Working on 1.0 release (release 18 May)

At this moment I am working on a big update, adding a solution for the favicon problem Mike said in his post MikeJones, also adding Pages (extension) support, editing robots.txt support and a greath SEO health-check page in the admin panel. It's going to be a great update! From then on the extension will leave the beta phase!

Now, my question is, when you see the following health-checks. Do you miss something? Let me know what you think about this update! 🙂

    I tried to install the repository from the github, but after clearing the cache on the site, the admin panel files were deleted (not extensions)

      JasperVriends or at least the possibility to specify a default social image, otherwise the favicon will be taken, and it will not look good 🙂

      EDIT: just saw the check "social media image", so I guess the feature is already there?

        pxnji Hmm, I'm not very sure if that's good, as you cannot check the resolution of the image that's in the discussion. The good thing is that you can now set a default social media image in the new version, so forum owners are ensured that the forum (posts) will always have a quality image on social media.

        But I may make an extra option to disable the social media image on topics. You can create an issue on GitHub as request https://github.com/v17development/flarum-seo/issues

        1.0 release

        The first official stable release is out! After months of beta testing, the results look promising!

        Added this release:

        • SEO page added to the dashboard
        • Health check
        • Pages (extension is now supported)
        • SEO tips and tricks
        • Social media image now supported (fallback to favicon)
        • You are now able to edit the robots.txt
        • Reminder every two months to check the SEO settings

        Let me know if you have questions, ideas or issues!

        Installation

        If you like to install this extension, run the following command:

        composer require v17development/flarum-seo

        Updating

        Run the following command on your server to update the plugin

        composer update v17development/flarum-seo

          I'm glad you updated this plugin, which I think is very important for flarum. Thank you so much.

          There's something I'm curious about. I noticed that the tags didn't produce a dynamic for

          <head> 
          <title>tag name-forum title</title>
          </head>

          But this is not the case for the pages.

            @JasperVriends I know this extension adds some rows to the settings table, but whilst troubleshooting an issue with another extension, I removed these entries manually from the database. I'm now getting errors on this extension (I think) because the rows no longer exist in the database, but I can't seem to get them back - even by fully removing and re-adding the extension. Any thoughts ?
            Thanks
