Turn your forum discussions into professional blog posts or help articles. With the Antimanual “Forum to Post” tool, you can capture valuable community knowledge and improve your site’s search engine ranking. The tool uses AI to clean up messy forum threads, removing extra chatter so you get a clear, easy-to-read document.

Requirements

Before you start, make sure your site is ready:

• Use Forumax or bbPress: You must have one of these plugins installed with active forum data.
• Check Permissions: Your account needs administrator rights to read forum threads and create new posts.
• Configure AI: Ensure your knowledge base settings are active so the AI can function correctly.

Step 1: Pick the Best Topics

Focus on closed or resolved topics. These threads usually contain the final, correct answer. To get the best results:

• Sort topics by status or date.
• Look for popular threads with many replies.
• Prioritize “evergreen” issues that your visitors search for often.

Step 2: Choose Your Settings

Configure how you want your new content to look:

• Post Type: Choose between a blog post or a documentation page.
• Status: Save as a Draft for review or set to Publish to go live immediately.
• Tone: Pick a style (e.g., Technical or Professional). We recommend “Professional” for most help guides.

Step 3: AI Cleanup

The AI filters out “forum chatter” like thank-you messages or off-topic replies. It then creates a clean, organized draft by:

• Identifying the core user problem.
• Combining helpful replies into one clear solution.
• Adding formatting like headers, bullet points, and code blocks automatically.

Step 4: Review and Publish

Always review the AI-generated content. Use this step to:

• Update the title and meta description for better SEO.
• Add internal links to other relevant content.
• Click “Publish” to turn your forum thread into a permanent guide.

Your original forum discussion will stay exactly as it is; the tool simply creates a new, polished version for your site.
