5.0.4

🛠 Improvements & Fixes

✅ Automatic AI Sitemap page generation
• The plugin now auto-creates a public /ai-sitemap page explaining what LLMs.txt is and how it improves AI visibility.

✅ Added support for ai.txt as an alternate LLM sitemap path
• The plugin now generates both /llms.txt and /ai.txt to maximize compatibility with future AI indexing standards.

• This improves discoverability by AI crawlers that look for ai.txt by default.

• Improved logic to prevent duplicate pages.
• Cleaned up sitemap text formatting for better readability.
• Hook-friendly architecture for developers.

🚀 This update makes your site even more AI-ready by exposing your content through both standard and emerging LLM indexing formats — paving the way for visibility in tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and beyond.

5.0.3

🛠 Improvements & Fixes

✅ Added support for AIOSEO plugin
• Integrated detection of aioseo_posts table to improve filtering accuracy.
• Posts marked with robots_noindex or robots_nofollow in AIOSEO are now correctly excluded from output.
• Fallback-safe: the logic only applies if the AIOSEO table exists in the database.

✅ Enhanced compatibility with multiple SEO plugins
• Filtering logic now handles both Rank Math and AIOSEO data sources.
• Posts without SEO meta data are still properly included unless explicitly marked as noindex.

🚀 This update expands SEO plugin compatibility, ensuring more accurate output when working with AIOSEO-powered sites, and avoids accidental indexing of excluded content.

5.0.2

5.0.1

🛠 Improvements & Fixes

✅ Fixed issue with empty LLMS-generated files
• Resolved a bug where LLMS-generated files could appear empty if the rank_math_robots meta key was missing from posts.
• The plugin now correctly includes posts even if the Rank Math plugin is not installed or the meta field is not present.
• Prevented false negatives by ensuring the query accounts for both existing and non-existent rank_math_robots fields.

✅ Improved meta query logic for noindex handling
• Extended the meta_query to handle posts without the rank_math_robots key gracefully.
• Ensured that only posts explicitly marked as noindex are excluded, while all others (including those with no SEO plugin data) are properly included.

✅ Improved file generation accuracy
• Ensured that LLMS-related output files contain valid, expected content — reducing cases where generated files were blank due to strict filtering.
• Improved fallback logic for posts without SEO meta data.

🚀 This update ensures that LLMS-generated files remain accurate and complete, even on sites that don’t use Rank Math, and improves overall reliability when filtering content by SEO metadata.

4.0.8

🛠 Improvements & Fixes

The handle_post_deletion() function now ignores post revisions by checking the post type (post_type !== ‘revision’).
This prevents unnecessary updates when WordPress auto-saves revisions or when users delete revisions manually.
✅ Enhanced stability of the content update process

Ensured that the handle_post_deletion() function only executes when an actual post is deleted, reducing unnecessary file rewrites.

Prevented duplicate rules from being registered.
