CONCILIUM IA Rank GEO

Changelog

1.4.1

  • Internationalization: all source strings are now in English, with a complete French (fr_FR) translation shipped. This makes the plugin properly translatable on translate.wordpress.org for every locale, while French users still get a fully French interface.
  • Public /llms.txt section labels (“Main pages”, “Recent posts”) are now translatable too.
  • Refreshed the .pot template and removed the obsolete en_US catalog.

1.4.0

  • Removed the entire license system. Following wp.org Guidelines 5 & 6 review feedback: the plugin no longer has any license key, activation, trial, quota, “free license” creation, heartbeat verification or detach flow. Every feature is unconditionally free and fully functional.
  • /llms.txt customization now applies unconditionally — it was previously gated behind an active license (this was the trialware issue). The custom content saved in Settings is always served, with no restriction.
  • The plugin now makes zero external network requests. All calls to www.iarankgeo.fr/api/v1/license/* removed. No data leaves your server.
  • readme: removed all external-service / license / data-transmission documentation and the API endpoint URLs (they are no longer used).
  • Frontend JSON-LD: wp_json_encode() now escapes slashes (dropped JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES) so a </script> sequence inside any value cannot break out of the script context.
  • Removed the activation welcome redirect and the dismissible license nag.

1.3.1

  • wp.org review compliance: plugin renamed to “CONCILIUM IA Rank GEO” (clear authorship by CONCILIUM DIGITAL, contributor identifier at the start of the slug)
  • All inline <script> blocks moved to enqueued JS via wp_enqueue_script + wp_add_inline_script (admin nag, /llms.txt tester, metabox counters)
  • Text domain aligned with the new slug: concilium-ia-rank-geo
  • Removed load_plugin_textdomain() call · WordPress.org auto-loads translations since WP 4.6
  • Contributors list aligned with WordPress.org account (conciliumdigital)

1.3.0

  • New: granular AI bot strategy (citation_only / allow_all / block_all / custom). Distinguishes citation bots (ChatGPT-User, PerplexityBot, OAI-SearchBot, Claude-Web, MistralAI-User · live, citing sources) from training bots (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended, Meta-ExternalAgent, Bytespider, CCBot, anthropic-ai, Applebot-Extended · scraping for model training). Default is “citation_only” · maximizes AI visibility without feeding training corpora.
  • New: per-bot custom toggle for advanced users
  • New: “Test /llms.txt” button on settings page · validates structure (H1, blockquote, H2 sections, bullet count) and shows visual report
  • robots.txt output now grouped by bot kind with explicit comments

1.2.2

  • wp.org Detailed Plugin Guidelines compliance: admin page restructured to lead with feature explanation rather than promotional content
  • Inline transparency block listing exactly what data is transmitted (and when) directly on the settings page
  • Plugin header description simplified · removed third-party brand cluster
  • Uninstall routine enriched: deletes all options, transients, scheduled events, and rewrite rules
  • readme description rewritten to lead with what the plugin does, not who it is compared to
