Description
Obohito SEO Fields is a lightweight plugin for adding basic SEO metadata to standard WordPress posts and pages.
It provides:
- An editable SEO title that can be used as the document title.
- An editable meta description.
- An optional meta keywords field.
- Automatic fallback values from the post title, content, and post tags.
- WordPress nonce and capability checks when saving metadata.
- Sanitized input and escaped output.
- No analytics, tracking, telemetry, advertisements, or external services.
- No remote code execution or remotely loaded scripts or styles.
- No public-site credit links.
- Cleanup of the plugin’s own metadata when the plugin is uninstalled.
The plugin stores its values as WordPress post metadata and outputs the description and optional keywords on singular standard posts and pages.
If a supported SEO plugin is detected (Yoast SEO, Rank Math, or All in One SEO), Obohito SEO Fields does not change the document title or output its own front-end SEO meta tags. It does not modify or integrate with those plugins.
Obohito SEO Fields does not guarantee search-engine rankings or indexing. Search engines decide how they use metadata and how pages are ranked.
Privacy
Obohito SEO Fields does not collect, transmit, or store personal data for analytics or tracking. It does not contact external servers.
The plugin stores the SEO values entered by users with permission to edit the relevant post or page in WordPress post metadata.
Security
Metadata is saved only after a valid WordPress nonce and the current user’s edit_post capability are verified. Autosaves and revisions are ignored. Input is sanitized before storage and output is escaped before being sent to the browser.
Compatibility
The plugin uses WordPress core APIs and does not bundle third-party JavaScript libraries or external services.
When supported SEO plugins are detected, Obohito SEO Fields avoids changing the document title or outputting its own front-end SEO meta tags to reduce duplicate metadata.

FAQ
-
Does the plugin work with posts and pages?
-
Yes. The plugin adds its fields to standard WordPress posts and pages.
-
Does the plugin require an external SEO service?
-
No. Obohito SEO Fields does not communicate with external services.
-
Does the plugin collect or track visitor data?
-
No. It does not collect analytics, tracking data, visitor information, or telemetry.
-
Where is the SEO data stored?
-
The values are stored as post metadata in the WordPress database.
-
What happens if I leave a field empty?
-
The plugin uses the post title as the SEO title fallback and generates a basic meta description from the post content. If no SEO keywords are saved, the editor shows the post’s tag names when available; no keywords meta tag is output unless a value is saved.
-
Does the plugin guarantee higher search rankings?
-
No. The plugin only provides editable metadata fields. Search engines decide how they use metadata and how pages are ranked.
-
What are meta keywords?
-
Meta keywords are an optional legacy HTML metadata field. Many modern search engines may ignore it. The plugin includes it for site owners who need the field for specific workflows.
-
Can I use this with another SEO plugin?
-
Yes, but you should normally use one plugin to manage front-end SEO metadata. When Yoast SEO, Rank Math, or All in One SEO is detected, Obohito SEO Fields does not change the document title or output its own front-end SEO meta tags. It does not modify those plugins.
-
Does the plugin include advertisements or tracking?
-
No.
-
Does the plugin load scripts, styles, or code from external websites?
-
No.
-
What happens when I uninstall the plugin?
-
The plugin removes the SEO metadata it created. Your posts, pages, content, and other WordPress data are not removed.
-
Does the plugin provide legal or regulatory compliance?
-
No. The plugin provides SEO metadata fields only and does not claim to make a website legally or regulatorily compliant.
