help of any AI model, and considering the capabilities of AI models related to coding, our suggestion is to use prompts that show a specific piece of code to request an alteration.
However, please keep in mind that the 90% of the source code uses custom and built-in PHP classes, methods and functions, which are referenced across 1000+ PHP files that get loaded automatically when invoked. This means that no AI model could ever be so accurate in analysing the code for the prompt or with the elaborated PHP code for the response. The most you are going to get is probably examples that may not securely fit on a WordPress environment, especially if the database is involved.
For sure, AI models can be helpful over small portions of code only, but it all depends on the customization you need to perform. One important thing to notice is that any customization should be made through custom plugins and hooks, or by using the apposite “Overrides Manager” tool in the configuration page. We strongly discourage to alter the native PHP code, or by installing future updates your changes will go lost, or even worse, you won’t be able to install any future update, which may lead to critical issues of any kind.
We hope this helps!
The VikWP Team
