<p>Edward is the official WordPress connector for <strong>MeetEdward</strong>, an AI-powered SEO content automation service. Once installed, your WordPress site can receive articles published by Edward and have them appear as native posts — with proper SEO metadata, featured images, tags, and scheduling.</p>
<p>The plugin exposes a small, authenticated REST API at <code>/wp-json/edward/v1/*</code> that the MeetEdward service uses to publish articles. All endpoints require a randomly-generated API key that you copy into your MeetEdward dashboard once during setup. No data leaves your WordPress site without a request from MeetEdward, authenticated with your key.</p>
<h4>Key features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Publishes articles as standard WordPress posts.</li>
<li>Sets SEO title, focus keyword, meta description, canonical URL, noindex flag, Open Graph + Twitter Card tags for Yoast SEO, Rank Math, and All in One SEO — whichever you have installed.</li>
<li>Attaches featured images from external URLs with explicit alt text and caption support.</li>
<li>Supports tags, categories, and scheduled publishing (via WordPress’s built-in scheduled-post mechanism).</li>
<li>Idempotency keys prevent duplicate posts on retry.</li>
<li>Slug-conflict detection avoids SEO cannibalization.</li>
<li>Optional IndexNow integration for near-instant Bing/Yandex re-crawl notifications.</li>
<li>Diagnostics endpoint for support troubleshooting (PHP version, WP version, SEO plugin detection, file permissions).</li>
<li>Site discovery endpoints (authors, categories, tags) so the MeetEdward dashboard renders accurate dropdowns.</li>
<li>Survives hosts that disable the <code>fileinfo</code> PHP extension via a four-tier mime detection ladder.</li>
<li>Survives hosts that block the WordPress REST API for anonymous requests via a scoped bypass filter (Edward’s own routes still require the API key).</li>
<li>SSRF guard on external image URLs (blocks loopback, private IP ranges, link-local, ULA).</li>
</ul>
<h4>What this plugin needs from you</h4>
<p>After installation, copy the API key from the <strong>Tools <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Edward</strong> page in WordPress admin and paste it into your MeetEdward dashboard. That’s the only setup step.</p>
<h3>External services</h3>
<p>This plugin is the WordPress-side interface to <strong>MeetEdward</strong> (<code>https://meetedward.com</code>), an AI content service. To make the integration work, MeetEdward’s servers will call this plugin’s REST endpoints — every call is authenticated with the API key you generate.</p>
<p><strong>Data sent FROM your WordPress site TO MeetEdward:</strong> none initiated by the plugin. Responses to MeetEdward’s authenticated requests return information you’d expect for a publishing flow — created post IDs/URLs, your list of authors/categories/tags, basic site diagnostics — only when MeetEdward asks for them with a valid key.</p>
<p><strong>Data sent FROM MeetEdward TO your WordPress site:</strong> article title, body, SEO metadata, featured image URL, tags, category, schedule. These become standard WordPress posts.</p>
<p><strong>IndexNow:</strong> if you enable IndexNow via the MeetEdward dashboard, the plugin generates a key file inside your uploads directory (e.g. <code>https://yoursite.com/wp-content/uploads/edward-seo/abc123…txt</code>). MeetEdward then notifies <code>api.indexnow.org</code> of new article URLs with that URL passed as the <code>keyLocation</code> parameter, so Bing/Yandex/Naver/Seznam can re-crawl them. No data leaves your site directly from this plugin for IndexNow.</p>
