## Description

**SEO AI for WooCommerce** (Bulk SEO for Categories & Products) helps WooCommerce
store owners solve two key problems:

 1. Empty or generic category/product pages with weak SEO value.
 2. Manual content work that does not scale across 100+ catalog pages.

The plugin gives you an AI-first workflow in PRO: connect API -> test key -> count-
> preview -> run -> rollback.
 You can generate unique SEO descriptions in batches,
review quality reasons before saving, and keep frontend UX clean with collapsible
text blocks.

### Core idea

 * **Free:** solid text collapse + optional default fallback template for empty 
   category descriptions.
 * **PRO:** data-driven AI generation for categories and products with quality guard,
   preview, cost estimate, and batch safety.

#### Free Features

 * Automatic text collapse for long category descriptions.
 * Optional text collapse for product full description.
 * Optional text collapse for product short description.
 * Separate line limits for desktop and mobile.
 * “Read More / Hide” text customization.
 * Button presets and alignment settings.
 * Fade gradient support (basic and advanced height/color).
 * Button style presets, custom colors, icons, and padding.
 * Truncation by lines, characters, or words (HTML-safe).
 * Collapse on additional taxonomies and public post types.
 * Collapse animation duration and easing.
 * Optional fallback template for empty category descriptions with dynamic variables.
 * Works with Elementor and AJAX-based themes (including WoodMart-like flows).

#### PRO Features

Upgrade to **SmartCategorySEO PRO** for AI automation and scaling:

 * AI generation for:
    - WooCommerce categories
    - product full descriptions
    - product short descriptions (excerpts)
 * Data-driven prompts using catalog signals (brands, prices, attributes).
 * Quality Guard v2:
    - length checks
    - bad-fragment checks
    - duplicate-risk detection inside batch
    - structured reason/detail statuses
 * AI Batch Preview:
    - old/new values
    - char counts
    - status + fallback reason per row
 * Cost and safety controls:
    - model-based cost estimate before run
    - batch run limit
    - auto-stop on consecutive errors
 * Changed categories mode (update only categories affected by catalog changes).
 * One-click rollback for the last bulk run.
 * Template fallback when AI result is rejected by quality checks.
 * License activation + private update delivery.

### Quick Start (PRO)

 4. Review preview table (old/new, status, fallback reason).
 5. Run batch and rollback if needed.

## FAQ

### Does this plugin require WooCommerce?

Yes. It is built for WooCommerce category and product contexts.

### Is hidden/collapsed text safe for SEO?

Yes. The text remains in page HTML and is indexable. Collapse is for UX/readability,
not cloaking.

### Does it work with AJAX themes like WoodMart?

Yes. The plugin includes compatibility logic for dynamic content updates and AJAX/
PJAX-like category transitions.

### Can I generate SEO text in bulk with AI?

Yes, in PRO. Recommended path: connect API -> test key -> count -> preview -> run.
Rollback is available for the last batch.

### How much does AI generation cost?

Cost depends on your model and item count. PRO shows an estimate before launch (
based on per-model pricing).

### Can I update only changed categories?

Yes, in PRO. There is a dedicated mode for categories changed since the last AI 
generation date.
