How to Access Links Manager

From your WordPress dashboard, go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Links Manager

The Links Manager Dashboard opens with several tabs that let you manage different link-related tasks from one place.

Understanding the Links Manager Dashboard

At the top of the Links Manager, you can access six main areas:

• Links Scan
• 404 Monitor
• Auto Scan
• Notifications
• Smart Redirects
• Internal Linking

Each area serves a different purpose in managing your website’s links.

Links Scan

Links Scan lets you scan selected content on your website and identify link issues.

The dashboard provides a quick summary of your latest link scan, including:

Total Links Checked

Shows the number of links checked during the scan.

Broken Links Detected

Shows how many scanned links were identified as broken and may require attention.

Healthy Links

Shows the number of links that responded successfully during the scan.

Automation

Shows whether your link scanning is currently being performed manually or through an automated schedule.

To run a scan, select the content type you want to check and click Start Scan.

404 Monitor

The 404 Monitor records requests for URLs on your website that return a 404 response.

It helps you identify:

• Frequently requested missing URLs
• The number of times a missing URL has been requested
• IP addresses associated with requests
• User agents
• When an error was first and last detected

You can filter the records, export them, clear logs, and take action on URLs that should redirect somewhere else.

Auto Scan

Auto Scan allows SEO Repair Kit to run link scans automatically according to a schedule.

You can configure:

• Scan interval
• Internal or external link scope
• Scan coverage
• Post types
• Batch size
• Maximum links per post
• HTTP timeout
• Email alerts

This is useful when you want SEO Repair Kit to continue checking your website without manually starting every scan.

Learn more: Set Up Automatic Link Scanning →

Notifications

The Notifications tab gives you a record of link scan activity and broken-link email alerts.

It contains two main areas:

Scan Run History

Shows recent manual and scheduled scans, including the scan trigger, scope, coverage, number of scanned posts, total links, and broken links.

Notification History

Shows email notifications previously sent for broken-link alerts.

Learn more: View Scan & Notification History →

Smart Redirects

Smart Redirects can automatically create 301 redirects for eligible broken internal singular URLs detected during a scan.

For supported post types, a broken URL can be redirected to the corresponding post-type archive.

For example:

/blog/deleted-post/ → /blog/

Smart Redirect records can be reviewed and managed from the Smart Redirects tab.

Learn more: Set Up Smart Redirects →

Internal Linking

The Internal Linking area provides SEO Repair Kit’s tools for improving links between content on your own website.

Because Internal Linking includes its own workflow and settings, it has separate documentation.

View Internal Linking Documentation →

By adding descriptive alternative text to your images, you help search engines index your content more effectively and ensure that users with visual impairments can understand what the images represent.

In the SEO Repair Kit plugin, you can easily review images that lack alt text and manually assign descriptive text to them, making sure your website adheres to SEO best practices.

SEO Repair Kit’s Meta Manager brings your website’s metadata and search-engine settings together in one place.

It helps you configure SEO titles and meta descriptions, manage metadata for different content types and taxonomies, control archive metadata, configure robots directives, and access Image SEO tools.

How to Access Meta Manager

From your WordPress dashboard, go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Meta Manager

The Meta Manager opens with several tabs for managing metadata and search-engine settings across your WordPress website.

Understanding the Meta Manager

At the top of Meta Manager, you can access six main areas:

• Global Meta
• Content Types
• Taxonomies
• Image SEO
• Archives
• Advance Settings

Each area controls a different part of your website’s SEO metadata or robots configuration.

Global Meta

Global Meta contains site-wide metadata settings.

You can configure:

• Title Separator
• Home Page SEO title
• Home Page meta description
• Knowledge Graph area

The Home Page section also includes a search-result-style preview.

Configure Global Meta Settings →

Content Types

Content Types lets you configure default metadata for content types registered on your WordPress website.

Depending on your website, these may include Posts, Pages, and other public custom post types.

For each available content type, you can configure:

• Meta Title
• Meta Description
• Advanced Robots Meta

Configure SEO Settings for Content Types →

Taxonomies

Taxonomies lets you configure metadata for taxonomy archive pages.

Depending on the website, available taxonomies may include Categories, Tags, and custom taxonomies registered by themes or plugins.

You can configure title and description templates and control whether a taxonomy inherits global robots settings.

Configure Taxonomy Meta Settings →

Image SEO

Image SEO connects Meta Manager with SEO Repair Kit’s Image Alt Missing feature.

It provides a summary of your images and gives you access to the workflow for reviewing images that are missing alternative text.

Manage Image SEO →

Archives

Archives contains metadata controls for:

• Author Archives
• Date Archives
• Search Page

Archive-specific robots controls are also available where supported.

Configure Archive Meta Settings →

Advance Settings

Advance Settings contains the Global Robots Meta configuration.

These settings provide the default robots behavior that other Meta Manager areas can inherit.

Configure Advanced Robots Meta Settings →

Individual Content Settings

Meta Manager also integrates with individual WordPress posts and pages.

This allows you to review the search preview and customize metadata for a specific piece of content without changing the default configuration for the entire content type.

Edit SEO Settings for Individual Posts & Pages →

Elementor Integration

SEO Repair Kit also provides Meta Manager controls inside Elementor Post Settings, allowing supported SEO settings to be managed while editing content with Elementor.

Use Meta Manager in Elementor →

Where Should I Start?

If you are configuring Meta Manager for the first time, start with Global Meta.

After setting your site-wide foundation, review Content Types, Taxonomies, Archives, and Advance Settings.

Configure Global Meta Settings →

Schema Manager helps you create structured data for search engines.

Use it to create schema such as:

• Article
• News Article
• Blog Posting
• FAQ
• Product
• Event
• Course
• JobPosting
• Review
• Recipe
• Local Business
• Organization
• Website
• Author
• Medical Condition

Auto Scan lets SEO Repair Kit scan links automatically on a schedule.

• Choose scan scope
• Choose post types
• Set batch size and request timeout
• Send automatic email reports

SEO Repair Kit is built around this idea:

Scan. Fix. Monitor.

It helps website owners find SEO problems, fix important issues, and keep monitoring their websites.

Link Scan:

Link Scan checks all internal and external links on your website to identify broken, redirected, or problematic URLs. It gives you a complete view of your site’s link health from one place — inside the Links Manager tab.

Introduction to Link Scan:
As your website grows, links naturally break or become outdated. Pages get deleted, URLs change, and external websites shut down. Manually checking every link is impossible for larger sites. Link Scan automates this process, scanning all your content and presenting results in an easy-to-understand report.

Why It Matters:
Broken links frustrate visitors, increase bounce rates, and harm SEO rankings. Link Scan helps you find and fix these issues before they damage your site’s reputation or search visibility. By identifying broken links early, you create a smoother browsing experience and maintain a healthy, professional website.

What You Can Do with Link Scan:

• Scan selected post types (Posts, Pages, custom post types)
• Review link URLs, HTTP status codes, and link context
• See where each broken link appears (post title, link text)
• Export broken links report to CSV
• Create redirects directly from scan results
• Edit source content to fix broken links

Requirements:

• SEO Repair Kit plugin installed and activated
• Post types selected for scanning in Settings
• Active internet connection for external link checking
• No coding skills required

Smart Redirects can automatically create safer redirects for broken internal URLs.

Use it to:

• Redirect broken singular content URLs
• Redirect deleted post URLs to relevant archive pages
• Enable or disable Smart Redirects per post type
• Review generated redirect records
• Reset Smart Redirect records if needed

1. Open Links Manager.
2. Go to 404 Monitor.
3. Review the list of 404 URLs.
4. If a URL should redirect somewhere, click the redirect option.
5. Choose the target URL.
6. Save the redirect.

Best practice

Do not redirect every 404 automatically. Redirect only URLs that have a useful replacement page.

Watch 404 Monitor Video : https://youtu.be/SnES_fmVOuo?si=k2EY3qoijKebKIrq

1. Open SEO Repair Kit → Internal Linking.
2. Review your Internal Linking settings.
3. Index your website content.
4. Add or review Target Keywords.
5. Open the post or page you want to edit.
6. Review Internal Linking Suggestions inside the editor.
7. Check the suggested anchor text and target page.
8. Apply relevant suggestions directly while editing.
9. Use Link Opportunities when you want to generate opportunities for the full website.
10. Review Approved Links, Orphan Content, and Reports when needed.

Recommended workflow

For regular content updates, use Editor-level Suggestions.

Use Link Opportunities mainly when you want to scan and generate opportunities across multiple posts and pages.

Best practice

Only apply suggestions when the anchor text and target page are relevant to the content being edited.

SEO Repair Kit’s 404 Monitor automatically tracks requests to missing URLs on your website. It helps you identify frequently requested 404 pages, review request details, and redirect important missing URLs to relevant destinations.

In this guide, you’ll learn how to view 404 errors, filter and review records, create a redirect, and manage your 404 logs.

How to Monitor 404 Errors

1. Open the 404 Monitor

In your WordPress Dashboard, go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Links Manager → 404 Monitor

If no 404 errors have been recorded yet, you will see No 404 Errors Yet.

SEO Repair Kit automatically logs 404 errors when requests are made to missing URLs on your website. You do not need to start the 404 Monitor manually.

2. Review Your 404 Errors

Once 404 errors are recorded, the dashboard displays your 404 statistics and error logs.

At the top, you can review:

Total 404 Errors — Total number of recorded 404 occurrences.

Unique URLs — Number of different URLs that generated 404 errors.

Log Entries — Number of recorded 404 log entries.

Most Hit 404 — The missing URL with the highest number of recorded requests.

Below the statistics, 404 Error Logs provides details about each error, including:

URL, Hits, IP Address, User Agent, First Seen, Last Seen, and Actions.

How to Search and Filter 404 Errors

Use the filtering options when you want to find specific 404 records.

You can:

• Use Filter by URL to search for a specific missing URL.
• Use Filter by IP to find requests associated with an IP address.
• Use Sort by and the order option to change how records are displayed.
• Click Apply Filters to apply your selections.
• Click Reset to clear the filters.

This lets you quickly narrow down the records you want to investigate.

How to Create a Redirect From a 404 Error

Not every 404 needs a redirect. However, if a missing URL has moved or has a relevant replacement, you can create a redirect directly from its 404 record.

1. Find the 404 URL and Click the Action Button

In 404 Error Logs, locate the URL you want to redirect.

Click the button in the Actions column.

SEO Repair Kit will take you to the Redirection screen.

2. Configure the Redirection

The selected 404 URL is automatically added to the Source URL field.

Complete the redirect settings:

Source URL — Automatically contains the missing URL selected from the 404 Monitor.

Target URL — Enter the relevant working URL where visitors should be sent.

Redirect Type — Choose the appropriate redirect type. Use 301 – Moved Permanently when the URL has permanently moved.

Use Regular Expression — Leave this disabled for a normal redirect unless you specifically need pattern-based matching.

After reviewing the information, click Add Redirection.

Important: Only redirect a 404 when there is a useful and relevant replacement. Avoid redirecting unrelated missing URLs to your homepage.

Manage Your 404 Records

The 404 Monitor also provides tools for managing and exporting your records.

Bulk Actions

Select multiple records using their checkboxes, choose an available Bulk Action, and click Apply.

Export CSV

Click Export CSV to export the available 404 records for reporting or offline review.

Refresh Stats

Click Refresh Stats to reload the latest 404 statistics and records.

Clear All Logs

Click Clear All Logs when you intentionally want to remove the existing 404 monitoring history.

Important: Export any records you want to keep before clearing the logs.

Should Every 404 Error Be Redirected?

No. A 404 does not automatically require a redirect.

Create a redirect when an old page has permanently moved or when there is a clear and relevant replacement.

For example:

/old-services/ → /services/

If the URL was never valid or there is no useful replacement, it can remain a 404.

What’s the Difference Between Links Scan and 404 Monitor?

Links Scan checks links contained within your WordPress content and identifies links that may be broken.

404 Monitor records requests made to missing URLs on your own website.

Using both tools helps you identify different types of link issues.

The Global Meta tab contains site-wide metadata controls for your WordPress website.

It includes:

• Title Separator
• Home Page
• Knowledge Graph

Open Global Meta

Go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Meta Manager → Global Meta

You will see the Title Separator, Home Page, and Knowledge Graph sections.

Configure the Title Separator

Expand Title Separator.

The separator is used between different parts of dynamic SEO title templates.

For example:

Post Title + Separator + Site Title

Choose the separator you want to use throughout supported Meta Manager title templates.

When the Separator dynamic tag is used elsewhere in Meta Manager, SEO Repair Kit uses the separator selected here.

Configure Home Page Metadata

Expand Home Page.

The Home Page section lets you configure the default SEO title and meta description for your homepage.

Understand the SERP Preview

The preview gives you a search-result-style representation of your homepage metadata.

It can display:

• URL
• SEO title
• Meta description

Use it to review your configuration while editing.

Note: Search engines may choose to display different title or description text in actual search results.

Configure the Site Title

Find Site Title.

You can build the homepage title using available dynamic tags.

The current interface provides quick tags including:

• Site Title
• Tagline
• Separator
• View all tags →

For example:

%site_title% %sep% %tagline%

SEO Repair Kit replaces the dynamic variables with the corresponding website information when generating metadata.

Review the Title Length

Meta Manager provides character feedback below the title field.

The interface recommends a title of up to 60 characters.

Use the character indicator as guidance rather than adding or removing useful information solely to reach an exact number.

Configure the Meta Description

Find Meta Description.

You can enter a description or use supported dynamic tags such as:

• Site Title
• Tagline
• Separator
• Other variables available through View all tags

The current interface recommends a meta description of up to 160 characters.

Write a concise description that accurately represents the website.

What Are Dynamic Tags?

Dynamic tags are reusable placeholders.

For example:

%site_title%

uses the current website title, while:

%sep%

uses the Title Separator selected in Global Meta.

They allow you to create reusable metadata patterns without manually entering the same values repeatedly.

Knowledge Graph

Expand Knowledge Graph.

This area is designed to provide entity-related structured information about the person or organization behind the website.

In the shared interface, advanced Knowledge Graph and Author schema functionality is presented through Schema Manager Pro.

Use Unlock Schema Manager (Pro) where that functionality is available for the current plan.

Schema Manager Documentation →

Note: Structured data can provide search engines with additional context but does not guarantee a Knowledge Panel or specific search-result feature.

Save Your Settings

After making changes, click:

SAVE CHANGES

Use Reset to Defaults only when you intentionally want to return the settings on this screen to their default configuration.

Configure SEO Settings for Content Types →

1. Open Schema Manager.
2. Choose schema type.
3. Fill required fields.
4. Map fields to content where needed.
5. Preview the schema.

Free access note

Free Link Scanner access may be limited to Pages and a limited number of links per run.

SEO Repair Kit has two main ways to buy:

– Complete Packages: best when you want the full SEO Repair Kit toolset.

– Individual Modules: best when you only need one specific tool.

Link Scanning:
When you click Start Scan, Link Scan examines every link across your selected post types — including pages, posts, and embedded links. It checks each link’s HTTP status to determine whether it’s active, redirected, or broken — covering both internal and external URLs.

Status Detection:
Each link is tested and categorized as:

Link Reporting:
Once the scan is complete, all detected broken links are organized into a clear, easy-to-read table. Each entry shows:

• Post Title – Where the broken link appears
• Type – Content type (Post, Page, etc.)
• Status – Publication status (Published, Draft, etc.)
• Broken Link URL – The actual failing link
• HTTP Status Code – Error type (e.g., 404 Not Found)
• Link Text – Anchor text used in the content
• Redirect Action – Option to redirect the broken link
• Edit Icon – Quickly edit the source content

Manual Detection:
You can manually trigger a scan at any time. This is especially useful after publishing new content or making major updates, ensuring broken links are caught immediately.

Fixing Broken Links:
From the report dashboard, you can fix broken links in just a few clicks:

• Edit the link to update it with a correct URL
• Redirect the link to a relevant working page
• Remove the link if it’s no longer needed

Export Capability:
Click Download CSV to export the broken links report. This is useful for sharing with team members, tracking fixes, or maintaining audit records.

Proactive Monitoring:
Regular manual scans help prevent future issues. By scanning after content changes, you ensure new broken links are identified early — keeping your website healthy, user-friendly, and SEO-optimized.

1. Open Links Manager.
2. Go to Smart Redirects.
3. Enable Smart Redirects.
4. Select the post types you want to protect.
5. Save settings.
6. Review generated redirect records.

Best practice

Use Smart Redirects for clear, predictable cases. For important pages, manually confirm the best target URL.

This guide explains how to use the 404 Monitor in the SEO Repair Kit plugin to identify and manage broken URLs on your website.

Follow the steps below to monitor and analyze 404 errors.

Step 1 – Access the 404 Monitor

1. Log in to your WordPress Admin Dashboard.
2. In the left navigation menu, locate SEO Repair Kit.
3. Click on 404 Monitor.

Navigation path: Dashboard → SEO Repair Kit → 404 Monitor

Step 2 – View the 404 Error Logs

The 404 Monitor dashboard displays a list of all detected broken URLs on your website.

Each entry in the list represents a 404 error request that has been recorded by the plugin when a user or search engine attempts to access a page that does not exist.

For every logged error, the system provides several important details to help you understand the issue.

The URL field shows the page address that returned the 404 error.

The Referrer indicates the page where the broken link originated. This helps identify whether the error is coming from an internal page on your website or an external source.

The Hits value represents how many times the broken URL has been accessed. A higher number of hits may indicate that the issue needs immediate attention.

The Last Accessed information shows the most recent time the error occurred.

Step 3 – Identify the Source of the Error

After reviewing the error logs, the next step is to determine why the 404 error is occurring.

You can identify the source of the problem by checking the Referrer information and the requested URL. This helps you understand where the broken link originated and what might be causing the issue.

In many cases, 404 errors occur because a page has been deleted, the URL structure has changed, or a link was entered incorrectly.

Common causes of 404 errors include:

• Internal links pointing to pages that no longer exist
• External websites linking to incorrect URLs
• Pages that were moved without setting up a redirect
• Typographical errors in URLs
• Old URLs still indexed by search engines

Step 4 – Fix the Broken URL

Once you understand the cause of the error, you can take the appropriate action to resolve it.

If the broken link is coming from inside your website, you can edit the content and update the link with the correct URL.

If the page has been moved or renamed, it is recommended to create a redirect from the old URL to the new one. Redirects ensure that visitors and search engines are automatically sent to the correct page.

In some cases, the page may have been deleted accidentally. If the content is still important, you may choose to restore or recreate the page.

Taking the correct action will help prevent visitors from encountering broken pages and will maintain a better user experience.

Step 5 – Monitor and Maintain

After fixing the issue, it is important to continue monitoring the 404 Monitor logs.

Regularly checking the logs allows you to detect new broken links and resolve them quickly. This practice helps maintain the overall health of your website.

By monitoring 404 errors consistently, you can:

• Improve user experience
• Maintain better SEO performance
• Prevent search engines from indexing broken pages
• Keep your website structure clean and organized

Step 1: Open Internal Linking

Go to your WordPress dashboard and navigate to:

SEO Repair Kit → Internal Linking

The Dashboard gives you a quick overview of Internal Linking activity.

Step 2: Review Settings

Open the Settings tab.

Review the available options for:

• Internal Linking
• Language
• Ignore words
• Content settings
• Auto Linking
• AI settings

Save your settings.

Step 3: Index Your Content

Open the Content Index tab.

Content Index prepares your website content for Internal Linking analysis.

Use it to:

• Index posts and pages
• Review indexed content
• Refresh the index when content changes

Complete the Content Index before using Internal Linking Suggestions.

Step 4: Add Target Keywords

Open the Target Keywords tab.

Target Keywords help define the main topic of your content.

Use it to:

• Add a target keyword
• Review existing keywords
• Update keywords when the page topic changes

Use a keyword that accurately represents the page content.

Step 5: Open a Post or Page

Go to:

WordPress → Posts or Pages → Edit

Open the content you want to improve.

SEO Repair Kit will show available Internal Linking Suggestions inside the editor.

This is the recommended way to review suggestions while working on individual content.

Review the suggestions shown for the current post or page.

Check:

• Suggested anchor text
• Target page
• Content relevance

Only apply links that naturally fit the content.

If the suggestion is relevant, use the available action to apply it.

After applying the link, review the content to make sure:

Step 8: Generate Full-Site Opportunities

If you want to review Internal Linking opportunities across the whole website, go to:

Internal Linking → Link Opportunities

You can generate:

• Rule-Based Opportunities
• AI Link Opportunities

Use this option when you want to analyze multiple indexed posts and pages together.

After generation is complete, review:

• Source page
• Anchor text
• Target page
• Relevance

Approve or apply only useful suggestions.

For normal page-by-page editing, Editor-level Suggestions are recommended instead.

Step 10: Review Approved Links

Open the Approved Links tab.

Use it to review links that have already been approved.

You can check:

• Source page
• Anchor text
• Target page
• Link status

Step 11: Check Orphan Content

Open the Orphan Content tab.

Orphan Content helps identify pages that need more incoming internal links.

To improve an important orphan page:

1. Find a related post or page.
2. Edit that content.
3. Add a natural internal link to the orphan page.

Step 12: Review Reports

Open the Reports tab.

Use Reports to review Internal Linking activity and overall progress.

1. What data sources does KeyTrack Configuration use?

KeyTrack primarily uses data from Google Search Console and search engine results (like Google rankings). It collects metrics such as keyword position, impressions, and CTR directly from these sources.

2. How many keywords can I track simultaneously?

There is usually no strict fixed limit, but it depends on your plan or system capacity. In general:

• Small setups: hundreds of keywords
• Medium/large projects: thousands or even unlimited tracking

3. Can I receive alerts for keyword position drops?

Yes. Most keyword tracking systems (including setups like KeyTrack) allow:

• Alerts for ranking drops or gains
• Notifications when keywords move significantly
  This helps you react quickly to SEO changes.

4. How often is the data updated?

Data is typically updated:

• Daily (every 24 hours) in most tracking tools
• Sometimes at a scheduled time you choose

5. Can I track keywords in multiple languages?

Yes. KeyTrack Configuration supports:

• Multiple languages
• Different countries and locations
• Separate tracking per language setting

SEO Repair Kit’s Auto Scan lets you automatically check your website for broken links on a schedule. You can choose how often scans run, which links and content types are checked, and whether email alerts are sent when broken links are found.

In this guide, you’ll learn how to configure and run automatic link scanning.

How to Set Up Automatic Link Scanning

1. Open Auto Scan

In your WordPress Dashboard, go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Links Manager → Auto Scan

The Auto Scan Settings screen will open.

2. Enable Automatic Scanning

Under Enable Automation, select:

Automatically scan links on a schedule

Then use Scan Interval to choose how often SEO Repair Kit should automatically scan your links.

For example, select Every 24 hours if you want the scan to run once every 24 hours.

3. Choose Which Links and Content to Scan

Use Link Scope to choose which types of links should be checked.

You can configure the scan for internal links, external links, or both.

Then use Scan Coverage to choose how much of your website should be included.

Link Scope

Choose the link types you want SEO Repair Kit to check.

Select Both Internal and External Links if you want both types included.

Scan Coverage

Choose how SEO Repair Kit determines which content should be scanned.

Selected Post Types lets you manually choose specific content types.

Whole Website automatically includes applicable posts, pages, and public custom post types.

4. Select the Post Types to Scan

If Scan Coverage is set to Selected Post Types, choose the content types you want to include.

For example, you can select Posts, Pages, or any other relevant public post types available on your website.

The exact options depend on the content types registered on your WordPress installation.

Note: The Post Types to Scan options are used only when Scan Coverage is set to Selected Post Types.

Configure Scan Processing

The next three settings control how SEO Repair Kit processes links during automatic scans.

Batch Size

Batch Size controls how many posts are fetched in each database batch.

All matching content is still scanned.

If you are unsure, you can keep the existing/default value.

Max Links per Post

Controls how many links can be scanned in each content item.

Set this to 0 to scan all links found in each item.

HTTP Timeout (seconds)

Controls how long SEO Repair Kit waits for a link request before it times out.

If you are unsure, keep the existing/default value.

Enable Broken Link Email Alerts

If you want to receive an email when an automatic scan finds broken links, enable:

Send email alerts when broken links are found

Then enter the email address that should receive the alerts.

For multiple recipients, enter the email addresses separated by commas, as indicated in the interface.

Save Your Auto Scan Settings

After configuring the scan, click Save Settings.

Once automation is enabled and the configuration is saved, check Next scheduled run to see when the next automatic scan is scheduled.

Run a Scan Immediately

You do not need to wait for the next scheduled scan if you want to check your links immediately.

Click Run Scan.

SEO Repair Kit will start a scan using your configured Auto Scan settings.

After the scan completes, you can review its activity from:

Links Manager → Notifications

Reset Auto Scan

The Auto Scan screen also provides two reset options.

Reset Settings

Click Reset Settings when you want to reset the Auto Scan configuration.

Reset Scan

Click Reset Scan when you need to reset the scan state.

Important: Use the reset options only when necessary. If you only want to change your automatic scan configuration, update the required fields and click Save Settings instead.

Recommended Auto Scan Setup

If you want to monitor both internal and external links across selected website content, you can configure Auto Scan like this:

Enable Automation: Enabled
Scan Interval: Every 24 hours
Link Scope: Both Internal and External Links
Scan Coverage: Selected Post Types
Post Types: Select the content types you want monitored
Max Links per Post: 0 to scan all links
Email Alerts: Enabled if you want broken-link notifications

For Batch Size and HTTP Timeout, keep your existing/default values unless you have a specific reason to change them.

What Happens After You Enable Auto Scan?

Once your settings are saved, SEO Repair Kit can run link scans according to the selected schedule.

When scans run, you can review information such as scanned content, total links, broken links, and email alert activity from the Notifications tab.

View Scan & Notification History →

What’s the Difference Between Links Scan and Auto Scan?

Links Scan is useful when you want to manually select content and run a link scan yourself.

Auto Scan lets SEO Repair Kit perform recurring scans based on your saved schedule and configuration.

You can use both together: run manual scans whenever needed and use Auto Scan for ongoing monitoring.

1. What sitemap does this feature control?

It controls only the default WordPress sitemap:

/wp-sitemap.xml

2. Will this affect my SEO?

Yes — positively.

It helps:

• Remove low-quality URLs
• Improve crawl efficiency
• Focus indexing on important pages

3. Can I exclude specific pages only?

Currently, control is based on:

• Post types
• Taxonomies

(Not individual URLs)

4. Why do I still see unwanted URLs?

Possible reasons:

• Another SEO plugin is generating a different sitemap
• Cache is not cleared
• Sitemap Control is not enabled

5. Do I need technical knowledge?

No.

The feature is designed to be:

• Beginner-friendly
• Fully UI-based
• No coding required

Step 1: Open the Image ALT Text Manager

From the WordPress admin panel, go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Image Alt Missing

This opens the Image ALT Text dashboard.

Step 2: Review the Overview Metrics

At the top of the dashboard, you’ll see key summary cards:

• Total Images
  Displays the total number of images in your media library.
• Missing ALT Text
  Shows how many images require optimization.
• With ALT Text
  Confirms how many images are already optimized.
• Health Score
  A percentage score representing your overall ALT text optimization status.

These metrics help you quickly assess image SEO health.

Step 3: Filter Images by ALT Status

Use the filter buttons to manage images efficiently:

• All – View all images
• Missing Alt – Show only images without ALT text

• Has Alt – Display images already optimized

This allows you to focus only on images that need attention.

Step 4: Browse the Image Library

Scroll through the image cards in the Image Library section.
Each image card shows:

• Image preview
• Image title
• Upload date
• ALT text status indicator

Images missing ALT text are clearly highlighted.

Step 5: Add ALT Text to an Individual Image

Click Add Alt Text on any image card.

• Enter a clear, descriptive ALT text
• Keep it concise and relevant
• Include keywords naturally where appropriate

Save the changes to instantly update the image.

Step 6: Monitor Optimization Progress

As ALT text is added:

• The Missing ALT Text count decreases
• The count of ALT Text increases
• The Health Score improves in real time

This provides immediate feedback on your optimization progress.

Step 7: Maintain Ongoing Image Optimization

Revisit the Image ALT Text Manager regularly—especially after uploading new images—to ensure all visuals remain optimized for SEO and accessibility.

The Content Types tab lets you define default metadata and robots behavior for different types of content on your WordPress website.

In this guide

• Open Content Types
• Select a content type
• Configure Meta Title
• Configure Meta Description
• Use dynamic tags
• Configure Advanced Robots Meta
• Understand Sync Advanced Settings
• Configure custom robots settings
• Save settings

Open Content Types

Go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Meta Manager → Content Types

SEO Repair Kit displays the content types currently registered on your website.

The exact list can vary between websites.

For example, your current test environment includes content types such as Posts, Pages and different CPT.

Select a Content Type

Expand the content type you want to configure.

For this guide, we will use Posts as the example.

The Posts area contains:

• Title & Description
• Advanced Robots Meta

Configure the Meta Title

Open Title & Description.

Under Meta Title for single Post, configure the default title template used for Posts.

The current interface provides quick tags including:

• Posts Title
• Site Name
• Separator
• View all tags →

A typical dynamic template can look like:

%title% %sep% %site_title%

This is a default template. Individual posts can override it from their own SEO settings.

Configure the Meta Description

Under Meta Description for single Post, configure the default description pattern.

Available quick tags include:

• Posts Excerpt
• Posts Title
• Site Description
• View all tags →

A default template can use:

%excerpt%

SEO Repair Kit replaces the dynamic value with information from each individual post.

Configure Other Content Types

Repeat the same process for other content types that require SEO metadata.

Do not assume every website will display the same content types.

The available list depends on WordPress, the active theme, and installed plugins.

Configure Advanced Robots Meta

Open Advanced Robots Meta for the selected content type.

The first important control is:

Sync Advanced Settings

When Sync Advanced Settings Is Enabled

The content type follows the global robots configuration from:

Meta Manager → Advance Settings

This is useful when you want consistent robots behavior across the website.

Use Custom Robots Settings

Disable Sync Advanced Settings when the selected content type genuinely requires its own robots configuration.

Custom controls become available.

The current Posts interface includes:

• No Index
• No Follow
• No Archive
• No Translate
• No Image Index
• No Snippet
• No ODP
• Max Snippet
• Max Video Preview
• Max Image Preview

Max Snippet

Controls the maximum snippet length.

In the current interface:

-1

represents an unlimited value.

Max Video Preview

Controls the maximum permitted video-preview length.

-1 represents unlimited in the current interface.

Max Image Preview

Controls the permitted image-preview size.

The interface includes options such as Large.

Important: Custom settings override the inherited global robots configuration for that content type. Do not enable No Index or other restrictive directives without understanding their indexing effect.

Save Your Content Type Settings

Click SAVE CHANGES after completing your configuration.

Repeat the process for any other content type that requires different metadata.

Configure Taxonomy Meta Settings →

Step 1: Access the Schema Manager
From your SEO Repair Kit dashboard, navigate to:
SEO Repair Kit → Schema Manager
This is your central workspace where you can create, manage, and deploy structured data (schema markup) across your website.

Step 2: Ensure Pro Feature is Active
Schema Manager is a Pro feature, so make sure:

• Your Pro license is activated
• The feature is enabled in your plugin

Without activation, schema options will not be available.

Step 3: Choose a Schema Type
Click on “Add New Schema” or select an existing one.
You’ll see 15+ supported schema types, such as:

Article
FAQ
Product
Event
Review
Recipe
Local Business
Course
Job Posting
Video Object
Select the schema type that best matches your content.

Step 4: Configure Schema Assignment
Decide where the schema should be applied:

• Posts
• Pages
• Custom Post Types

This ensures the correct schema appears only on relevant content.

Step 5: Map Content Fields
Use the visual field mapper to connect your content with schema properties.
For example:

Post Title → Headline

Featured Image → Image

Content → Description

This step ensures your schema pulls dynamic, accurate data automatically.

Step 6: Customize Schema Fields
Enable or disable specific schema fields based on your needs:

• Add custom values if required
• Remove unnecessary fields
• Adjust optional properties for better accuracy

This helps maintain clean and optimized structured data.

Step 7: Save Configuration
Once everything is set:

• Click Save Schema
• The schema will now be automatically applied to selected content

No coding or manual insertion is required.

Step 8: Validate Your Schema
After saving, test your schema using:

• Google Rich Results Test
• Schema validation tools

This confirms:

Your schema is eligible for rich results

No errors exist

Using the Auto Scan Feature:

Step 1: Access the Auto Scan Tab
From your SEO Repair Kit dashboard, navigate to the Auto Scan tab. This is where you configure and manage all automated scanning settings.

Step 2: Enable Automation
Toggle the Enable Automation switch to ON.

Important: Automation must be enabled before any scheduled scans can run. Without this, no automatic scans will occur even if intervals are set.

Step 3: Choose Scan Interval
Select how often you want Auto Scan to run

• Daily – Scans every 24 hours
• Every 3 days – Scans once every three days
• Weekly – Scans once per week
• Biweekly – Scans every two weeks
• Monthly – Scans once per month

Choose based on how frequently your content changes or how often external links tend to break.

Step 4: Configure Scan Scope
Select which content types to include in automated scans:

• Posts – Include blog posts and articles
• Pages – Include static pages
• Other post types – Custom post types if supported

You can select one or multiple types. Scans will only check the content you specify.

Step 5: Set Scan Coverage & Batch Limits

• Batch size – Number of links to process per batch (controls server load)
• Links per post – Maximum links to scan per individual post/page
• Request timeout – How long to wait for a link response before marking as failed

These settings help balance scan thoroughness with website performance.

Step 6: Enable Email Alerts (Optional)
Toggle email alerts ON if you want to receive notifications when broken links are discovered. Enter the email address where alerts should be sent.

Step 7: Save Settings
Click the Save Settings button. Your Auto Scan configuration is now active.

The system will begin running scans automatically based on your chosen interval from this point forward.

Step 8: Monitor Scan History
After scans start running, return to the Auto Scan tab to review:

• Last scan date and time – When the most recent scan completed
• Scan history – List of all past automated scans with timestamps
• Latest snapshot – Current link health summary from the most recent scan

Step 9: Review Broken Links Found
When Auto Scan detects broken links, they appear in the broken links report (same as manual scan results). Each entry shows:

• Post title and type
• Broken link URL
• HTTP status code (e.g., 404)
• Link text
• Options to fix or redirect

Step 10: Maintain Without Manual Effort
Once configured, Auto Scan runs continuously on your selected schedule. You only need to:

• Fix or redirect broken links when notified
• Adjust settings if your scanning needs change
• Otherwise, let automation handle the rest

Complete Packages include the full SEO Repair Kit toolset for a set number of websites.

Using the Link Scan

Step 1: Access Link Scan
From your WordPress admin menu, go to SEO Repair Kit → Links Manager → Link Scan tab.

This is your main workspace for manually scanning, reviewing, and fixing broken links across your site.

Step 2: Review the Overview Cards
At the top of the dashboard, you’ll see a quick summary of your site’s link health:

These cards give you an instant health check before diving into details.

Step 3: Select What You Want to Scan
Use the Select Post Type dropdown to choose which content to scan, such as:

• Posts
• Pages
• Custom post types (if available)

This lets you focus scans on specific areas of your website. For example, scan only Pages if that’s where you recently made changes.

Step 4: Start the Scan
Click the Start Scan button to begin scanning the selected content.

During the scan:

• The scanner checks internal and external links
• Each link is tested for availability and error responses
• Progress is shown in real time with a progress bar

Step 5: Monitor Scan Progress
During the scan, a progress bar appears with status messages such as:

• “Scanning… (45% complete)”
• “Checking links in Posts…”
• “Scan complete!”

Once finished, you’ll also see:

• Total links scanned
• Completion percentage
• Time of the last scan

This confirms the scan has completed successfully.

Step 6: Review Broken Links Found
Scroll down to the Broken Links Found table to see detailed results.

Each row includes:

This table makes it easy to understand exactly where and why each issue exists.

Step 7: Fix or Redirect Broken Links

For each broken link, you can take action directly from the table:

Option 1: Edit the Link

• Click the Edit icon (pencil) next to the broken link
• You will be taken to the post/page editor
• Update the broken URL to a correct working address
• Save/Update the post

Option 2: Create a Redirect

• Click the Redirect Action button
• Enter the target URL (where visitors should go instead)
• Select redirect type (301 Permanent or 302 Temporary)
• Click Save — the redirect is created instantly

Option 3: Remove the Link

• Click the Edit icon to go to the content
• Delete or unlink the problematic URL
• Save/Update the post

All actions are performed without writing any code.

Step 8: Export the Report (Optional)
Click Download CSV to export the broken links report.

The CSV file includes:

• Post title
• Broken link URL
• HTTP status code
• Link text
• And more

This is useful for:

• Sharing with team members
• Tracking fixes in a spreadsheet
• Maintaining audit records for clients

Step 9: Re-scan to Confirm Fixes
After fixing broken links, run another scan to confirm:

• Errors are resolved
• Your site is fully healthy
• No new broken links exist

Regular re-scans help maintain strong SEO and user experience.

Step 10: Maintain Ongoing Link Health
Run manual scans whenever you:

• Publish new content
• Update existing pages
• Migrate or delete URLs
• Before and after site migrations

This ensures broken links never silently damage your SEO again.

Using the Smart Redirects

Step 1: Access Smart Redirects
From your WordPress admin menu, go to SEO Repair Kit → Links Manager → Smart Redirects tab.

This is where you enable, manage, and monitor automatic redirects for broken content.

Step 2: Enable Smart Redirects for Post Types

In the Smart Redirects settings section, you’ll see a list of available post types:

To enable:

• Locate the post type you want to protect
• Toggle the switch to ON
• Smart Redirects is now active for that content type

Example: If you enable Smart Redirects for Posts, whenever a blog post is deleted, visitors to that post’s URL will be automatically redirected to the main blog archive page.

Note: If a post type does not have an archive page, the toggle will be disabled or hidden.

Step 3: View Generated Redirect Records

Below the settings section, you’ll see a Generated Redirects table showing all automatically created Smart Redirects.

The table includes:

Step 4: Manage Individual Redirects

For each redirect in the table, you can perform these actions:

Toggle Status (Active/Inactive):

• Click the Status toggle (or Active/Inactive button)
• When Active – Redirect works normally
• When Inactive – Redirect is paused; visitors see 404 instead
• Use this to temporarily disable a redirect without deleting it

Delete a Redirect:

• Click the Delete button (trash icon) next to the redirect
• Confirm deletion
• This removes the redirect record AND deletes the linked redirect from Redirection Manager
• The redirect will no longer work

Step 5: Reset All Records

If you want to delete ALL Smart Redirects at once:

• Click the Reset All Records button
• Confirm that you want to delete every Smart Redirect
• All redirect records are permanently removed
• Smart Redirects will stop working for all post types until re-enabled or new redirects are generated

Use this when:

• You’re restructuring your entire website
• You want a fresh start with redirects
• You’re migrating to a new URL structure

Step 6: Reset Records by Selected Post Type

If you want to delete Smart Redirects for only ONE content type:

• Click the Reset by Post Type button
• Select which post type from the dropdown (e.g., Posts only)
• Confirm deletion
• Only redirects for that specific post type are removed
• Other post types’ Smart Redirects remain intact

Example: If you reset by “Posts”, all /blog/old-post/ → /blog/ redirects are deleted, but Product redirects still work.

Step 7: Manage Redirects in Redirection Manager

All Smart Redirects also appear in the main Redirection Manager:

• Go to SEO Repair Kit → Redirection
• You will see all Smart Redirects listed alongside your manual redirects
• Smart Redirects are labeled or identifiable by their source/target pattern
• From here, you can:
  • Edit the target URL
  • Change redirect type (301 to 302, etc.)
  • View hit counts and analytics
  • Delete or modify as needed

Note: Changes made in Redirection Manager will reflect back in Smart Redirects tab.

Step 8: Test That Smart Redirects Are Working

To verify Smart Redirects is functioning:

1. Delete a test post (or use an already deleted post)
2. Open an incognito/private browser window
3. Visit the deleted post’s URL directly (e.g., yoursite.com/blog/test-post/)
4. You should be automatically redirected to the archive page (yoursite.com/blog/)
5. Check that the redirect is a 301 (permanent) redirect

Step 9: Monitor and Maintain

• Regular Checks: Periodically review the Generated Redirects table to see which redirects have been created
• Clean Up: If you permanently remove an archive page, consider resetting redirects for that post type
• Manual Overrides: If an automatic redirect isn’t appropriate for a specific URL, toggle it inactive or create a manual redirect instead

What is a 404 error?

A 404 error occurs when a user or search engine tries to access a page that does not exist on the website. This usually happens when a page has been deleted, moved, or the URL was entered incorrectly.

Why are 404 errors important for SEO?

404 errors can negatively affect user experience and SEO performance if they occur frequently. Broken pages may prevent users from accessing content and can reduce the overall quality of your website in the eyes of search engines.

How does the 404 Monitor detect errors?

The 404 Monitor automatically tracks requests made to pages that do not exist. When WordPress returns a 404 status response, the plugin records the request and stores the information in the 404 Monitor logs.

Where can I find the 404 error logs?

You can view the detected 404 errors in your WordPress Dashboard by navigating to:

Dashboard → SEO Repair Kit → 404 Monitor

This page displays all logged 404 error requests.

What should I do when I find a 404 error?

When you detect a 404 error, you should first identify the cause. If the page has moved, you can create a redirect to the correct URL. If the link is incorrect, update it within your content. In some cases, restoring the missing page may also solve the issue.

How often should I check the 404 Monitor?

It is recommended to review the 404 Monitor logs regularly, especially after making major changes to your website such as updating URLs, removing pages, or restructuring content.

Regular monitoring helps ensure that broken links are resolved quickly.

Will fixing 404 errors improve my website?

Yes. Resolving broken links improves user experience, helps search engines crawl your website more efficiently, and supports better SEO performance.

What does Internal Linking do?

Internal Linking helps you find and manage relevant links between pages on your website.

Where should I normally check Internal Linking Suggestions?

We recommend checking suggestions directly inside the post or page editor while working on your content.

What is the Link Opportunities tab used for?

Use the Link Opportunities tab when you want to generate and review opportunities across the full website.

Do I need to use Link Opportunities for every post?

No. For normal editing, use the suggestions available directly inside the editor.

Do I need to run Content Index first?

Yes. Content Index prepares your website content for Internal Linking analysis.

What are Target Keywords?

Target Keywords define the main topic or keyword associated with your content.

Do Target Keywords help with Internal Linking Suggestions?

Yes. Relevant Target Keywords can help the system understand the focus of your pages.

What is a Link Opportunity?

A Link Opportunity is a suggested internal link between a source page and a relevant target page.

What is the difference between Editor Suggestions and Link Opportunities?

Editor Suggestions are designed for the post or page you are currently editing.

Link Opportunities are used when you want to generate opportunities across the full website.

What is the difference between Rule-Based and AI Link Opportunities?

Rule-Based Opportunities use content matching and Internal Linking rules.

AI Link Opportunities use AI-assisted analysis to find relevant relationships between pages.

Does Rule-Based Internal Linking require AI?

No.

Can I use Rule-Based and AI Opportunities together?

Yes.

Should I apply every suggestion?

No. Always review the anchor text, target page, and surrounding content first.

What is Orphan Content?

Orphan Content identifies pages that have little or no incoming internal links.

How do I improve Orphan Content?

Find a related page, open it in the editor, and add a relevant internal link to the orphan page.

What are Approved Links?

Approved Links lets you review Internal Linking suggestions that have already been approved.

What is Auto Linking?

Auto Linking automatically adds eligible internal links according to your configured settings.

Why are no Editor Suggestions showing?

Check that:

• Internal Linking is enabled
• Your content has been indexed
• Relevant content exists
• Target Keywords are configured where needed
• Your Internal Linking settings are correct

When should I generate full-site Link Opportunities?

Use full-site generation when:

• You have indexed many new pages
• You want to improve Internal Linking across the website
• You want to find missed linking opportunities
• You want to run Rule-Based or AI analysis across multiple pages

When should I refresh the Content Index?

Refresh it after publishing new content or making major changes to existing pages.

What is the recommended workflow?

For normal content work:

Content Index → Target Keywords → Edit Post/Page → Review Editor Suggestions → Apply Relevant Links

For full-site analysis:

Content Index → Target Keywords → Link Opportunities → Generate Opportunities → Review and Apply

2. Click Recover account.

3. Enter your purchase email.

4. Click Send link.

5. Check your email for a secure password link.

You can request a new link every 2 minutes.

Do I need to manually start scans with Auto Scan?
No. Once you enable automation and save your settings, scans run automatically according to your chosen interval. No manual intervention is required.

What happens if I don’t enable automation?
Scheduled scans will not run. Automation must be turned ON for Auto Scan to function. You can still run manual scans from the Link Scanner tab.

Can I change the scan interval after saving settings?
Yes. You can return to the Auto Scan tab anytime to adjust the interval, scope, batch limits, or any other setting. Just save again after making changes.

Will Auto Scan slow down my website?
No. Auto Scan processes links in batches with configurable limits. You can adjust batch size and request timeout to minimize server load.

How do I know if broken links were found?
You can check the broken links report in the dashboard. If you enabled email alerts, you will also receive notifications when broken links are detected.

Does Auto Scan store past scan results?
Yes. Scan history is stored so you can see when previous scans ran and review their results. The latest scan snapshot is also kept for quick reference.

Can I run manual scans while Auto Scan is enabled?
Absolutely. Auto Scan does not prevent you from running manual scans anytime you want. Both can work alongside each other.

What if I don’t want to scan everything automatically?
You can limit the scan scope to specific post types (e.g., only Pages, not Posts). This gives you control over exactly what content is scanned automatically.

Choose Individual if you manage one website.

Good for:

– A small business website.

– A personal blog.

– A single ecommerce store.

– A personal brand website.

Includes SEO Repair Kit tools for 1 production website.

Do I need technical knowledge to use Link Scan?
No. Link Scan is built for non-technical users and requires no coding or advanced setup. Just click buttons and follow the on-screen instructions.

Does Link Scan check both internal and external links?
Yes. It scans and reports both internal links (within your website) and external links (to other websites).

Will broken links affect my SEO?
Yes. Broken links can negatively impact search engine rankings and user experience. Fixing them helps maintain strong SEO performance.

How long does a scan take?
Scan time depends on your site size. Small sites (under 100 links) take seconds. Large sites with thousands of links may take a few minutes.

How often should I run a scan?
You can run scans anytime, but it’s recommended to scan regularly — especially after updating content or publishing new pages. A weekly manual scan is a good habit.

Can I fix links directly from the report?
Absolutely. The report allows you to quickly edit, update, or redirect broken links in just a few clicks.

What HTTP status codes are considered broken?
Link Scan marks any link returning an error code as broken, including:

• 404 (Not Found)
• 403 (Forbidden)
• 500 (Internal Server Error)
• 502 (Bad Gateway)
• Any other error outside the 200-399 range

What is the difference between fixing and redirecting a link?

• Fixing – You edit the content and change the URL to a working address
• Redirecting – You keep the content as-is but create a redirect that sends visitors from the broken URL to a working URL

Can I scan only specific content types?
Yes. Use the Select Post Type dropdown to focus scans on Posts, Pages, or custom post types.

Will scanning slow down my website?
No. Link Scan processes links in batches and has minimal impact on site performance.

What is the CSV export for?
The CSV export allows you to share broken link reports with team members, track fixes in a spreadsheet, or maintain audit records for client reporting.

What if no broken links are found?
That’s good news! The table will be empty, and you’ll see 0 broken links in the overview cards.

What happens when I delete a post with Smart Redirects enabled?
Smart Redirects automatically creates a 301 redirect from the deleted post URL to its post type archive page (e.g., /blog/deleted-post/ → /blog/). Visitors never see a 404 error.

Can Smart Redirects work with pages?
Yes, but only if your theme has a page archive page. Most WordPress themes do NOT have page archives by default. If page archive doesn’t exist, Smart Redirects cannot be enabled for pages.

What if my post type doesn’t have an archive?
Post types without archive pages cannot use Smart Redirects. You’ll need to create manual redirects for those content types instead.

What type of redirect does Smart Redirects use?
Smart Redirects uses 301 (Permanent) redirects. This is the SEO-friendly redirect type that passes link equity (PageRank) to the target URL.

Can I manually override a Smart Redirect?
Yes. You have several options:

• Toggle the redirect to Inactive (pauses it)
• Delete the redirect record entirely
• Create a manual redirect in Redirection Manager that overrides it
• Edit the target URL in Redirection Manager

Will Smart Redirects redirect to the exact archive page of the deleted post?
Yes. If you delete a post in the “News” category, it redirects to the main news archive (/news/), not to a category-specific archive.

Do Smart Redirects work for posts that were deleted before enabling the feature?
No. Smart Redirects only works for URLs that become broken AFTER the feature is enabled. Already-deleted posts will not automatically get redirects.

How do I stop Smart Redirects from creating a specific redirect?
Go to the Generated Redirects table, find that redirect, and either:

• Toggle its status to Inactive (keeps record but stops redirect)
• Delete the redirect record (permanently removes it)

Can I see how many people use a Smart Redirect?
Yes. Go to SEO Repair Kit → Redirection and view the hit count column for each redirect. This shows how many times each Smart Redirect has been used.

What happens to Smart Redirects if I uninstall the plugin?
Smart Redirects are stored in your WordPress database. If you uninstall the plugin, the redirects will stop working. If you reinstall, they should work again (unless you chose to delete all data during uninstall).

Can I use Smart Redirects AND manual redirects for the same URL?
Yes, but the redirect that executes first (usually the most specific match) will take priority. It’s best to avoid duplicate redirects.

What is the difference between Reset All Records and Reset by Post Type?

• Reset All Records – Deletes EVERY Smart Redirect for ALL post types
• Reset by Post Type – Deletes Smart Redirects for only ONE specific post type (e.g., only Posts, leaving Products untouched)

Will resetting records delete the redirects?
Yes. Reset actions permanently delete Smart Redirect records AND remove the corresponding redirects from Redirection Manager. These actions cannot be undone.

Does Smart Redirects work with custom post types?
Yes, as long as the custom post type has has_archive set to true when it was registered. Most custom post types support archives.

What should I do if my archive page URL changes?
If you change your archive page URL (e.g., from /blog/ to /news/), existing Smart Redirects will still point to the old URL. You’ll need to either:

• Reset and regenerate redirects
• Manually update target URLs in Redirection Manager

How to Ask SEO AI Assistant a Question

SEO AI Assistant lets you enter an SEO or WordPress-related question and receive guidance directly inside the SEO Repair Kit dashboard.

In this guide

• Open SEO AI Assistant
• Check the assistant status
• Enter a question
• Add useful context
• Send your question
• Review the response
• Ask a follow-up question
• When to contact support

Open SEO AI Assistant

Go to:

SEO Repair Kit → AI Chatbot

The Chat Console appears on the main screen.

Check the Assistant Status

Look at the status displayed near the top-right of the Chat Console.

In the current interface, the status appears as:

Licensed & Active

This indicates the current status of the SEO AI Assistant on the website.

Enter Your SEO Question

At the bottom of the Chat Console, find the field:

Type your SEO question here…

Click inside the field and enter your question.

Ask One Focused Question

Keep each question focused on one problem.

For example, instead of asking:

My pages aren’t indexing, my website is slow, I have broken links, and I also need schema. What should I do?

separate these into individual questions.

For example:

Why might my product pages not be getting indexed?

Then address the next issue separately.

Provide Relevant Context

Include information that helps explain your situation.

Useful context can include:

• CMS
• Relevant plugin
• Theme
• Feature involved
• What you expected to happen
• What actually happened
• A short error message where relevant

For example:

I’m using WordPress. I created a 301 redirect, but the old URL is still returning a 404. What should I check?

This gives the assistant more useful context than simply asking:

Why isn’t my redirect working?

Send Your Question

After entering the question, use the send arrow beside the input field.

SEO AI Assistant will process the question and display its response in the Chat Console.

Review the Answer

Read the response carefully before applying changes to your website.

For technical SEO settings—particularly redirects, indexing directives, robots configuration, or schema—make sure the suggested action matches your actual website configuration.

Ask a Follow-Up Question

If you need clarification, continue the conversation with a focused follow-up.

For example:

Where can I find this setting in SEO Repair Kit?

or:

Can you explain step 2 in simpler terms?

This lets you continue working through the same issue without starting from the beginning.

Do Not Share Sensitive Credentials

Do not enter information such as:

• Passwords
• API keys
• Access tokens
• Private login credentials

The interface itself reminds users not to share sensitive credentials.

When to Contact Support

If the issue requires account-specific or product-specific assistance that the AI conversation does not resolve, click:

Contact Support

from the right side of the page.

How to Manage Image SEO

The Image SEO tab connects Meta Manager with SEO Repair Kit’s Image Alt Missing feature.

It helps you identify images that may require alternative-text review.

Open Image SEO

Go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Meta Manager → Image SEO

Understand the Image Alt Missing Summary

The Image SEO screen provides a summary card for Image Alt Missing.

It displays:

Images Missing Alt

Shows the number of detected images currently missing alternative text.

Total Images

Shows the total number of images included in the current summary.

Check Missing Alt Text

Click:

Check Missing Alt Text

SEO Repair Kit opens the dedicated Image Alt Missing workflow.

Because Image Alt Missing has its own complete workflow, detailed image review and editing should be documented separately rather than duplicated inside Meta Manager.

Alt Missing Documentation →

Best practice: Alternative text should describe the purpose or meaningful content of an image. Do not add keywords simply to fill the field, and do not force descriptive alt text onto purely decorative images.

KeyTrack Overview

SEO Repair Kit’s KeyTrack brings Google Search Console performance data into your WordPress dashboard.

It helps you monitor how your website performs in Google Search, including clicks, impressions, click-through rate, average position, page performance, search queries, and keyword performance tracking.

Where Does KeyTrack Get Its Data?

KeyTrack uses Google Search Console data through the Google Site Kit integration.

You can see Source: Google Search Console at the bottom of the performance tables.

Important: Google Site Kit must be installed, activated, and properly configured before KeyTrack can display Search Console performance data.

Next Step

If you have not connected Google Site Kit yet, continue with:

Set Up KeyTrack with Google Site Kit →

After logging in, you will see your SEO Repair Kit account dashboard.

It shows:

– Website Seats: How many websites are connected and how many your plan allows.

– Feature Access: The SEO tools included in your plan.

– Active Licenses: How many license keys are active.

– Plugin Download: Link to download the SEO Repair Kit plugin.

Image Alt Text Manager Overview

SEO Repair Kit’s Image Alt Text Manager helps you find images with missing alt text and review images that already have alt text.

In this guide

• How to access Image Alt Text Manager
• Understand image statistics
• Find images with missing alt text
• Review images with alt text
• Add alt text
• Understand the Health Score
• Image alt text best practices

How to Access Image Alt Text Manager

From your WordPress dashboard, go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Image Alt Missing

The Image Alt Text Manager screen will open.

Image Alt Text Summary

At the top of the page, you can see four summary cards:

At the top of the Image Library, you can use three filters:

• All
• Missing Alt
• Has Alt

View Missing Alt Images

Click:

Missing Alt

The Image Library will display images that are currently missing alt text.

Images without alt text show an Add Alt Text button.

1. Open the Notifications Tab

In your WordPress Dashboard, go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Links Manager → Notifications

The Notifications screen contains two sections:

• Scan Run History
• Notification History

View Scan Run History

The Scan Run History section displays your recent manual and scheduled link scans.

SEO Repair Kit keeps the last 7 manual and scheduled scan runs. Older records are pruned automatically.

Each scan record can include:

Run Time — Shows when the scan was performed.

Trigger — Shows whether the scan was started manually or through the automatic scan schedule.

Scope — Shows which link scope was used for the scan.

Coverage — Shows which website content was included.

Scanned Posts — Shows the number of content items processed.

Total Links — Shows the total number of links checked.

Broken Links — Shows how many broken links were found.

Email Sent — Shows whether an email alert was sent for the scan.

Post Type Breakdown — Shows information about the post types included in the scan.

Note: If you see No scan history yet, run a scan from the Auto Scan tab. The scan history will appear here after applicable scan activity is recorded.

View Notification History

The Notification History section shows email notifications previously sent for broken-link alerts.

Each notification record can include:

Sent At — Shows when the email notification was sent.

Subject — Shows the subject of the notification email.

Recipients — Shows the email address or addresses that received the alert.

Broken Links — Shows the number of broken links associated with the notification.

Post Type Breakdown — Shows which content types were involved.

Export — Provides the available option for exporting notification information.

Why Is My Notification History Empty?

If you see:

No alert history yet

it means no applicable broken-link email alert has been recorded.

For alerts to be sent, make sure Email Alerts are enabled under:

SEO Repair Kit → Links Manager → Auto Scan

and that a valid recipient email address has been added.

Alerts are sent when broken links are found and email alerts are enabled.

Set Up Automatic Link Scanning →

Reset Scan or Notification History

Both history sections include a Reset Records button.

[IMAGE 4: Reset Records buttons highlighted in both sections]

To clear a history section, click its corresponding Reset Records button.

Use the button in Scan Run History to reset scan records, or the button in Notification History to reset notification records.

Important: Reset only the history you no longer need. The two Reset Records buttons apply to their respective sections.

What’s the Difference Between Scan Run History and Notification History?

Scan Run History records link scan activity, including manual and scheduled scans.

Notification History records email alerts that were sent when broken links were found.

This means a scan can appear in Scan Run History without necessarily creating a record in Notification History, such as when no broken-link email alert is sent.

• Include short error messages
• Explain expected and actual behavior
• Avoid sensitive information
• Example questions

Ask One Focused Question at a Time

The interface recommends:

Ask one focused question at a time.

Instead of combining unrelated SEO issues, handle them separately.

Less focused

My website is slow, pages aren’t indexed, redirects don’t work, and I need schema.

More focused

My WordPress product pages are not being indexed. What should I check first?

Once that issue is addressed, move to the next problem.

Share Relevant Context

The interface recommends sharing context such as:

• CMS
• Plugin
• Theme

For example:

I’m using WordPress with SEO Repair Kit. I created a redirect from an old page to a new page, but the source URL still returns a 404.

This provides useful context about both the environment and the problem.

Paste Short Error Snippets When Relevant

If WordPress or another tool displays an error, include the relevant part of that error in your question.

For example:

My sitemap returns a 404 error. What should I check?

If an error message is available, add the short relevant portion.

Avoid pasting large amounts of unrelated logs.

Explain What You Expected

For troubleshooting questions, explain:

What you expected → What actually happened

For example:

I expected /old-page/ to redirect to /new-page/, but /old-page/ still returns a 404.

This makes the problem easier to understand.

Use Specific Questions

Instead of:

Help with SEO.

try:

How should I handle a page that permanently moved to a new URL?

Instead of:

My schema doesn’t work.

try:

I added FAQ schema to a WordPress page. What should I check if it isn’t being detected?

Example Questions

You can use questions such as:

Indexing

Why might my WordPress page not be indexed?

Redirects

I permanently moved a page to a new URL. Which redirect should I use?

Broken Links

I found a broken internal link. Should I update the link or create a redirect?

Schema

How should I structure FAQ schema for this page?

Performance

What should I check when render-blocking resources are affecting page performance?

Sitemaps

My sitemap is available but a page isn’t appearing in it. What should I check?

Protect Sensitive Information

Provide enough context to explain the problem, but do not provide credentials.

Avoid sharing:

• Passwords
• API secrets
• Private tokens
• Login credentials

How to Set Up Smart Redirects for Broken Internal Links

Smart Redirects helps prevent eligible broken internal singular URLs from leaving visitors on a 404 page. When enabled for a supported post type, SEO Repair Kit can create a 301 redirect from the broken URL to that post type’s archive page.

In this guide

• How Smart Redirects work
• Enabling Smart Redirect automation
• Choosing post types
• Saving settings
• Reviewing Smart Redirect records
• Filtering records
• Managing generated redirects
• Resetting Smart Redirect records
• Opening the Redirection Manager

Open Smart Redirects

Go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Links Manager → Smart Redirects

How Smart Redirects Work

Smart Redirects are designed for eligible broken internal singular pages.

For example:

/case-studies/broken-slug/ → /case-studies/

/blog/deleted-post/ → /blog/

/products/old-item/ → /products/

Instead of sending the visitor to a missing page, the generated 301 redirect sends them to the relevant post-type archive.

Smart Redirects only apply where the feature can determine an appropriate archive destination.

Enable Smart Redirect Automation

Select:

Enable Smart Redirect automation

Then choose the post types for which you want this behavior enabled.

Choose Post Types

Each available post type is displayed separately.

Where an archive is available, the interface shows the destination that can be used.

Some post types may display:

No archive page

These cannot be enabled for this Smart Redirect behavior because there is no applicable archive destination.

Enable only the post types for which automatic archive redirects make sense.

Save Smart Redirect Settings

After choosing the required post types, click:

Save Settings

SEO Repair Kit will use the saved configuration when processing eligible broken internal links.

Smart Redirect Records

Generated Smart Redirects appear under Smart Redirect Records.

This area lets you review and manage records created by the feature.

Available information includes:

• Post Type
• Source URL
• Redirects To
• Status
• Actions
• Created

Filter Smart Redirect Records

Use the filters to narrow the list by:

• Post type
• Status

Click Filter to apply your selection.

Click Reset to clear the filters.

Manage Smart Redirect Records

Depending on the available action for a record, you can review or manage its status from the records table.

Generated redirects are created as 301 (permanent) redirects and can also be managed through SEO Repair Kit’s Redirection Manager.

Manage All Redirects

Click Manage All Redirects to open the main Redirection Manager.

Use the Redirection Manager when you need broader control over redirects beyond Smart Redirect automation.

Reset Smart Redirect Records

The interface provides reset options including:

Reset All Smart Records

and

Reset This Post Type

Use these actions carefully because they affect stored Smart Redirect records

How to Create and Manage Redirects

The Redirections tab lets you create new URL redirects and manage existing redirect rules.

It also provides analytics so you can review redirect activity.

In this guide

• Open Redirections
• Understand Redirect Analytics
• Create a new redirect
• Enter the Source URL
• Enter the Target URL
• Select a Redirect Type
• Use Regular Expression
• Review existing redirects
• Edit or delete a redirect
• Reset redirect hits
• Use bulk actions

Open Redirections

Go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Redirection → Redirections

Understand Redirect Analytics

At the top of the page, review Redirect Analytics.

Four summary cards are displayed.

Total Hits

Shows the total number of recorded hits across your redirects.

Total Redirections

Shows the total number of redirect rules.

Active Redirections

Shows the number of redirects currently marked as active.

Most Hit Redirect

Shows the redirect with the highest recorded hit activity.

Click Refresh when you want to reload the displayed analytics.

If the full Redirections screenshot already shows these cards clearly, you do not need a separate screenshot here.

Add a New Redirection

Find:

Add New Redirection

To create a redirect, you need to define where the request comes from and where it should go.

Enter the Source URL

In Source URL, enter the URL you want to redirect from.

For example:

/old-page/

The Source URL represents the old, changed, or otherwise redirected location.

Enter the Target URL

In Target URL, enter the destination to which the visitor should be redirected.

For example:

/new-page/

Make sure the destination is relevant to the original URL and is the location you actually want visitors to reach.

Select the Redirect Type

Open the Redirect Type dropdown and choose the appropriate redirect type.

The screenshot shows:

301 – Moved Permanently

A 301 redirect is intended for a URL that has permanently moved to a new destination.

Important: Your current screenshot only confirms 301 – Moved Permanently as a visible selection. If you want the documentation to explain every redirect type available in the dropdown, take one screenshot with the dropdown open so we can document the exact available options without guessing.

Use Regular Expression

The form also provides:

Use Regular Expression

This option is intended for redirect rules that use a regular-expression pattern instead of a simple URL match.

For a normal one-to-one redirect such as:

/old-page/ → /new-page/

leave this option disabled.

Use regular expressions only when the redirect rule intentionally requires pattern matching.

Create the Redirect

After entering the required information:

1. Enter the Source URL.
2. Enter the Target URL.
3. Select the appropriate Redirect Type.
4. Enable Use Regular Expression only when required.
5. Click Add Redirection.

The new redirect is then added to the Existing Redirections area.

Understand Existing Redirections

The Existing Redirections table displays your current redirect rules.

The table includes:

Source URL

The URL from which the redirect starts.

Target URL

The destination URL.

Type

Shows the redirect type, such as 301.

Status

Shows the current status of the redirect.

Your screenshot shows Active.

Source

Shows how the redirect was created.

For example, the screenshot contains MANUAL for a manually created redirect.

Hits

Shows the number of recorded times the redirect has been triggered.

Actions

Provides management actions for the redirect.

The current interface includes:

• Edit
• Delete
• Reset Hits

Edit a Redirect

Click Edit beside the redirect you want to change.

Review the Source URL, Target URL, redirect type, and other available settings carefully before saving your changes.

After editing a redirect, test the Source URL again to confirm it leads to the intended destination.

Delete a Redirect

Click Delete when a redirect rule is no longer required.

Important: Deleting the redirect means requests to that Source URL will no longer be handled by that redirect rule.

Reset Hits for a Redirect

Click Reset Hits to reset the recorded hit count for an individual redirect.

This affects the hit statistics; it does not mean the redirect itself has been deleted.

Reset All Hits

Use:

Reset All Hits

to reset hit counts across the redirect records.

Use this carefully if historical hit information is important for your reporting.

Manage Multiple Redirects

Use the checkboxes in Existing Redirections to select records.

Then use:

Bulk Actions → Apply

to perform an available bulk operation on the selected records.

Review your selection before applying a bulk action.

Test Your Redirect

After creating or modifying a redirect:

1. Open the Source URL.
2. Confirm that it redirects.
3. Confirm that the correct Target URL opens.
4. Return to Redirection if you need to review the recorded hit information.

In this guide

• Find AI Bot Access Control
• Understand checked and unchecked bots
• Select individual bots
• Select or deselect all bots
• Save your configuration

Open AI Bot Access Control

Go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Bot Manager → LLMs.txt

Find:

AI Bot Access Control

Understand Bot Access

Each listed bot has a checkbox.

The interface explains that unchecked bots are blocked through server-level checks and robots.txt rules.

It also states that bots not listed in this section are allowed by default.

Therefore, review the available bots carefully according to how you want the site configured.

Select Individual AI Bots

Check the box beside a bot you want enabled according to Bot Manager’s access-control workflow.

The current interface lists:

• ChatGPT (GPTBot)
• ChatGPT User
• Claude (Anthropic)
• Google Bard/Gemini
• Perplexity AI
• Bing Chat/Copilot
• You.com
• Character.AI
• CCBot (Common Crawl)

Deselect All Bots

The section provides:

Deselect All

Use this when you intentionally want to clear all currently selected AI bot options.

Review the note below the bot list before doing so because unchecked bots are subject to the blocking behavior described by the interface.

Save the Configuration

After changing bot access:

1. Review the selected bots.
2. Configure the content you want included in LLMs.txt.
3. Click Save Settings.
4. Generate LLMs.txt again if the file needs to reflect the updated configuration.

How to Configure Spam Rules

Spam Rules determine how SEO Repair Kit evaluates scanned Google results and assigns risk scores.

In this guide

• Rules Sync Status
• Language Rules
• Expected Spam Languages
• Website Allowed Languages
• Language Mismatch Score
• Spam Keyword Rules
• Custom Blocked Keywords
• URL Pattern Rules
• Score Thresholds
• Scoring Preview
• Saving and syncing rules

Open Spam Rules

Go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Spam Monitor → Spam Rules

Check Rules Sync Status

At the top, Rules Sync Status shows whether your Spam Rules are synchronized.

The interface also provides:

• Last Synced
• Rules Hash
• Sync Rules Now
• Save All Rules

Use Sync Rules Now when you need to run the available rules synchronization action.

Use Save All Rules after changing Spam Rules.

Configure Language Rules

The Language Rules section helps identify Google results whose detected language does not match your expected website language configuration.

Expected Spam Languages

Use Expected Spam Languages to configure languages used by this detection workflow.

The interface provides:

Browse languages…

for selecting languages.

Website Allowed Languages

Use Website Allowed Languages for languages that are valid for your website.

For example, if your website’s normal content is English, English can be configured as an allowed language.

Select the legitimate languages used by your website rather than marking them as unexpected.

Language Mismatch Score

Language Mismatch Score controls the score contribution when the language mismatch rule is triggered.

The current screenshot shows a value of:

45

This value is configurable, so documentation should not treat 45 as a permanent fixed value.

Flag Unexpected Languages

Enable Flag Unexpected Languages when you want non-allowed detected languages to contribute to spam evaluation according to the configured rule.

Configure Spam Keyword Rules

The Spam Keyword Rules section provides category-based keyword detection in titles, snippets, and URLs.

The current interface includes categories such as:

• Gambling
• Adult Content
• Pharma Spam
• Vape / Tobacco / Shisha
• Counterfeit / Luxury
• JP / CN Ecommerce Spam

Each category contains predefined keyword rules.

Enable the categories you want Spam Monitor to check.

Review Category Keywords

Use View defaults where available to review the predefined keywords associated with a category.

This helps you understand what the category is designed to detect before enabling or changing related rules.

Add Custom Blocked Keywords

Use:

Custom Blocked Keywords

to add site-specific keywords you want the scanner to consider.

The current interface instructs:

One keyword per line

For example, if your site has a known spam pattern not adequately covered by the predefined categories, its relevant terms can be added here.

Do not add legitimate business terms simply because they sometimes appear in spam; overly broad keywords can increase false positives.

Spam Keyword Score

Spam Keyword Score controls the score contribution associated with keyword detection.

The current screenshot shows:

35

Again, this is configurable rather than a universal fixed value.

Configure URL Pattern Rules

The URL Pattern Rules section detects suspicious URL slugs and injected URL patterns in Google results.

The current interface provides:

Detect Fake Product URLs

Enable this rule when you want Spam Monitor to evaluate fake-product-style URL patterns.

Detect Suspicious URL Slugs

Enable this rule when suspicious URL slug detection should be included.

Add Blocked URL Patterns

Use:

Blocked URL Patterns

to enter URL patterns that should be checked.

The interface states:

One per line. Use /regex/ or plain substring.

This allows custom suspicious URL patterns to be added according to the website’s needs.

URL Pattern Score

URL Pattern Score controls the risk-score contribution associated with URL pattern detection.

The current screenshot shows:

35

Configure Score Thresholds

The Score Thresholds section determines how raw scores map to risk levels.

The current configuration shown is:

• Clean: 0–30
• Suspicious: 31–60
• Spam: 61–80
• Critical: 81–100

Editable fields include:

• Clean Max
• Suspicious Max
• Spam From
• Critical From

Review these carefully before changing them because they affect how scan results are classified.

Understand the Scoring Preview

The Scoring Preview provides a live example of how enabled rules contribute to a result’s score.

For example, the current screen demonstrates contributions from:

• Mismatch hit
• Pharma keyword
• Suspicious slug

and then calculates a:

Final score

The interface caps the displayed risk score at 100.

This preview helps you understand how several rule matches can combine into a higher risk classification.

Save Spam Rules

After making changes, click:

Save All Rules

The interface indicates that rules are saved in WordPress and synchronized to the Python SERP engine.

Reset Spam Rules

Use:

Reset Spam Rules

only when you intentionally want to reset the configured Spam Rules.

Review your custom languages, keywords, patterns, scores, and thresholds before resetting.
