Frequently asked questions
Do I need Orravo Core?
No. The kit runs fully standalone. With Core, the menu nests under Orravo and the kit appears in the shared dashboard and command palette. Without Core, you get a one-time info notice on the kit's own screens.
Does it conflict with Yoast or Rank Math?
The sitemap and meta tag responsibilities overlap. Disable Yoast's sitemap and let this kit serve /sitemap.xml, or vice versa. The kit does not write meta titles or descriptions - that is OTheme's responsibility (see inc/seo.php).
Where are 404s and redirects stored?
In two custom database tables managed by OSeo_DB. Schema version is tracked by the option oseo_db_version and upgrades run on plugins_loaded when the constant OSEO_DB_VERSION advances.
Can I export 404 logs?
Yes. The 404 Monitor screen has an Export CSV action that streams the full log via OSeo_404_Monitor::stream_csv_export().
Will the AI crawler block actually stop ChatGPT?
It sets Disallow: / for each blocked user agent in robots.txt. Reputable bots (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) honor this. Malicious or stealth scrapers do not.
What is the spike threshold for?
oseo_spike_threshold (default 50) sets the count after which the monitor surfaces a one-shot admin notice for a single URL. Use it to spot referral campaigns sending traffic to a missing page or a botnet probing your site.
