## Description

Maisy SEO Metadata Generator finds published posts and pages with incomplete metadata
for Yoast SEO and uses the OpenAI Responses API to regenerate three fields as one
consistent set:

 * SEO title
 * Meta description
 * Focus keyphrase

The plugin skips an item only when all three fields already exist. If any field 
is missing, it regenerates and replaces all three so the title, description, and
keyphrase stay aligned.

The dashboard shows separate incomplete counts for posts and pages. Load and run
the next 10, 20, or 50 items, or select specific content from Posts > All Posts 
or Pages > All Pages and choose Add AI SEO Meta. The persistent queue continues 
after the browser closes.

A compact metadata index powers the counts, filters, and sortable SEO Meta column
without repeatedly scanning the full WordPress post-meta table. The index builds
in small background chunks and stays synchronized as metadata changes.

Queue protections include automatic retries, stale-job recovery, a worker watchdog
that runs only while work is active, status filtering, pagination, exact result 
messages, and a clear warning when no OpenAI API key is installed.

Administrators can stop processing and clear all active queue records without removing
metadata already generated or deleting completed history.

### External services

This plugin connects to the OpenAI API only after an administrator configures an
API key and starts a batch. It sends the post or page title, permalink, and up to
18,000 characters of plain-text content to generate metadata. The service is provided
by OpenAI and may require paid API credits.

OpenAI terms: https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use/

OpenAI privacy policy: https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy/

Nothing is sent to OpenAI merely by installing or activating the plugin.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate Yoast SEO.
 2. Upload and activate Maisy SEO Metadata Generator.
 3. Open Tools > Maisy SEO Metadata Generator.
 4. Add an OpenAI API key and save settings.
 5. Choose Posts or Pages, then load and run the next 10, 20, or 50 incomplete items.
 6. Monitor progress on the plugin dashboard. Processing starts automatically.

For specific items, select them under Posts > All Posts or Pages > All Pages and
apply Add AI SEO Meta.

You may define `ABSEM_OPENAI_API_KEY` in wp-config.php instead of storing a key 
in WordPress:

    ```
    define( 'ABSEM_OPENAI_API_KEY', 'your-key-here' );
    ```

## FAQ

### Does it overwrite existing metadata?

If all three supported fields exist, the item is skipped. If any field is missing,
the plugin regenerates and replaces all three as a consistent set.

### Is Yoast SEO Premium required?

No. The free version is supported.

### Does processing continue after I close the browser?

Yes. The database-backed queue runs through WP-Cron. Sites with WP-Cron disabled
should configure a real server cron to call wp-cron.php.

### What happens if a request fails?

The plugin retries the request up to three times. Permanent failures remain visible
on the dashboard and can be retried manually. Stale processing jobs are recovered
automatically.

### Can I stop a running queue?

Yes. Use Stop and clear active queue on the plugin dashboard. It removes queued 
and processing jobs while preserving generated metadata and completed history. If
an OpenAI request is already in flight, its response is discarded before metadata
is written.

### Does a ChatGPT subscription include API usage?

No. OpenAI API billing is separate from ChatGPT subscriptions.
