The plugin reads Elementor's widget data directly from post meta (_elementor_data), extracting text from all widget types including text editors, headings, tabs, accordions, testimonials, and more.

    86 * **WordPress Gutenberg (Block Editor)** - Full support. Block content is properly parsed using WordPress core functions (excerpt_remove_blocks) and the Gutenberg data API.
    87 * **WordPress Classic Editor** - Full support. Works with TinyMCE visual mode and plain text mode.

    228 * **Compliance**: Settings link is now translatable and uses `esc_url()` / `esc_html__()`

    82 Greek Multi Tool provides deep, tested compatibility with all major page builders. Every feature of the plugin - text analysis, excerpt generation, uppercase accent removal, search, and permalink conversion - works correctly regardless of which page builder you use:
    83 
    84 * **WP Bakery Page Builder (Visual Composer)** - Full support. The plugin extracts text content from all WP Bakery elements (vc_column_text, vc_row, custom text blocks, etc.) both client-side and server-side.

The uppercase accent remover also works on WP Bakery's dynamically rendered frontend content.
    85 * **Elementor** - Full support. The plugin reads Elementor's widget data directly from post meta (_elementor_data), extracting text from all widget types including text editors, headings, tabs, accordions, testimonials, and more. Accent removal works on Elementor's frontend-rendered elements via MutationObserver.
    86 * **WordPress Gutenberg (Block Editor)** - Full support. Block content is properly parsed using WordPress core functions (excerpt_remove_blocks) and the Gutenberg data API.
    87 * **WordPress Classic Editor** - Full support. Works with TinyMCE visual mode and plain text mode.
    88 * **Divi Builder** - Compatible. Divi shortcodes (et_*) are properly stripped for content extraction.

    90 * **Avada / Fusion Builder** - Compatible. Fusion shortcodes (fusion_*) are properly handled.

When your content uses page builder shortcodes (WP Bakery, Divi, etc.), Yoast may not be able to analyze the raw shortcode content properly. Greek Multi Tool intercepts Yoast's content analysis and provides the fully rendered, clean text for accurate SEO analysis of your Greek content.
    168 
    169 = What PHP version do I need? =
