- Social Cards — Per-platform title, description, and image overrides for Google Search Snippets, Open Graph (Facebook, LinkedIn), and Twitter/X Cards. Inline live previews with character counters (Google 60/160, OG 55/65, Twitter 70/200). Global fallback image with kebab menu.
- LLMs — Auto-generate

FAQ
-
Does this plugin replace Yoast SEO or Rank Math?
-
Gregius Optimizer focuses on the Gutenberg-native editing experience for metadata that those plugins often bury in separate metaboxes. It can complement or replace them depending on your workflow.
-
Which post types are supported?
-
All public post types that support
custom-fields. Meta fields, schema subtype, and LLMs toggle register on every public post type automatically. -
Can I disable specific output groups?
-
Yes. Each output group (meta description, canonical, Open Graph, Twitter Cards, LLMs) has a corresponding
gg_optimizer_meta_output_*orgg_optimizer_llms_enabledfilter. -
Does the plugin add a database table?
-
Yes. Settings for sitemap, robots.txt, schema defaults, and LLMs context are stored in
{$prefix}gg_optimizer_settings. The table is created on activation and removed on uninstall. -
Is there a translation file?
-
The text domain is
gregius-optimizer. A.potfile is not bundled; translations are handled via the standard WordPress translation system.
