Copy-paste-ready prompts for things customers do often. Tweak any of these to your situation.

Content

1. Bulk-update SEO metadata: “Find every post in the Recipes category whose meta description is empty. Generate a 150-character meta description for each based on the post’s intro paragraph. Show me the list before saving.”
2. Republish a missed scheduled post: “List posts with status ‘future’ whose post_date is in the past. Republish them now.”
3. Old post refresh: “Find posts older than 2 years that still get traffic. Show me the top 10 — I’ll pick which ones to refresh.”

Design

4. Clone a site’s vibe: “Look at stripe.com and apply that color palette and font stack to my site theme.”
5. Add a CTA section: “On every landing page in my Pages list, add a CTA section above the footer with the heading ‘Get started’ and a button to /pricing/.”
6. Mobile fix: “The hero on my homepage is overlapping the navigation on mobile. Inspect and fix.”

WooCommerce

7. Bulk price update: “Apply a 20% discount to every product in the Summer Sale category. Show me the before/after table first.”
8. Out-of-stock cleanup: “Find every product with stock 0 that’s been out of stock for more than 30 days. Move them to draft status.”
9. Order follow-up: “Find orders from the last 30 days with status ‘on hold’. Add a customer-visible note asking them to retry payment.”

Moderation

10. Comment queue triage: “List my pending comments. Approve anything clearly real. Mark obvious spam as spam. Show me anything ambiguous for me to decide.”
11. Spam cleanup: “Delete every comment in spam that’s older than 30 days.”

Site management

12. User audit: “List users who registered in the last 30 days but have never logged in. I’ll decide what to do with each.”
13. Plugin audit: “Show me a list of every active plugin with its current version, last update date, and whether an update is available.”
14. Safe pre-launch: “Back up my site, then walk me through your standard 5-minute pre-launch checklist.”

Diagnostics

15. Site went down: “Investigate before doing anything destructive. Check hosting status, DNS/SSL, recent changes in the last 2 hours, PHP error log, database connection.”
