SEOPress 8.4 is now available. We encourage you to update your site as soon as possible to take advantage of the latest features, improvements, and fixes.
π New β Site audit third iteration: now with AI!
Our awesome Site Audit feature just got even better with AI integration.
Now you can fix missing alt texts for your images right from the Site Audit.
Click, wait, and voila!
π FAQ & Table of Contents blocks enhanced
Our TOC block is now finally compatible with the Full Site Editing!
You can now add the TOC block to one of your template such as Single Posts to automatically display a Table of Contents to all your posts.
A significant time saving!
We have also completely recreated our FAQ block to use the editor’s native blocks, namely the Details block.
This allows us to maximize performance, obtain a graphic rendering that matches your design system defined in the FSE and more flexibility on the data.
Of course, the block still generates the FAQ schema to obtain a rich snippet in Google.
The old FAQ block is now marked as legacy.
It will continue to exist but we invite our users to switch to it.
