## Description

**iGen SEO** is the official bridge between your WordPress site and **[iGen SEO](https://i-gen.ai/)**.
After a simple one-time setup in your dashboard, you can manage your connection,
copy or rotate your site key, and see whether your SEO tools are ready to work with
iGen.

**What you can do**

 * **Link your site** — Add your site in the iGen SEO app using the key from WordPress
   so only you can send content to your site.
 * **Publish from iGen** — Create **posts** and **pages** from your iGen workflow,
   including titles, excerpts, categories, featured images, and SEO title, description,
   and focus keyword when you use a supported SEO plugin.
 * **Stay in sync with your SEO stack** — When **Yoast SEO**, **Rank Math**, or **
   All in One SEO** is active, SEO fields you send from iGen are applied in a way
   that matches that plugin so your on-page SEO stays consistent.
 * **Categories** — Use your WordPress categories when planning and publishing from
   iGen.
 * **IndexNow** — Optional setup from the plugin so search engines can discover 
   updates faster when you use IndexNow-compatible workflows.
 * **Clear WordPress admin** — A dedicated **iGen SEO** screen shows connection 
   status, which SEO plugins are active, your site key, and sensible defaults for
   content created through iGen (such as default author and category).

**Before you start**

 * For the richest SEO experience, install and activate **Yoast SEO**, **Rank Math**,
   or **All in One SEO**. The plugin will remind you if Yoast SEO is missing; other
   SEO plugins work without that notice.
 * The plugin follows your WordPress **site language** for admin messages and includes
   Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese language packs.

**About iGen**

Built by **[IGen](https://i-gen.ai/)** for teams that want AI-assisted content and
SEO workflows tied to a real WordPress site.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `igen-seo-api` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/` or install from the 
    Plugins screen.
 2. Activate **iGen SEO** through the Plugins menu.
 3. In the WordPress admin, open **iGen SEO**, copy your site key, and add your WordPress
    URL in the iGen SEO app to finish linking.
 4. Optionally install **Yoast SEO**, **Rank Math**, or **All in One SEO** so SEO metadata
    from iGen is written the way those plugins expect.

## FAQ

### Do I need Yoast SEO?

No. Core connection and publishing from iGen work without Yoast. For automatic SEO
title, meta description, and focus keyword on your content, use **Yoast SEO**, **
Rank Math**, or **All in One SEO**—whichever you prefer.

### Which content types are supported?

Publishing supports **posts** and **pages**. SEO field alignment applies to those
types when your SEO plugin is active.

### How do I connect iGen to my site?

Open **iGen SEO** in WordPress, copy the site key, then paste it (or follow the 
in-app steps) where iGen SEO asks for your WordPress connection.

### Translations

Admin strings follow your WordPress **Settings  General  Site Language**. This plugin
includes Chinese (Taiwan) and Chinese (China) packs; see the `languages` folder 
if you want to contribute more locales.

## Changelog

#### 1.3.11

 * Preserve `extra_meta._elementor_data` as validated JSON during publish (skip `
   wp_kses_post`) to prevent Elementor payload corruption.

#### 1.3.10

 * Roll back Elementor publish behavior to match 1.3.8 logic while keeping 1.3.10
   release numbering.

#### 1.3.9

 * Publish: when `extra_meta._elementor_data` is present, store Elementor JSON only
   in post meta — leave `post_content` empty so the front end does not show raw 
   Elementor data
 * Meta: stop running `wp_kses_post` on `_elementor_data` (can corrupt Elementor
   JSON)

#### 1.3.8

 * REST: `POST /igen-seo/v1/media-from-url` — import image from URL into Media Library
   using API key only (for iGen / Dify pipelines)

#### 1.3.7

 * Improved site key visibility toggle and related admin UI layout
 * Updated Simplified and Traditional Chinese translations

#### 1.3.1

 * Refreshed readme and short description for clarity (user-focused)

#### 1.3.0

 * Align SEO meta to Yoast, Rank Math, and AIOSEO when each plugin is active
 * Redesigned Settings UI (iGen SEO)

#### 1.0.0

 * Initial release
 * Register Yoast SEO meta fields to REST API
 * Support for page and post post types
 * Added permission control mechanism
