Inline editor

The inline editor integration adds an AI assistant toolbar button to the standard Shopware rich-text editor. Wherever you have a text editor — product description, category description, custom fields backed by HTML type, mail templates — you can highlight any text, click the AI assistant button, and pick an action from the dropdown menu.

Available actions

The AI assistant dropdown offers:

• Improve — rewrite the selection with a preset (same presets as Improve).
• Chat — refine the text iteratively: describe what to change, see the proposal, keep chatting until you’re happy. See Iterative improve chat below.
• Translate — translate the selection to one or more languages
• Unify formatting — apply a format spec to the selection
• Generate content — write fresh content for the field from model knowledge, a web search, or a per-product source URL
• Generate from URL — fetch one or more URLs and write a description from their content

A separate context menu action proposes fetch-domain config (CSS selectors) for a given URL — used by the URL fetcher when it can’t extract content from a new domain.

Note

These are the text operations available from inside a rich-text editor. On a product the same AI assistant button on each card also opens SEO, category and keyword suggestions, field mapping, image finder and image editing — each covered on its own feature page.

Iterative improve chat

Improve in the inline editor isn’t only one-shot. After the model returns a first proposal, you can keep iterating: type a follow-up like “Less salesy” or “Mention the wood species” and the modal will re-run the rewrite with your feedback woven in. Each turn is driven by the inline.improve_chat template (a chat variant of inline.improve) and the chat history is saved alongside the other AI assistant chat sessions so you can reopen the conversation later.

How to use

1. In any rich-text editor in the admin, select the text you want to operate on (or place the cursor where you want the result).
2. Click the AI assistant button on the toolbar.
3. Pick an action from the dropdown menu.
4. Configure the action in the modal (preset, target languages, custom instructions, URL list for Generate from URL, etc.).
5. Click Run AI. Each target language gets its own tab with a preview and a Compare button showing the diff.
6. Tick the Apply switch on the languages you want, edit anything you want, then click Apply. The selected text is replaced inline. Click Save on the surrounding form to persist.

Configuration

Each inline action is backed by a prompt template: inline.improve, inline.improve_chat, inline.translate, inline.unify, inline.describe_from_url, inline.suggest_fetch_domain_config. There’s also a shared inline.plain_text_format template appended to the other inline system prompts when the target field is short plain text (e.g. a product name) — it forces a concise single-line title instead of an expanded description. You can edit each template the same way as any other prompt — see Editing prompts.

You can also save your favourite settings (preset, languages, custom instructions, format spec) as an inline profile so the modal opens pre-filled next time. See Inline profiles.

Tips & gotchas

Tip

The diff viewer (open with Compare) makes it safe to iterate. If you don’t like the proposal, don’t apply — re-run with different instructions until you do.

Caution

Generate from URL requires the page to be reachable from your Shopware host. If the URL is behind authentication or geo-blocked, the fetch will fail. The plugin logs the failure in the API log.
