Publish SEO-optimized articles from SEO Rocket with automatic Yoast SEO and Rank Math metadata sync.

== Description ==

SEO Rocket Integration enables seamless publishing of AI-generated, SEO-optimized articles from [SEO Rocket](https://www.seorocket.app) directly to your WordPress site.

= Key Features =

* **REST API Integration** - Extends WordPress REST API to support SEO metadata fields
* **Yoast SEO Support** - Automatically sets focus keywords and meta descriptions for Yoast SEO
* **Rank Math Support** - Full compatibility with Rank Math SEO plugin
* **Automatic Indexables Rebuild** - Ensures Yoast SEO score indicators update correctly
* **SEO Plugin Detection** - API endpoint to detect which SEO plugin is active

= How It Works =

1. Install and activate this plugin on your WordPress site
2. Connect your WordPress site to SEO Rocket using Application Passwords
3. Publish articles from SEO Rocket with one click
4. SEO metadata (focus keywords, meta descriptions) sync automatically

= REST API Endpoints =

**Detect SEO Plugin**
`GET /wp-json/seo-rocket/v1/detect-plugin`

Returns information about which SEO plugin is active on the site.

= Requirements =

* WordPress 5.9 or higher
* PHP 7.4 or higher
* Yoast SEO or Rank Math (recommended, but not required)

= Privacy =

This plugin does not collect any user data. It only provides REST API endpoints for publishing content from SEO Rocket.

== Installation ==

= Automatic Installation =

1. Go to Plugins > Add New in your WordPress admin
2. Search for "SEO Rocket Integration"
3. Click "Install Now" and then "Activate"

= Manual Installation =

1. Download the plugin zip file
2. Go to Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin
3. Upload the zip file and click "Install Now"
4. Activate the plugin

= Configuration =

No configuration required. The plugin automatically detects your SEO plugin (Yoast SEO or Rank Math) and enables the appropriate REST API fields.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Do I need Yoast SEO or Rank Math installed? =

No, the plugin works without any SEO plugin installed. However, SEO metadata (focus keywords, meta descriptions) will only be set if you have Yoast SEO or Rank Math active.

= How do I connect SEO Rocket to my WordPress site? =

1. Generate an Application Password in WordPress (Users > Your Profile > Application Passwords)
2. Add your WordPress site URL and Application Password in SEO Rocket's integrations settings
3. Test the connection to verify everything works

= Why aren't Yoast SEO scores showing for published articles? =

This plugin includes automatic indexables rebuilding for Yoast SEO. If scores still don't appear, try:
1. Edit the post in WordPress and click Update (this forces Yoast to recalculate)
2. Check that WP_DEBUG is disabled in production

= Is this plugin compatible with other SEO plugins? =

Currently, the plugin supports Yoast SEO and Rank Math. Support for additional SEO plugins may be added in future versions.

= Does this plugin slow down my site? =

No. The plugin only adds lightweight REST API endpoints and hooks. It has no impact on frontend performance.
