Ask the AI to add to, rewrite or rebuild one section or element of a page Learn DXPR BuilderBuild pagesWrite and design with AI ## In this guide Related guides - [Page creation](/hc/documentation/learn-dxpr-builder/ai/page-creation) - [Text commands](/hc/documentation/learn-dxpr-builder/ai/text-commands) - [Undo and redo](/hc/documentation/learn-dxpr-builder/editing/undo-redo) Tell the AI what a section needs, for example a paragraph about parking, and it changes that part of the page for you. It can add content, add a section above or below, or rewrite or replace it. Use this for changes bigger than one paragraph; for a single paragraph, see [Rewrite text with AI](/hc/documentation/learn-dxpr-builder/ai/text-commands). The video adds parking details to an Open Day section. ## Before you start - AI is switched on, with **Enable page creation assistant** ticked. See [Turn on AI in DXPR Builder](/hc/documentation/learn-dxpr-builder/ai/setup). - The page has the section or element you want to change. ## Set up 1. Point at the section and click **More** on its control bar. 2. Choose **Edit with AI**. 3. Describe the change in the box, for example "Add a short paragraph about parking below the text". 4. Click **Generate content**. 5. Wait while the AI makes the change. 6. Click **Save** on the builder toolbar. Every element has the same **Edit with AI** in its **More** menu: a text, a button, a row or a column. You can also select an element and press Ctrl+E (Cmd+E on a Mac). On an Image element, **Edit with AI** creates or edits the picture instead, see [Generate an image with AI](/hc/documentation/learn-dxpr-builder/ai/image-generation). ## What you see While the AI works, a status line says what it is doing, for example "Adding new content at the end..." or "Replacing the selected element...". **Cancel generation** (or Esc) stops it. Then the change appears on the page as normal builder elements, which you edit like any others. The AI chooses where the change goes, based on your words: | Your words | What the AI does | |---|---| | "add ... below", "add ... at the end" | Adds content at the end of the element | | "add ... at the top" | Adds content at the start of the element | | "add a section above" or "below" | Adds a new section before or after it | | "rewrite", "shorten", "translate" | Rewrites the content inside the element | | "replace this with ..." | Replaces the whole element | Not what you wanted? Press Ctrl+Z (Cmd+Z on a Mac) to undo the change, then try clearer words. Open **Edit with AI** again and the box still holds your last request. ## If you don't see the change - **The More menu has no Edit with AI.** **Enable page creation assistant** is off. Tick it at `/admin/dxpr_studio/dxpr_builder/ai_settings`. - **Edit with AI is greyed out.** No AI provider is configured. Follow [Turn on AI in DXPR Builder](/hc/documentation/learn-dxpr-builder/ai/setup). - **A message says "Could not determine which part of the page to change."** The AI could not tell where to put the change. Select the element you mean, open **Edit with AI** on it and say where the change goes, for example "below the heading". - **The status line turns into "Hmm...something seems to have gone wrong."** DXPR could not finish the request, for example because the account is out of credits. Click **Retry**, or check **Credits remaining** at `/admin/dxpr_studio/dxpr_builder/ai_settings`. ## What's next? - [Draft a page with AI](/hc/documentation/learn-dxpr-builder/ai/page-creation): start a whole page from a brief. - [Rewrite text with AI](/hc/documentation/learn-dxpr-builder/ai/text-commands): change the tone of one paragraph. - [Undo and redo](/hc/documentation/learn-dxpr-builder/editing/undo-redo): step back through your changes.
