OGEEAT

Changelog

2.2.1

• Fix: GEO score Organization check always showed “not set” even when Organization was properly configured. Internal key mismatch prevented detection. Score and schema were unrelated — the Organization schema was generated correctly on the front-end.

2.2.0

• New: Reviewed By — YMYL expert validation. Add a reviewer to any post (select from any WP user with an E-E-A-T profile). Adds schema.org reviewedBy markup and displays “Reviewed by X, Job Title” under the Author Box. Strong credibility signal for medical, financial and legal content.
• New: References APA (opt-in) — mark outbound links with the CSS class ogeeat-cite or use the [ogeeat_cite] shortcode to auto-format an APA-style references block. Zero auto-modification of content, strict opt-in.
• New: Trust Signals — site-wide detection of About page, Contact page and HTTPS. Dashboard widget with actionable links (create missing pages, configure HTTPS). Contact page detection also feeds a contactPoint entry in the Organization schema. Admin notice when HTTPS is missing (YMYL critical).
• New: llms.txt Inline Editor — edit the content served at /llms.txt directly from wp-admin. Override auto-generation, reload from auto, reset, 500 KB cap. Copy URL and “Test live” buttons.
• New: Author Box per-post hide — a checkbox in the OGEEAT metabox to disable the Author Box on a specific article. Useful for guest posts, press releases, landing pages. Developer filter ogeeat_author_box_display also available.
• New: Author Box smart defaults — automatically hidden on legal/utility pages (mentions-legales, privacy-policy, terms, cookies, sitemap, etc.). Filter ogeeat_author_box_legal_slugs to customize.
• New: Grok in Share with AI — 6th AI engine supported alongside ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Mistral and Gemini.
• New: Shadow Score discoverability — the scoring breakdown is now a click-to-toggle panel with aria-expanded / aria-controls attributes instead of a hidden hover tooltip. WCAG 2.1 AA compliant.
• New: Import from SEO plugin — one-click import of Organization name, logo, phone, email and social profiles from Yoast SEO, Rank Math or AIOSEO. Fills only empty OGEEAT fields.
• New: Export / Import settings — download the entire OGEEAT configuration as JSON and restore it on another site.
• New: Firewall self-test — pick an AI bot from the list and run a live request against your /robots.txt to confirm it’s actually blocked.
• New: Setup Wizard — Author Box step — enable the Author Box and pick post types during onboarding.
• New: Reviewed By column badge — a green check icon in the post list makes it easy to spot reviewed articles.
• New: Dashboard low-score counter — “N article(s) with incomplete AI signals” quick action card linked to the Bulk Audit screen.
• New: Metabox contextual hint — when the Author Box is disabled globally or not active on the current post type, a hint links directly to the relevant setting.
• Improved: Trust Signals HTTPS notice now requires manage_options capability.
• i18n: new French strings for all above features (strict Polyglots compliance).
