See why your site isn't showing up in Google and AI answers, approve fixes from wp-admin, and check afterwards whether they worked.

== Description ==

Growth Radar watches how your site does in search engines and AI assistants, then suggests specific changes for your pages. Here you read each suggestion next to what the page says now, approve the ones you like, and undo any of them later. Nothing changes on your site until you approve it, unless you turn on automatic changes in your Growth Radar account.

If you use Yoast SEO or Rank Math, approved titles and descriptions are saved into that plugin, so you see them in its box on the page and can keep editing them there. If you edit one yourself afterwards, your version stays. Without an SEO plugin, Growth Radar prints the tags itself. With All in One SEO, SEOPress, The SEO Framework or Slim SEO, it leaves your titles and descriptions alone and suggests only the site-wide changes.

It can also publish an llms.txt file and your crawler rules, tell search engines when you publish a new page, and show you which AI crawlers are reading the site.

= External service =

This plugin is a client for the Growth Radar service at https://growthradar.app and does nothing useful without an account. Once you connect a site:

* Your page URLs, titles, SEO fields, an excerpt of each page, and basic site details (WordPress version, theme, active SEO plugin) are sent to Growth Radar, so it can write suggestions.
* A script from growthradar.app counts visits, unless you switch off visitor analytics on the settings screen. Logged-in editors are not counted.
* When a known crawler requests a page, the path, its user agent and, when the site isn't behind a CDN or proxy, its IP address are sent to Growth Radar, unless you switch off the crawler log.
* Published page URLs are sent to Growth Radar, which passes them to search engines.

Nothing is sent before you connect. See the privacy policy at https://growthradar.app/privacy and the terms at https://growthradar.app/terms.

== Installation ==

1. Upload the plugin and activate it.
2. Open Growth Radar in the wp-admin menu and choose Connect.
3. Sign in and pick the site. You'll be taken back to wp-admin.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Do I still need Yoast SEO or Rank Math? =

No, and you can keep them. When one of them is active, it stays in charge of the tags on your pages and Growth Radar only fills in its fields.

= What happens to my SEO data if I remove the plugin? =

Titles and descriptions saved into Yoast SEO or Rank Math stay there. Fields Growth Radar kept for itself are removed.

= Why are some crawler visits missing? =

A page cache that answers a request before WordPress runs also hides that visit from this plugin.

= Will visits count twice if the Growth Radar script is already in my theme? =

Yes. The plugin can't see a script pasted further down the page, so remove your copy or switch off visitor analytics on the settings screen.

= Why don't my llms.txt and robots.txt show up? =

With Plain permalinks, many servers answer those addresses before WordPress sees them. Choosing any other structure under Settings > Permalinks fixes it.
