Knowledge & Content Sync

The Knowledge page controls what content is synced to Intufind's cloud, forming the AI knowledge base that powers search, chat, and recommendations.

Navigate to Intufind → Knowledge in your WordPress admin.

How Content Sync Works

Intufind maintains a synchronized copy of your public content in the cloud:

1. Initial sync — All selected content is sent to the cloud
2. Real-time sync — Changes sync automatically when you publish, update, or delete content
3. Scheduled sync — A background job periodically ensures everything stays in sync
4. Change detection — Only modified content is re-synced to save resources

Post Types

What Gets Extracted

For each content type, Intufind extracts and indexes:

Content Type	Indexed Data
Posts/Pages	Title, content, excerpt, featured image URL, categories, tags, author, publish date

Product Attributes	Size, color, material, etc.

Custom Taxonomies

Sync Settings

Configure how and when automatic synchronization runs.

Auto-Sync

Default: On

When enabled, content changes sync automatically:

• On publish — New content syncs immediately
• On update — Modified content re-syncs
• On delete — Removed content is deleted from the cloud

Disable this only if you want full manual control over syncing.

Sync Interval

Default: 24 hours Range: 1-168 hours

How often the scheduled background sync runs. This catches any changes that might have been missed by real-time sync.

Interval	Use Case
1-4 hours	Frequently changing inventory
24 hours	Most websites (recommended)
168 hours (1 week)	Rarely changing content

Sync Hour

Default: 3:00 AM (server time)

The hour when scheduled sync runs. Choose a low-traffic time for your site.

Manual Sync

Trigger an immediate sync for specific content types:

1. Go to Intufind → Knowledge
2. In the post types section, find the content type
3. Click the Sync button

Or trigger a full sync:

1. Click Sync All Content
2. Wait for the sync to complete

When to Use Manual Sync

• After bulk importing content
• After making changes while auto-sync was disabled
• To force a refresh after fixing content issues
• After changing which post types are selected

Sync Status by Item

You can view and control sync status for individual posts and products:

1. Go to Posts or Products in WordPress admin
2. Look for the Sync column
3. Toggle sync on/off for individual items

Excluding Content

To exclude specific items from sync:

• Individual items: Toggle off in the Sync column
• Bulk exclude: Select items → Bulk Actions → Exclude from Intufind

Excluded content won't appear in search results or be available to the AI chat.

What's NOT Synced

Intufind only indexes publicly available content:

Synced	Not Synced
✓ Published posts/pages	✗ Drafts
✓ Published products	✗ Private content
✓ Public custom post types	✗ Password-protected pages
✓ Public taxonomies	✗ User personal data
	✗ System post types (revisions, nav menus, etc.)

Cloud Cleanup

Intufind automatically removes orphaned documents from the cloud:

• Content deleted from WordPress is removed from the cloud
• Content types that are deselected are cleaned up
• Scheduled sync identifies and removes stale documents

Troubleshooting

Content not appearing in search

1. Verify the post type is selected in Knowledge
2. Check the content is published (not draft/private)
3. Ensure the item's Sync toggle is enabled
4. Trigger a manual sync and check Status for errors

Sync taking too long

Large catalogs (10,000+ items) may take several minutes:

• Sync runs in batches automatically
• Progress is shown on the Status page
• Don't navigate away during manual syncs

Custom post type not appearing

1. Ensure the post type is registered as public => true
2. Check that the registering plugin is active
3. Custom post types must be registered before Intufind loads (priority 10 on init)

Next Steps

• Search Settings — Configure search behavior
• Chat Settings — Enable the chat widget
• Status — Monitor sync health
