The SEO Framework

Page builders are great for if you want to style your website, and when you want to do it fast.
So from this update the Divi Builder, Visual Composer, Beaver Builder, and the Page Builder by SiteOrigin are now fully supported.
Various bugs have also been fixed, to improve your experience. One particular bugfix is related to Polylang; this bugfix should improve performance and reduce other bugs from happening as well.
The Automated and Manual description output has been improved in several ways as well.
For developers, a class has been removed. All functions within have been moved to more suitable classes. This change will reduce server resource usage and increase overall performance.

Another maintenance release for The SEO Framework 2.6 is coming right at you!
While Polylang creates Taxonomies from Pages without acknowledging it being an Archive, I have found a workaround for the Title not to show up correctly.
Also, bbPress’ Original Post within a topic is now shown correctly, although the bbPress 2.6.0 update will resolve this as well.
On special pages like the Forum page of bbPress, no more cache key conflicts will be present, this makes it a recommended update.
WPML Multilingual domains are now also fully supported. So instead of just adding a subdomain, this plugin now also takes whole new domains into consideration.
The URL generation has also been improved once more. It now contains Canonical Pagination support, and expanded Plain Permalink structure support.
And just when you thought new options were available, now you won’t be fooled again.
For developers it’s now much easier to debug, and there are also three (actually four) brand new filters.
And last but not least, 404 pages and Search Pages now have a Canonical URL, right towards your Homepage.

This update is another maintenance release. It’s highly recommended to install this update to prevent incorrect meta values.
The fix that has been applied now set at the root cause for the issues that have persisted since the release of 2.6.0, rather than later on.
I also bring you Author Descriptions. This description is pulled from the user’s profile biography input and is handled the same way as other automated descriptions.

This update is another maintenance release. This essentially means that bugs have been fixed.
Most of the bugs that have been fixed are regarding URL generation for the shortlink and relationships.
Next to that, the default “plain” permalink structure has now obtained a Canonical URL output.
A much more reliable hook has been found to be used prior to caching the query. This prevents not only an infinite redirect loop in conjunction with some plugins, but will also prevent incorrect metadata being used on some themes.

Simply put, this update fixes a few bugs. One of these bugs caused all recognized Post Types to be judged wrongfully for supporting SEO.
A very small bug with a major impact has also been fixed. This bug caused WooCommerce Shop Pages to canonicalized to the latest product.
This update also makes sure all translations of 2.6.0 and later are put into effect.
UTF-8 required languages are now correctly rendered on PHP5.3 and lower within the SEO bar, like Russian.
And for developers, the URL generation has been slightly refactored. With more reliable and lighter variables being used throughout the generation.
