Troubleshooting
API key isn't working
- Go to Lussblog → Settings and click Test Connection.
- Make sure "Enable Cloud Service" is ticked, then save again.
- Toggle the service checkbox off, save, then on again — this triggers a re-registration.
- Check your site is publicly reachable (the cloud service calls back to your WP REST API).
No drafts showing up
- Check the Status tab for last fetch time and system state.
- Trigger a manual generation from the Generate tab and wait 2–3 minutes.
- Free plan has a monthly trigger limit. Check the Status tab for your current usage.
- Visit your cloud portal to check the Drafts page for server-side content.
Content quality issues
- Add 3–5 specific Core Keywords (one per line) in your business profile.
- Write a detailed Target Audience persona (e.g. "independent jewelry designers with 1–5 employees").
- Use Avoid Topics to exclude subjects the AI keeps returning to.
- Try the
EDITcommand to regenerate with a fresh keyword.
