Installation

To install this plugin, you need to add an NPM dependency to your Strapi application.

# Or using NPM
npm install @strapi/plugin-seo

How it works

When clicking on the plugin homepage for the first time, the plugin will automatically look if a shared.seo component exists in your project. If not, the plugin will automatically create it with a sub shared.meta-social component.

If a shared.seo component already exists in your project. You might want to rename it or delete it otherwise, the plugin will not create the necessary component in order to work.

Homepage

From there you can get an overview of which content-types contains the SEO component or not. You can quickly add the SEO component to a selected content-type.

Note: By doing this, you will be redirected to the Content-Types builder on the specific content-type. You'll need to create a new component at the root of this content-type called seo using the existing component the plugin created for you: shared.seo.

Content Manager

From any content manager view for a content-type that contains the SEO component, you'll be able to see a right-side card dedicated for the SEO plugin. From there you can see a quick SEO analysis and action for you to perform (opening preview, opening complete analysis details modal).

Note: You'll need to fill your SEO component with data to be able to see the SERP preview, Social post preview and complete analysis.

Configuration

./config/plugins.js

module.exports = ({ env }) => ({
  // ...
  seo: {
    enabled: true,
  },
  // ...
});

Then, you'll need to build your admin panel:

# Using Yarn
yarn build

# Or using NPM
npm run build
