The Settings page (Supercharger → Settings) contains all global configuration options for the plugin. Settings are organized into tabs.
API Integration
Configure your AI provider connections.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Generation Provider | The AI provider used for all text generation tasks (OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, OpenRouter). |
| API Key | The API key for the selected generation provider. |
| Model | Optionally specify a model name. Leave blank to use the provider’s default. |
| OpenAI API Key | Required for embeddings (vector indexing and all recommendation modules). Separate from the generation provider key. |
| Embedding Model | Which OpenAI embedding model to use: text-embedding-3-large (recommended), text-embedding-3-small (lower cost), or text-embedding-ada-002 (legacy). Changing this requires a full re-index. |
| Daily Spending Limit | Set a maximum daily API spend to prevent unexpected charges. |
| Dry Run Mode | When enabled, logs what API calls would be made without actually sending them. Useful for testing. |
Content & Indexing
Control which content Supercharger processes and how background tasks run.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Post Types | Which post types are indexed and processed. |
| Post Statuses | Which post statuses are eligible for processing (e.g., Published only). |
| Cron Frequency | How often the background indexing/generation cron runs: every 15, 30, or 45 minutes; hourly; twice daily; daily; or weekly. |
| Batch Size | How many posts to process per cron run. |
Styles
Global design tokens that apply to all modules by default. Individual modules can override these in their own Settings → Styles tab.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Colors | Primary, accent color, background, surface, text, and border colors. |
| Border Radius | Corner rounding for widgets, cards, thumbnails, buttons, and badges. |
| Spacing | Padding and gap values used across module layouts. |
| Borders & Shadows | Border width, shadow offset, blur, spread, and color. |
Performance
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Combine Assets | Merge all module CSS and JS into single files to reduce HTTP requests. |
| Style Preset | Select a global preset that adjusts visual styling across all modules. See [Style Presets](#style-presets) below. |
Style Presets
Presets are a quick way to change the visual character of all modules at once. They work by overriding specific CSS variables globally. Individual modules inherit the active preset but can still be customized further.
| Preset | What it changes |
|---|---|
| Standard | The full default appearance — backgrounds, borders, shadows, colors, and rounded corners. Starting point for all customization. |
| Flat | Removes all drop shadows. Everything else remains unchanged. |
| Minimal | Replaces all accent and gradient colors with a neutral black/white/gray palette. No brand colors, no gradients. |
| Outline | Removes widget and card backgrounds (transparent), keeping only borders. Modules appear as outlined boxes that inherit your page background. |
| Sharp | Removes all border radius (square corners everywhere) and drops all shadows. |
| Embedded | The most stripped-back preset. Removes padding, borders, backgrounds, and shadows entirely. Module content blends directly into the article text with no visible container. |
> Note: In the Embedded preset, the Badge type option for AI-generated labels is not available. The Badge type positions the label absolutely at the edge of the module container, but in Embedded mode there is no visible container edge, so the label would float without context.
Caching & Cleanup

|---|---|---|
| Statistics Retention | How many days to keep engagement stats before auto-deletion. | 90 days |
| Log Retention | How many days to keep activity log entries. | 7 days |
