AI chatbot for Advanced Gutenberg: block library and profile help
SleekAI maps Advanced Gutenberg's advgb_blocks_list option, the advgb_profiles custom post type, and the advgb_blocks_user_roles permissions into the chatbot, so editors can ask which blocks their role can use and admins can audit profile assignments. Bring your own OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or OpenRouter key.

A profile and block manager copilot for Advanced Gutenberg
Advanced Gutenberg Blocks (PublishPress Blocks / Advanced Gutenberg) lets admins control which Gutenberg blocks are enabled, define editor profiles, and assign profiles to user roles. The data lives in option keys like advgb_blocks_list, the advgb_profiles custom post type, and the advgb_blocks_user_roles map. There are also block-specific attributes on the post content for the plugin's own blocks (Container, Accordion, Tabs, Map, Newsletter). Editors who want to know why a teammate cannot use a specific block usually file a ticket.
SleekAI exposes the advgb option keys, the profiles post type, and the parsed block attributes as named variables. An admin types, which Advanced Gutenberg profile is the editor role using, and the bot reads the actual role mapping and quotes the allowed and disallowed blocks. A user-facing version can answer, can I use the Map block on this page, by checking the current user's role against the profile. Display conditions limit the bot to admins by default.
Generic chatbots have no idea what an Advanced Gutenberg profile is, and they cannot read the role-to-profile assignment table. SleekAI's Wizard maps those options and the profiles post type in two clicks. Conversations log model name, tokens, and the page each question came from, so admins see which block restrictions actually confuse their team, which is useful when designing new editor permissions.

Features
What SleekAI gives you for Advanced Gutenberg Blocks
Profile and role aware
The bot reads which Advanced Gutenberg profile every WordPress role is mapped to, and which blocks each profile allows. That makes it trivial to answer, why can't this user insert this block, without manual admin clicks.
Block library state
Advanced Gutenberg stores a list of every core, plugin, and Advanced Gutenberg block and whether it is enabled. The bot quotes the current state, so audits like, which blocks did we disable in 2023, return real answers fast.
Permission audit ready
Ask for every block restricted for the Contributor role, or every block allowed only to admins. The bot returns a complete list pulled from the real config, useful for compliance reviews on regulated content sites.
Use cases
Where teams use SleekAI with Advanced Gutenberg
Editor permissions support
When an editor pings asking why they cannot use a block, the bot reads the role-to-profile mapping and answers with the exact profile and the exact disallowed block, so admins stop investigating manually.
Compliance review
Ask the bot for every block restricted for guest writers and freelancers, then export the answer into a quarterly compliance review. The data comes from the real config, not memory.
Profile cleanup
After a few years, profiles tend to accumulate forgotten exceptions. The bot lists each profile's allowed and disallowed blocks, so unused profiles or stale rules get pruned.
The bigger picture
Why Advanced Gutenberg sites benefit from chat
Advanced Gutenberg solves a real problem on multi-author WordPress sites. It restricts which blocks each role can use, which blocks load globally, and which settings each editor sees in the block sidebar. The flexibility comes with admin overhead.
Each new profile is one more configuration to maintain. Each role-to-profile mapping is another thing to remember. After a year or two, admins lose track of which profile allows what, and editors file tickets every time they cannot insert a block they expect.
A chat interface compresses that workflow. The admin types a plain question, the bot reads the same options and the same profiles post type Advanced Gutenberg reads, and the answer cites the actual profile and the actual restriction. That turns the plugin from a tool admins dread maintaining into a tool they can actually audit.
SleekAI does not change profiles or assignments. It surfaces what Advanced Gutenberg already knows, in a place admins are willing to use it.
Questions
Common questions about SleekAI for Advanced Gutenberg Blocks
Both. The free plugin already stores profiles in advgb_profiles, the block list in advgb_blocks_list, and the role mapping in advgb_blocks_user_roles. SleekAI reads those whether or not PublishPress Blocks Pro is active. Pro features like advanced newsletter integration require Pro to be active for the bot to quote them.
 The Wizard exposes advgb_blocks_list, the advgb_profiles custom post type, advgb_blocks_user_roles, the Newsletter block options, and the parsed block attributes for Container, Accordion, Tabs, Map, and Image Slider. Any other option or block attribute can be mapped in two clicks.
 Yes. Use multibot. One bot is admin-only on wp-admin and explains profile assignments. A second bot is logged-in editor-facing on edit screens and answers, can I use this block, by checking the current user's role and profile against the block list. Each gets its own system message and display conditions.
 Yes. The Newsletter block stores its list ID, fields, and double opt-in flag in the block attributes plus a couple of options. The bot can quote which lists each Newsletter block writes to, useful when a marketing team has several lists and needs to verify a campaign block points to the right one before publishing.
 No. SleekAI is read-only by default. Action toolcalls are opt-in and disabled out of the box. The bot identifies the right profile or block restriction, but the actual permission change is still a manual admin click, which keeps the audit trail clean for sites that have to demonstrate access control.
 Yes. Display conditions support user role, logged-in state, and URL pattern. A typical setup limits the admin bot to administrators on /wp-admin/ and pages under the Advanced Gutenberg menu. A separate editor-facing bot can run alongside under multibot with its own role-limited rules.
 Only to the LLM provider whose key you supply. SleekAI sends the context the system message requests to OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or OpenRouter under your own account, and you pick the model. Nothing routes through SleekAI servers, and you can pin everything to a strict data retention provider.
 Yes if you map the reusable blocks post type and the advgb option that tracks pattern category assignments. The bot lists which reusable blocks are in which Advanced Gutenberg pattern categories, and which roles can access each pattern, useful when the team has dozens of patterns and unclear ownership.
