This update is harmonizing canonical URL’s in special situations. This includes complete support with WPML and qTranslate X, and on complex mutiple certificate MultiSite installations the canonical URL is now always correct when-and where ever you go.
Moreover, I present to you with pride, canonical URL’s have been put into a lovely breadcrumb script. Where the sitemap lacks, the breadcrumb script makes up for it, and Google will better structure your website in the search results; this also informs the visitor of the structure of your pages before entering your website.
Among these changes, a few functions have been added to the options API to cover very special cases for every developer to use.
To top it off, this plugin is now also 150% to 500% times faster on the front page! Thanks to added transient caching methods on the LD+Json scripts.
The SEO Framework Changelog – Page 17
We're continuously working on The SEO Framework plugin. This archive lists the latest changes by version.
2.4.1 – Update This Is
With a great influx of users, a great amount of use case scenarios have been revealed. This update makes sure all known scenarios are covered.
First and foremost, I want to thank everyone for their support and trust in this plugin! I also want to thank everyone who has helped me discover hard to find bugs and their ideas for improvements.
This update brings many fixes of previously undiscovered ground. Most importantly, when your theme is doing it wrong and places the blog name on the left of the title, the title will now be correctly displayed.
Terms and Taxonomies’ SEO bar is now output correctly. And many more Custom Post Types are now also automatically supported, including Jetpack Custom Content Types.
Other fixes include that trashed or private Custom Post Types are now no longer added to the Sitemap and the transient cache on enormous MultiSite networks and very large blogs built upon very old WordPress installations are now working on various post types.
Enjoy using AnsPress, that’s great! Now The SEO Framework completely supports AnsPress too!
A few other minor changes have taken place, one of them is that the SEO Bar now highlights the words too many for the description.
2.4.0 – Frequently Asked Queries
The SEO Framework is now updated to a new second dot version. This means I’ve pushed a huge update and that the API has been optimized.
This also means that there has been an overhaul on many functions. A big rework. While doing so, there were many little bugs found, all of them have been fixed.
Meanwhile, the whole plugin has been improved once more to be faster. I believe the quest for speed has been very successful and come to an end.
The Sitemaps now also adds posts and pages created by Custom Post Types, like bbPress and WooCommerce.
Moreover, Domain Mapping by Donncha is now also supported, to prevent canonical errors and easily transfer SEO value when you map domains and keep them both accessible.
Because The SEO Framework is easily manipulated through the API, feel free to write your own (free or premium) extension plugin to add options.
2.3.9 – The Littlest Things
Version 2.2.8 of The SEO Framework was optimized on one place too many, this caused the Knowledge Graph LD+Json data not to be output on the front page. This update fixes that.
Like to change your settings in Customizer often? This update takes one more variable into account so the Title and Description is what it should be.
The SEO Bar initialization is now also reworked. Your admin area is much faster now and the SEO Bar requires fewer filters to implement.
2.3.8 – Old Modern Style
This update adds a new feature for the Home Page settings, on which you can easily change the title tagline.
This update also resolves an issue with the title tag with outdated themes. This issue has previously been countered but has been wrongly transferred through optimization of the code.
Moreover, this update makes sure the sitemap generation is optimized by reducing function calls, as per Facebook standards (See note to read more about Facebook standards.).
Because of this, the post count for sitemaps has been upgraded again from 500 to 600 for both posts and pages (1200 total).
Most importantly, this plugin now listens completely to Genesis SEO values. This allows for easy migration from other SEO plugins through the SEO Data Transporter.
And last but not least, a lot of code has been revised for optimization. This makes the plugin even faster.
