## 説明
**Rank Bix SEO** is the lightweight SEO plugin that gives you everything you need
and nothing you don’t. No bloat, no feature paywalls, no forced upgrades. Professional
SEO tools that just work.

#### The SEO Plugin That Respects Your Site
Most SEO plugins are either too bloated, too complex, or lock essential features
behind expensive plans. Rank Bix SEO is different. Every core feature is free, the
codebase is lean, and you stay in control.
#### Multi-AI Meta Generator
Generate SEO titles and meta descriptions using your own API keys – no middleman
markup. Choose from **OpenAI (GPT-4o)**, **Claude (Anthropic)**, **Google Gemini**,**
Groq**, or **Cohere**. Generate one post at a time or run bulk generation across
hundreds of posts in minutes.
#### Live SEO Score and Keyword Analysis
A live SEO score ring shows a 0-100 score as you write. See keyword density, whether
your focus keyword appears in the title and description, content word count, reading
time, and internal/external link counts – all updated in real time without running
a separate analysis tool.
#### SERP Preview
See exactly how your page will look in Google search results before you publish.
Switch between **Desktop** and **Mobile** previews. Featured image thumbnail shown
alongside the snippet – just like Google displays it.

### External Services
Rank Bix SEO optionally connects to third-party AI services and search engine ping
endpoints.
No data is sent to AI providers unless you configure an API key and manually click
an AI generation button. Search engine pings can be disabled in settings.
#### AI Providers
The following services are contacted only when you have configured the corresponding
API key in **Rank Bix SEO Settings Advanced AI Keys** and clicked an AI generation
button in the post editor.
When triggered, Rank Bix SEO sends the post title, site name, tone preference, and
optionally a plain-text excerpt of the post content. You can disable sending post
content in the same settings screen.
**OpenAI**
* Endpoint: `https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions` for generation and `https://
api.openai.com/v1/models` for model list

* Terms of Service: https://cohere.com/terms-of-use
* Privacy Policy: https://cohere.com/privacy
#### Search Engine Pings
When a post is published and the Auto-ping setting is enabled, Rank Bix SEO sends
a lightweight HTTP GET request to notify search engines of the updated sitemap.
Only the public sitemap URL is transmitted. No post content, user data, or private
content is sent.
* Google Ping: `https://www.google.com/ping?sitemap=`
* Bing Ping: `https://www.bing.com/ping?sitemap=`
You can disable automatic pings at **Rank Bix SEO Settings Sitemap Auto-pings
Google & Bing on publish**.
Google Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
Microsoft Privacy Statement:
https://privacy.microsoft.com/en-us/privacystatement
#### IndexNow
When the IndexNow feature is enabled and a post or page is published or updated,
Rank Bix SEO sends a single HTTP POST request to the IndexNow API endpoint to notify
participating search engines (Bing, Yandex, and others) of the updated URL.
* Endpoint: `https://api.indexnow.org/indexnow`
* Data sent: your site hostname, a plugin-generated verification key, the URL of
the verification key file, and the URL of the published/updated post or page.
No post content or user data is sent.
* When: only on post/page publish or update, and only if IndexNow is enabled in**
Rank Bix SEO Settings Tools IndexNow**.
IndexNow is an open protocol. The `api.indexnow.org` endpoint is operated by Microsoft.
Submitted URLs are shared with all IndexNow-participating search engines.
IndexNow Privacy Policy: https://www.indexnow.org/privacypolicy
Microsoft Privacy
Statement: https://privacy.microsoft.com/en-us/privacystatement
#### Broken Link Checker
When the Broken Link Checker feature is enabled, Rank Bix SEO runs a background
cron job that sends HTTP HEAD requests to external URLs found in your post content
to check whether those links are still reachable.
* Data sent: a standard HTTP HEAD request to each external URL found in your published
post content. No post content, user data, or authentication credentials are included
in these requests. The requests appear as ordinary browser-like HEAD requests
to the destination server.
* When: only via a background WP-Cron job (runs twice daily, 5 posts per run).
The feature is **disabled by default** and must be explicitly enabled in **Rank
Bix SEO Settings Tools Broken Link Checker**.
* Destinations: any external URLs present in your own published post content. These
are third-party URLs you have already linked to; Rank Bix SEO does not choose
or control them.
No data from the broken link check is transmitted to Rank Bix SEO or any service
operated by the plugin developer. Results are stored only in your own WordPress
database.

* FAQ Schema
* HowTo Schema
## インストール
1. Upload the `rankbix-seo` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
2. Activate the plugin through **Plugins Installed Plugins**.
3. Go to **Rank Bix SEO** in the WordPress admin menu.
4. Configure your settings under **Rank Bix SEO Settings**.
5. Edit any post or page to add SEO title, meta description, focus keyword, schema,
social image, and other SEO settings.
## FAQ
### Does Rank Bix SEO work with WooCommerce?
Yes. Rank Bix SEO supports WooCommerce products in the post editor meta box, bulk
SEO editor, sitemap, and schema features.
### Does Rank Bix SEO support custom post types?
Yes. Rank Bix SEO supports public custom post types with UI. They can be used in
the SEO meta box, sitemap, and bulk editor.
### Can I import SEO data from Yoast SEO, Rank Math, or All in One SEO?
Yes. Go to **Rank Bix SEO Content Manager Import SEO** tab and choose your source
plugin. Rank Bix SEO can import SEO titles, meta descriptions, focus keywords, canonical
URLs, and noindex settings.
### Will Rank Bix SEO slow down my website?
No. Rank Bix SEO is designed for performance. The XML sitemap is cached, AI model
lists are loaded only when needed, and redirects use a dedicated database table
with a fast lookup process.
### Do I need an API key for AI features?
Yes. You need at least one API key from a supported AI provider. AI features do
nothing if no key is configured.
### Is any data sent to AI providers automatically?
No. Data is only sent when you configure an AI provider API key and manually click
an AI generation button in the post editor.
### What data is sent to AI providers?
When you click an AI generation button, Rank Bix SEO sends the post title and optionally
a plain-text excerpt of the post content to the selected provider. You can disable
sending post content in **Settings Advanced AI Keys Allow sending post content**.
When disabled, only the post title is sent.
### Can I stop the plugin from pinging search engines?
Yes. Go to **Rank Bix SEO Settings Sitemap** and uncheck **Auto-pings Google &
Bing on publish**.
### How do I add breadcrumbs to my theme?
Add this function to your theme template:
```
```
Alternatively, use the shortcode:
```
[rankbix_seo_breadcrumbs]
```
### How do I display an HTML sitemap?
Use this shortcode on any page:
```
[rankbix_seo_sitemap]
```
Optional shortcode attributes include `show_tags="0"`, `columns="3"`, and `orderby
="date"`.
### Where is the redirect debug tool?
Visit any redirected URL and append `?rankbix_seo_debug_redirect=1`. Logged-in administrators
can see redirect match details instead of being redirected.
### Can I use Rank Bix SEO only for basic SEO?
Yes. You can use only the features you need, such as meta titles, descriptions,
Open Graph, sitemap, schema, redirects, or breadcrumbs.
### Does the AI meta generator cost extra?
No. You use your own API key from OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Groq, or Cohere and pay
only your provider’s standard rate. Rank Bix SEO adds no markup and requires no
Rank Bix account to use AI features.
### Can I use multiple AI providers, or do I have to pick one?
You can add API keys for all five supported providers and switch between them at
any time. This lets you compare output quality or use a cheaper model for bulk generation
and a more capable model for individual posts.
### Does Rank Bix SEO require a Rank Bix account?
No. Every free feature works without creating an account. A licence key is required
to activate Rank Bix SEO Pro, but there is no account login step inside WordPress.
### What happens to my SEO data if I deactivate the plugin?
Your SEO data – titles, descriptions, OG images, redirect rules, schema settings–
is stored as standard WordPress post meta and options. It stays in your database
after deactivation. You can choose to delete it permanently on uninstall via **Rank
Bix SEO Settings Advanced Remove data on uninstall**.
### Does Rank Bix SEO work with Elementor, Bricks, Kadence, and other page builders?
Yes. The SEO meta box appears on any post or page regardless of which builder you
use to edit the content. Page builder output is analysed in the same way as the
standard block editor.
### What is IndexNow and should I enable it?
IndexNow lets you notify Bing and other participating search engines the moment
a page is published or updated, rather than waiting for them to crawl it on their
schedule. It is optional but recommended. Enable it in **Rank Bix SEO SEO Tools
IndexNow**.
### What is LLMs.txt and do I need it?
LLMs.txt is an emerging standard that tells AI crawlers – such as those used by
ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude – what your site is about and which pages they may
reference. If you want your content to appear in AI-generated answers, enabling
LLMs.txt in **Technical SEO** is a simple step that takes under a minute.
### Does Rank Bix SEO work on WordPress Multisite?
Basic multisite compatibility is included. Each subsite manages its own SEO settings,
sitemap, and redirects independently. Network-level management across all subsites
is on the Pro roadmap.
### Does Rank Bix SEO work with multilingual sites?
Yes. Rank Bix SEO is compatible with WPML and Polylang. Each language version of
a post or page has its own SEO title, meta description, focus keyword, and OG image.
The XML sitemap includes all language variants automatically. The plugin interface
itself is translation-ready and available in English, Hindi, Korean, and Brazilian
Portuguese, with more languages added via [translate.wordpress.org](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/rankbix-seo/).

[Lawrence](https://profiles.wordpress.org/lozmatic/) 2026年9月11日 4 replies
The team have done a great job packing a lot of features on a much smaller footprint–
it's refreshing to use a powerful SEO plugin without the bloat. I particularly like
the UI and UX as it makes me work faster. One thing that is missing is the SEO Press
importer. But the other ones are there – Yoast, Allinone and RankMath.

I have tried a few alternatives over time, but as a newbie, Rank Bix SEO has done
a lot better. Its Full Site Audit seems to be the most mature, and it is constantly
updating. Which is making the user experience much better.

## 変更履歴
#### 1.2.3
**Compatibility**
* Tested and confirmed compatible with WordPress 7.1.
**New Features**
* **Header & Footer code injector** – A new Technical module that lets you inject
custom scripts, styles, and tracking codes (Google Analytics, Tag Manager, cookie
banners, Meta Pixel, etc.) into the ``, immediately after `` open,
or before `` close on every page. Three independent CodeMirror HTML editors
with real-time syntax highlighting. The Save button disables automatically when
syntax errors are detected. PHP tags are stripped server-side so only HTML runs.
The module is zero-impact when toggled off – no frontend output, no admin menu
entry.
* **Conditional injection** – Each of the three Header & Footer code areas (head,
body, footer) now has an “Apply to” dropdown so you can target injection to All
pages, Homepage only, All singular pages, Blog posts only, or Pages only. Mix
and match per area – for example, inject Analytics globally but target a cookie
banner to all singular pages only.
* **Per-post disable** – A new checkbox in the SEO meta box Advanced tab lets you
disable all head/footer code injection on individual posts or pages. Useful for
landing pages or pages with their own tracking setup.
* **Dashboard Module Status** – Header & Footer now appears in the Module Status
card on the dashboard so you can see its on/off state at a glance alongside all
other modules.
* **Admin toolbar** – Header & Footer is now listed in the Rank Bix SEO admin toolbar
dropdown for quick one-click access from any page.
* **Hide toolbar score badge** – A new option in Settings > General > Admin Toolbar
lets you hide the coloured SEO score pill from the toolbar. Useful on PHP-template
sites where the score count may not reflect actual frontend output.
* **Toolbar score badge – smart threshold** – The SEO score badge in the admin
toolbar is now hidden automatically when the stored post content has fewer than
50 words after stripping shortcodes and HTML tags. Prevents a misleading score
from appearing on PHP-template or page-builder pages where the editor content
is minimal but the rendered frontend output is not.
* **Keyword in URL slug – skip for homepage and posts page** – The “Focus keyword
in URL slug” check is now skipped entirely when editing the static front page
or the designated blog archive page. The slug for those pages does not represent
their public URL (which is always `/`), so a failing slug check was misleading
and is no longer shown.
* **SEOPress importer** – You can now import titles, descriptions, focus keywords,
canonicals, noindex, and nofollow settings from SEOPress. Appears automatically
on the Import tab whenever SEOPress data is detected in the database.
* **Cookie Bar** – A new Technical module for GDPR-compliant cookie consent. Displays
a fully customisable banner (position, message, button text, background/text
colours, cookie duration). Integrates with Google Consent Mode v2 and Matomo.
Automatically blocks scripts injected via the Header & Footer module until the
visitor accepts. Toggling the module off disables all frontend output and removes
the admin menu entry.
#### 1.2.2
**New Features**
* **Header & Footer code injector** – A new Technical module that lets you inject
custom scripts, styles, and tracking codes (Google Analytics, Tag Manager, cookie
banners, Meta Pixel, etc.) into the ``, immediately after `` open,
or before `` close on every page. Three independent CodeMirror HTML editors
with real-time syntax highlighting. The Save button disables automatically when
syntax errors are detected. PHP tags are stripped server-side so only HTML runs.
The module is zero-impact when toggled off – no frontend output, no admin menu
entry.
#### 1.2.1
**New Features**
* **Redesigned SEO meta box** – The SEO tab has been completely rebuilt with a
modern, data-rich layout that makes it faster to optimise every post without
switching tools. The redesign is non-destructive – all saved SEO data is preserved
and works without any migration.
* **Live SEO score ring** – An animated circular score ring sits at the top of
the SEO tab showing a 0-100 score based on your keyword analysis results. The
ring fills with a colour-coded stroke (green 70+, amber 40-69, red below 40)
and updates live after every analysis run. A “Great / Good / Needs work” label
appears beneath the number.
* **Keyword density chip** – As you type your focus keyword, a real-time KD badge
appears showing the keyword density as a percentage of total post content. Green
for the ideal 0.5-2.5% range, amber outside it.
* **Keyword-in-field indicators** – Green “Keyword found” or red “Keyword missing”
badges appear next to the SEO Title and Meta Description labels and update live
as you type in any of the three fields – no need to run a full analysis to see
whether your keyword is present.
* **Visual length bars** – SEO Title and Meta Description each show a colour-coded
progress bar beneath the input reflecting the current character count relative
to the recommended range (green = good, amber = short, red = over).
* **Content stats strip** – Word count, estimated reading time (200 wpm), and internal/
external link counts are calculated from the post content and displayed in the
keyword header on every page load. Word count is a feature many competing plugins
lock behind premium plans.
* **Search Preview open by default with device toggle** – The SERP preview now
expands automatically when the meta box loads. A Desktop/Mobile toggle in the
header lets you switch between a full desktop result and a mobile card view without
leaving the tab.
* **Featured image in SERP preview** – The desktop and mobile SERP preview cards
now show a thumbnail of the post’s featured image (or OG image if set) on the
right side of the result snippet, matching how Google displays image-rich results.
* **SEO Title column** – The posts list now shows the full SEO title (up to 60
characters) giving you a clear at-a-glance view of your optimised title without
opening each post.
* **SEO Desc column** – The posts list now shows the meta description (up to 160
characters), letting you review your full description content at a glance across
all posts.
**Bug Fixes**
* **Social preview cards showing “No image selected” despite featured image set**–
On block editor (Gutenberg) pages, the social preview cards incorrectly showed
the placeholder text on page load even when a featured image was set. The JS
initialisation ran at 50ms before Gutenberg’s media store cached the attachment,
found no image, and overwrote the PHP-rendered card. Fixed by reading the image
URL from the PHP-rendered preview element (which already has the correct URL
resolved server-side) rather than racing the async media store.
* **OG image Remove button not clearing SERP thumbnail** – Clicking Remove on the
OG image left a stale URL in the preview image element, which caused the old
image to reappear when the social cards next updated. The Remove handler now
clears the `src` attribute before calling the image update routine.
**Improvements**
* **SEO Title optimal range updated to 50-60 characters** – The recommended title
length has been tightened from 40-70 to 50-60 characters, matching Google’s desktop
truncation point (~580-600 px). The progress bar, character counter, score check,
bulk editor, and all JS now reflect the new range consistently.
* **Post and Page are always enabled for SEO Meta Box** – Post and Page post types
are permanently enabled in Settings and cannot be disabled, removing a common
source of misconfiguration. All other post types remain optional.
* **Default post types changed to Post and Page** – Fresh installs and fallback
behaviour now default to Post and Page only, rather than all public post types
on the site.
* **Focus Keyword column removed from posts list** – The Focus Keyword column has
been removed from the posts/pages list table to reduce clutter. The keyword is
still used internally for all score and analysis calculations.
* **TOC theming via CSS custom properties** – The Table of Contents block now uses
CSS custom properties (`--toc-max-width`, `--toc-title-size`, `--toc-item-size`)
for its layout and sizing, making site-level theme overrides simpler without
needing to target deeply nested selectors.
#### 1.2.0
**New: Complete UI Redesign with Sidebar Navigation**
* **New sidebar navigation** – All plugin screens now share a persistent left-hand
sidebar, giving you one-click access to Dashboard, Settings, Image SEO, Redirections,
404 Monitor, Schema Templates, Rank Tracker, and all other modules from any page
* **Dashboard SEO Scores widget** – A new SEO Scores card on the dashboard shows
a Good / OK / Poor breakdown of your published content, with a post-type switcher(
Posts, Pages, and any custom post types) and direct View links that open the
post list pre-filtered by score band
* **Settings tabs reorganised** – Image SEO moved from the Advanced tab to General(
where always-on core features live); AI Meta Generator API keys and model preferences
moved from Advanced to Tools; 404 Monitor removed from Settings entirely (free)—
access it directly via the sidebar link
* **Image SEO template fix** – The %filename% variable now correctly resolves the
original upload filename on newly uploaded images (previously fell back to the
post title due to a WordPress hook timing issue where `_wp_attached_file` meta
is written after `add_attachment` fires)
#### 1.1.15
* Added: Sitemap post-type exclusions – choose which post types to include or exclude
from your XML sitemap
* Added: Split archive noindex controls – separately control noindex for author
archives, date archives, and media attachment pages
* Added: Organization / Person Knowledge Graph schema – output JSON-LD on your
homepage to power Google Knowledge Panels
* Added: Global robots snippet controls – set max-snippet, max-image-preview, and
max-video-preview directives site-wide
* Added: Facebook App ID and Twitter/X site handle settings for Open Graph and
Twitter Cards
* Fixed: Duplicate redirect entries when the same source URL is saved more than
once
* Fixed: Auto-created redirects causing double-prefix URLs on subdirectory installs
* Fixed: Bulk delete on Redirections page returning “No IDs provided” error
* Fixed: 404 Monitor prune lock now set before the COUNT query to prevent excessive
database queries
* Fixed: Pagination offset computed before page clamp, causing empty results on
out-of-range page numbers
#### 1.1.14
**New Features**
* **Breadcrumbs module – complete rewrite** – The breadcrumb trail builder has
been rebuilt from the ground up as a shared static method (`build_trail()`) used
by both the visual renderer and JSON-LD schema output, ensuring they never drift
out of sync. The trail now handles WooCommerce products (shop page + deepest
product category ancestors), standard blog posts (blog archive page + category
ancestors), hierarchical pages (all page ancestors), custom post types (archive
link + first hierarchical taxonomy path), taxonomy archives (term ancestors for
nested categories/tags), date archives (year, month, day with linked parent levels),
search results, 404 pages, and author archives. All breadcrumb links include `
aria-current="page"` on the final item for accessibility and Google compliance.
* **Breadcrumbs – dedicated Settings tab** – A new Breadcrumbs tab appears in Settings
when the module is active. It is automatically hidden when the module is disabled
and the settings page redirects to General. The tab provides Display Settings(
separator field with quick-pick buttons for common characters, home label, prefix
text, include archive page toggle) and a Usage card with the PHP function and
shortcode reference.
**Improvements**
* **Settings – Robots & Indexing tab reordered** – The robots.txt editor and LLMs.
txt cards now appear at the top of the tab, with the noindex settings card below.
Files that are actively served take visual priority over indexing directives.
* **Features page – Configure links** – All modules on the Features page now show
a Configure link pointing directly to their relevant settings section: Breadcrumbs
to `#breadcrumbs`, IndexNow to `#tools`, LLMs.txt to `#robots`, Robots to `#robots`.
Modules with no dedicated settings section show an Active badge only.
* **Tools tab – IndexNow key file link** – The “Key file served at: /hash.txt”
label has been replaced with “Key file: View key file” to avoid repeating the
key hash that is already shown above.
* **Bulk Editor – private posts excluded** – Private posts and non-navigable post
types (Elementor templates, JetEngine templates, etc.) are now excluded from
all Bulk Editor queries, the post count, the status dropdown, and the Average
SEO Score calculation.
* **Breadcrumb CSS – CSS custom properties** – Frontend styles now use CSS custom
properties (`--rbs-bc-link`, `--rbs-bc-current`, `--rbs-bc-sep-color`, `--rbs-
bc-size`) with defaults, making Pro style overrides possible without modifying
the stylesheet. Font size unified to 16px (14px on mobile). Elementor kit override
compatibility added via `!important` on color and font-size declarations.
* **Meta title – archive pages** – Post type archives, date archives (year/month/
day), and author archives now generate proper titles. Previously post type archive
pages fell through to the `else` branch returning only the site name.
* **Meta title – template variable resolution** – `%post_title%` in a taxonomy
title template now resolves to the term title instead of showing literally when
called without a post object. All remaining unresolved `%variable%` placeholders
are automatically stripped after replacement so they never appear in the browser
tab.
* **Meta description – archive and search pages** – Meta descriptions are now generated
for post type archives (using the post type description), author archives (using
the author bio), and search result pages (a “Search results for: query” string).
Previously these pages output no description at all.
**Bug Fixes**
* **Error with Yoast SEO** – `RankBixSEO_TOC::add_heading_ids()` and `maybe_auto_insert()`
declared a strict `string` type on the `$content` parameter. Yoast SEO calls `
get_the_excerpt()` internally which triggers the `the_content` filter with `null`,
causing a fatal TypeError. Both methods now accept `?string` (nullable) and return
early safely.
* **Title template `%post_title%` not replaced on archives** – When a taxonomy
title template was saved containing `%post_title%`, it was passed through `resolve_template()`
with a null post object, leaving the placeholder literal in the browser title.
* **Post type archives showing only site name** – `get_title()` had no `is_post_type_archive()`
branch, so post type archive pages returned only `get_bloginfo('name')` instead
of the archive title.
* **Dashboard widget – false homepage title alert on static front page** – The “
Homepage SEO title is not set” alert in the dashboard widget checked only the
global `rankbix_seo_home_title` option. When WordPress is configured to use a
static page as the front page, the SEO title lives in the page’s own post meta(`
_rankbix_seo_title`), not the global option. The widget now checks post meta
for static front pages, suppressing the alert when the title is set on the page
itself. The alert link also now points directly to the page editor rather than
General settings.
#### 1.1.13
**New Features**
* **Elementor SEO panel** – A dedicated SEO tab now appears in the Elementor editor
sidebar alongside the Elements and Globals tabs. The panel includes a live Google
SERP preview card (showing the post’s OG image or featured image thumbnail, URL
breadcrumb, title, and description – all updating in real time as you type),
an SEO Title field, a Meta Description field, a Focus Keyword field, and an Advanced
tab with Canonical URL, Robots directives (noindex, nofollow, noarchive, nosnippet),
and a Cornerstone Content flag. All fields save automatically when you click
Elementor’s own Update button – no separate save action needed. The panel is
hidden for Elementor template post types (elementor_library, landing pages, floating
buttons) where per-post SEO data is not applicable. If an AI provider key is
configured in Settings, a Generate button appears next to the SEO Title and Meta
Description fields to produce AI-written copy using the post title, content,
and focus keyword.
* **Bulk Editor – AI generation** – A “Generate SEO for selected” button appears
in the Bulk Editor toolbar when one or more rows are checked. Clicking it processes
each selected row in sequence, filling any empty SEO Title, Meta Description,
and Focus Keyword fields. If an AI provider key is configured it generates copy
using the post title and cleaned page content; otherwise it derives values from
the post title and first paragraph. Existing field values are never overwritten.
Each processed row pulses blue while in progress, turns green when filled by
AI, or yellow when filled from page content, so progress is visible throughout.
**Improvements**
* **Character count colour logic** – The character progress bar and counter on
SEO Title (optimal 30-60 chars) and Meta Description (optimal 120-160 chars)
fields now use three distinct states: yellow when the text is too short to be
effective, green when it is within the recommended range, and red when it exceeds
the limit. Previously the bar turned green as soon as any character was entered,
making it impossible to tell whether the length was actually useful.
* **Homepage SEO – static front page notice** – When WordPress is configured to
use a static page as the front page (Settings > Reading), the Homepage SEO section
in the plugin’s General settings now displays a notice explaining that the page’s
SEO fields should be edited directly on that page, with a button to open it for
editing. Only the Title Separator field remains visible in this state, as it
applies site-wide rather than to the front page specifically.
* **Bulk Editor – per-page 30-row option** – The rows-per-page selector now includes
a 30-row option alongside the existing 20, 50, 100, and 200 options. The default
is 20 rows per page.
* **AI content cleaning** – Shortcodes and excess whitespace are stripped from
post content before it is sent to an AI provider or used for content-based fallback
generation. This prevents raw shortcode tags such as `[pfc id="62"]` from appearing
in generated copy.
* **WordPress core sitemap suppressed** – When the Rank Bix SEO sitemap module
is active, WordPress’s built-in sitemap (`/wp-sitemap.xml`) is now automatically
disabled. Having two sitemaps active at once causes duplicate URLs and confuses
search engine crawlers. If the sitemap module is turned off, the WordPress default
comes back as normal.
**Bug Fixes**
* **Noindex checkbox out of sync between tabs** – The meta box has a “Noindex this
page” checkbox on the SEO tab and a separate noindex checkbox in the Robots grid
on the Advanced tab. Both write to the same meta key but were independent in
the UI – unchecking one while the other (on a hidden tab) remained checked meant
the meta was saved as noindex even though the user had explicitly unchecked it.
Both checkboxes now sync instantly when either is changed.
#### 1.1.12
**Bug Fixes**
* **Duplicate Page – page builder CSS regeneration** – When duplicating a page
built with Elementor, Beaver Builder, Bricks, Oxygen, or Divi, the builder’s
cached CSS (tied to the original post ID) was copied to the duplicate. The builder
then skipped regeneration and served stale or mismatched styles on the new post.
The CSS cache meta keys (`_elementor_css`, `_fl_builder_cache_ver`, `_bricks_page_styles`,`
ct_css_style`, `_et_pb_css`) are now excluded from the duplicate copy, forcing
each builder to generate clean, post-ID-correct CSS on first open.
