Hello,
- The topic reply notifications are actually random here (phpBB forum software bug) due to its post approval plugin which doesn't block notifications from being sent for unapproved posts.
Therefore if a newly registered spammer posts spam comments on your topic, the spam comment will not show up but you still receive a notification.
Ideally you should only receive notifications for comments that are actually allowed or approved.
- And for your topic content, the question #2 is missing (or has been omitted, but the question #3 text wasn't updated to #2):
QUESTION #1:
Is it currently possible to integrate ChatGPT into a regular website for the purpose of using ChatGPT as the default search engine for that website, and which will only provide search engine results which are directly and specifically obtained from the content of that website? If so, what web design skills are required in order to achieve this goal?
RESPONSE #1:
...
QUESTION #3:
I already run my own web server on an iMac using Aprelium’s “Abyss Web Server” software. It utilizes mySQL databases and a proprietary version of PHP 7 and PHP 8. Can you provide me with more specific details regarding how to implement OpenAI’s ChatGPT with my current web server setup?
ANSWER #3:
...
- But let's answer these questions in general:
You want to use ChatGPT as a search engine to lookup your database (or your content index) for your website's content only.
If you want to build your own integration from scratch, then you will need more than web skills to achieve this.
If you want to use PHP, then you will need knowledge of the PHP language.
If you want to make dynamic searches that don't need a full page reload you will also need JavaScript with XHR requests.
- For real: something you need to be aware of is that ChatGPT is a trendy fashion-thing for scammers & blackhat SEO spammers.
Looking up ChatGPT tutorials or ChatGPT help online will likely yield the same poisoned search results with worthless information as if you had tried to lookup 'how to find Instagram account password working 2023' online.
It will be a flood of garbage results from the same
~~Ultra Kingz Of SEO BEST 100% {CurrentYear}~~ kind of marketing spammers.
If you find article titles such as 'ultra best 2023 method for find all tiktok password 100% working' to be cringe-inducing...
Then it will be the same thing for fake ChatGPT tutorials online.
- The cautionary advice is now written. Next the actual advice:
Depending on what your website is running on there might already be ready-made plugins to integrate ChatGPT with it.
This is for example WordPress & Drupal.
Otherwise you should only be looking for ChatGPT libraries & examples on developer-friendly websites such as Github.
Make sure that the developers are also known for previous quality work other than just ChatGPT or AI stuff.
For a PHP library here is one example result I could find:
https://github.com/sgraaf/chatgpt-php
For a WordPress plugin I found this one which has a low enough install count (less than 100):
https://wordpress.org/plugins/open-ai-search-bar/
If you use a ready-made plugin you will just have to bring your own OpenAI API key and let the plugin do the technical work for you.
- Notes on WordPress install counts & trustworthiness:
The WordPress plugin repository works the reverse way than online reputation scores.
The trustworthiness of a plugin with a low install count is typically higher than one with millions of installs.
The massively installed ones might have fake installs for cheating analytics, might be over-bloated, or crippled with premium-only features.
Whereas niche little plugins with a very low install count such as 1000 or less appear as rare and likely cleaner, to the point and without bloat.
And never forget: when downloading anything related to ChatGPT, Analytics, Marketing, SEO, advertising or other such infested business fields you should always scan everything you download for hidden backdoors & webshells.
