## Description

This is a lightweight plugin that connects your WordPress site to your [Grandranker](https://grandranker.com)
account. Articles created in Grandranker are pulled into WordPress as posts, and
structured-data schema is automatically added to every synced post.

#### What is Grandranker?

Grandranker is an AI-powered SEO platform that generates content tailored to your
business and tracks how that content performs in both classic and AI-driven search.
Common use cases:

 * **SEO Articles** — AI-written long-form blog posts targeting the keywords you
   choose.
 * **Local SEO** — Location-targeted articles based on your city, region, and service
   areas. Built for service businesses (clinics, agencies, contractors) that want
   to rank in a specific city or neighborhood.
 * **E-commerce Content** — Product- and category-focused articles for online stores.
   Works alongside the dedicated Shopify and PrestaShop integrations.
 * **Multi-language** — Generate articles in the language your audience actually
   searches in.
 * **Keyword Research & Content Planner** — Find the topics worth writing about 
   and queue them up.
 * **AI Search Visibility** — Track how your brand appears in ChatGPT, Perplexity,
   Google AI Overviews, Gemini, and Claude.
 * **Rank Tracking & GEO Audit** — Monitor classic SERP positions and run a Generative
   Engine Optimization audit on your site.

This plugin handles the WordPress side of that workflow: syncing the articles Grandranker
generates into your site as posts, with schema markup ready for search engines.

#### Plugin Features

 * **Easy Setup** — Generate a token in Grandranker, paste it into WordPress, you’re
   connected.
 * **Automatic Sync** — Articles sync every hour, or on demand with a single click.
 * **Rich Schema Types** — Article and BlogPosting schemas are added by default,
   with FAQPage, HowTo, and Product schemas generated automatically when the article
   includes FAQs, step-by-step instructions, or product reviews. All injected into
   the page head as JSON-LD.
 * **SEO Integration** — Works with Yoast SEO and Rank Math (meta title and description).
 * **Featured Images** — Hero images are downloaded into your media library and 
   set as featured images.
 * **Video Embeds** — YouTube, Vimeo, Loom, and Wistia embeds are preserved in your
   content.
 * **Lightweight** — No database tables, no bloat, minimal footprint.

#### How It Works

 1. In your Grandranker dashboard, go to **Integrations  WordPress Plugin** and click**
    Generate Token**.
 2. Install and activate this plugin in WordPress.
 3. Go to **Grandranker  Settings** in WordPress, paste your token, and pick your domain.
 4. Click **Sync All**, or turn on auto-sync to keep your site updated automatically.

#### Requirements

 * WordPress 6.0 or higher
 * PHP 7.4 or higher
 * A [Grandranker](https://grandranker.com) account

#### Privacy

This plugin communicates with Grandranker (app.grandranker.com by default) to receive
article content and schema for publishing. No data from your WordPress site is sent
back — the plugin only makes authenticated read requests for articles in the domain
you select.

### Third-Party Service

This plugin connects to the **Grandranker API** to retrieve articles and schema 
markup. Data is sent to and received from Grandranker servers when you:

 * Test your API connection
 * Fetch your list of domains
 * Sync articles (manually or via the hourly auto-sync)
 * Generate JSON-LD schema for articles

The API endpoint is configured in plugin settings (default: `https://app.grandranker.
com`). Your API token is sent as a Bearer token in the Authorization header with
each request.

## Installation

 1. Install the plugin from the WordPress plugin directory, or upload the `grandranker`
    folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to **Grandranker  Settings** and paste your API token from the Grandranker dashboard.
 4. Click **Test Connection**, select your domain, and save.
 5. Go to **Grandranker  Articles** to sync your content.

## FAQ

### Do I need a Grandranker account?

Yes. The plugin pulls existing articles from your Grandranker account — it does 
not generate articles on its own.

### Where do I generate the token?

In your Grandranker dashboard: **Integrations  WordPress Plugin  Generate Token**.
The token is pre-scoped to your selected domain, so you only need to paste it into
the plugin.

### Does this plugin work with Yoast SEO and Rank Math?

Yes — meta title and meta description are written to both. All in One SEO and SEOPress
are not currently supported.

### Will the plugin overwrite my edits?

If an article changes in Grandranker between syncs, the next sync overwrites the
title, content, meta fields, and category in WordPress. Post status (e.g. moving
from Draft to Publish) is not changed on update.

### What happens when I delete an article in Grandranker?

The next sync moves the matching WordPress post to the trash. Trashed posts can 
be restored normally — the plugin never permanently deletes them.

### Will uninstalling delete my synced posts?

No. Only the plugin’s settings are removed. Your synced posts, images, and schema
stay in place.
