mintyorange

<p><strong>Minty Orange</strong> brings your content optimization suggestions from <a href="https://mintyorange.ai" rel="nofollow ugc">mintyorange.ai</a> straight into the WordPress editor, so you stay in control of every single change.</p>
<p>You optimize an article on Minty Orange. This plugin then shows the results as a review sidebar next to the Gutenberg editor. Every suggestion is its own card with a clear before and after preview. You decide, one by one: accept it, or skip it. Nothing is applied behind your back.</p>
<h4>Why publishers use it</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Review, don’t replace.</strong> Most optimization tools hand you a brand new article and expect you to paste it over your old one. Minty Orange shows you each change separately, in context, and lets you keep only the ones you like.</li>
<li><strong>Your media stays put.</strong> Accepting suggestions never drops your images, galleries, embeds, affiliate links, or shortcodes. The plugin re-anchors them around the optimized text.</li>
<li><strong>One-click apply.</strong> Happy with everything? “Accept all changes” applies the whole set in one step, and it stays fully reversible.</li>
<li><strong>Undo anything.</strong> Per-change undo plus a global “Undo all”, so you can experiment freely.</li>
</ul>
<h4>What it can do</h4>
<ul>
<li>Auto-detects the matching optimization when you open an article, so there are no IDs to copy and paste.</li>
<li>Turns rewrites, deletions, new sections, key takeaways, FAQs, comparison tables, and internal links each into its own reviewable card.</li>
<li>Updates your SEO title and meta description directly in Yoast SEO, Rank Math, or All in One SEO.</li>
<li>Smart-merges FAQ suggestions into your existing FAQ block instead of duplicating it.</li>
<li>Inserts internal links drawn from your own sitemap.</li>
</ul>
<h4>What you need</h4>
<p>A Minty Orange account at <a href="https://mintyorange.ai" rel="nofollow ugc">mintyorange.ai</a>. This plugin is the editor companion to the Minty Orange optimization service. It displays and applies optimizations created there; it does not generate them on its own.</p>
<h3>External services</h3>
<p>This plugin is the editor companion to the Minty Orange optimization service and connects to the Minty Orange API at mintyorange.ai. It does not function without a Minty Orange account, and it sends data to that service only in response to your actions in the WordPress admin or editor:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Authentication</strong> — every request includes the connection token you generate and paste into the plugin settings, sent in an <code>Authorization</code> header to mintyorange.ai. You can revoke the token at any time from your Minty Orange account.</li>
<li><strong>Loading an optimization</strong> — when you open an article or enter an optimization ID, the plugin sends that optimization ID to mintyorange.ai (and, for auto-detection, the article’s public URL) and receives the optimization suggestions back.</li>
<li><strong>Recording your decisions</strong> — when you accept or skip suggestions, the plugin sends the optimization ID and the per-suggestion status (accepted / skipped) to mintyorange.ai.</li>
<li><strong>Sitemap sync</strong> — when you click “Refresh sitemap” (and on first connect), the plugin sends the list of your published posts’ public URLs, titles, and slugs to mintyorange.ai, so the service can suggest internal links to your own content.</li>
</ul>
<p>The plugin does not send your article body content to the service; optimizations are created by you on mintyorange.ai by submitting an article URL there. Nothing is sent in the background — only when you actively connect, load an optimization, record a decision, or refresh your sitemap.</p>

<h3>Development</h3>
<p>The compiled JavaScript in <code>build/</code> is generated from the human-readable source in <code>src/</code>; both ship with the plugin. To rebuild it from source:</p>
<pre><code>npm install && npm run build
</code></pre>
<p>The build uses <a href="https://www.npmjs.com/package/@wordpress/scripts" rel="nofollow ugc">@wordpress/scripts</a> (webpack) and is fully reproducible from the included <code>src/</code> and <code>package.json</code>.</p>
