AI Plugins Posts
Here is a FAQ for the AI tools in Perchance.
We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin
and ai-text-plugin
) e.g. “What is the good prompt for X?”, “How to achieve X with Y generator?”
There are guides, tutorials, and resources on the internet that can be applied when prompting in the AI tools in Perchance.
We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.
If you need help in prompting, please post on the ‘sister’ forum at Casual Perchance

Asking for help
Feel free to ask for help but please check out these tips on searching for an answer:
- Check the following pages, to see if your question has already been answered or talked about or a plugin has been made for it. We recommend using the browser’s search function (
ctrl+f
) and searching for similar keywords to your question/problem. - If you didn’t find anything about your problem there, feel free to search through the posts/articles here:
- If you can’t still find anything related to your problem, feel free to post a thread here.
- Please title your post effectively.
- Please provide a link to your generator with your attempts of solving the problem.
- Try to explain what you want it to do and what example output it should be doing.
Could you remove that giant thumbnail perhaps? Might have to remove the link of the post, and just put it in the body to do that. It’s just taking over the main feed pretty heavily unfortunately. I don’t know why it works like that on here.
