Built for teams that use **Yoast SEO** or **All in One SEO** and need one place to audit SEO fields across posts, pages, and public custom post types. A plugin by [4wp.dev](https://4wp.dev/). #### Perfect for * **SEO audits** — filter by missing title, meta description, or focus keyword * **Content ops** — drag rows into P1–P3 lanes (business priority, not SEO score) * **Bulk workflows** — quick edit SEO fields from the inventory table * **External sync** — REST API for Google Sheets or custom dashboards * **Multilingual sites** — Polylang, WPML, or single-language #### How it works 1. Activate the plugin (Yoast or All in One SEO recommended for read/write). 2. Open **4WP SEO SEO Inventory**. 3. Review completeness scores and missing SEO fields site-wide. 4. Drag rows into **P1 / P2 / P3** to mark business priority. 5. Optional: enable the REST API under **Settings** and connect Sheets or your dashboard. Priority reflects **business importance** (e.g. main service pages), not SEO score— a page can stay in P1 at 100% completeness. #### Modules **SEO Inventory**, **Inventory REST API**, and **Google Search Console** (OAuth, property picker, URL inspection, search analytics) are available in wp-admin. TechArticle schema, LLMS.txt, and cross posting appear as **Coming soon** until a future release. ### External services This plugin optionally connects to **Google APIs** when a site administrator enables** Google Search Console** integration under **4WP SEO Settings**. **Google OAuth 2.0** (`accounts.google.com`, `oauth2.googleapis.com`) Used so an administrator can connect their Google account to WordPress. When the admin clicks **Connect Google**, the plugin redirects to Google sign-in and exchanges an authorization code for access and refresh tokens. Tokens are stored in the WordPress database and used only for Search Console features initiated in wp-admin. **Google Search Console API** (`searchconsole.googleapis.com`) Used to list verified properties, inspect URLs, and fetch Search Analytics for the connected property. The plugin sends the selected property URL, requested page URLs, and date ranges when an administrator runs sync, URL inspection, or live analytics tools in wp-admin. Synced metrics are stored locally in WordPress for reporting screens. No Google API calls are made until an administrator configures OAuth credentials and connects an account. The plugin does not send site visitor or front-end user data to Google. * [Google Terms of Service](https://policies.google.com/terms) * [Google Privacy Policy](https://policies.google.com/privacy) * [Google API Services User Data Policy](https://developers.google.com/terms/api-services-user-data-policy) ## Blocks This plugin provides 2 blocks. * TechArticle Steps * TechArticle Step ## Installation 1. Upload the plugin folder to `wp-content/plugins/` or install through **Plugins Add New**. 2. Activate **4WP SEO Helper** through the Plugins screen. 3. Install and activate **Yoast SEO** or **All in One SEO** for full inventory read/ write. 4. Open **4WP SEO SEO Inventory** to start auditing. On activation, the inventory API token is created and the module is enabled by default. ## FAQ ### Do I need Yoast SEO or All in One SEO? **Recommended.** The inventory reads and writes SEO meta through adapter plugins. Without Yoast or AIOSEO, the table still loads but bulk updates and meta writes are limited. ### What is P1 / P2 / P3 priority? Three configurable business tiers in the inventory table. **Priority is not SEO score**—you might keep a fully complete page in P1 because it is a key landing page. ### Can I export the inventory? Yes. Use **Export CSV** on the SEO Inventory screen to download titles, meta fields, completeness, priority, and missing-field flags. ### Is there a REST API? Yes. Base URL: `/wp-json/forwp-seo-helper/v1/seo-inventory` Routes include `GET /meta`, `GET /items`, and `PUT /priority-queue`. Authenticate with a Bearer token from **4WP SEO Inventory API** (Settings tab), or as a logged- in administrator with `manage_options`. ### Does it work with Polylang or WPML? Yes. Language filters and per-language rows are supported when a multilingual plugin is active. ### Which post types are included? Public post types with `show_ui` are discovered automatically. Exclude types with the `forwp_seo_inventory_exclude_post_types` filter. ### What modules are coming soon? TechArticle schema and blocks, LLMS.txt, and cross posting are in the codebase but hidden behind **Coming soon** badges until a future release. ### How do I connect Google Search Console? Open **4WP SEO Search Console**. Add OAuth Client ID and Secret from Google Cloud Console, use the redirect URI shown on that screen, then connect and select your property. ### Does it depend on other 4WP plugins? No. **4WP SEO Helper** runs on its own. The REST API can integrate with external tools such as Google Sheets or the 4WP Analytics Dashboard. ### Is this plugin affiliated with Yoast or WordPress? No. Yoast SEO and All in One SEO are separate products. **4WP** is our project brand name—**WP** appears only as part of that name and is not a reference to WordPress. This plugin is not affiliated with, endorsed, or sponsored by WordPress. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “4WP SEO Helper” is open source software.
