Getting started

Open SEO Recovery Kit in the admin sidebar (or Orravo > SEO Recovery Kit when Core is active).

The admin tabs

Seven screens, all under the parent slug orravo-seo-kit:

  • Dashboard - health summary, recent 404s, redirect count, sitemap status
  • 404 Monitor - log of missing URLs with first/last hit, count, referrer
  • Redirects - manage redirects, import a CSV
  • Sitemap - configure and inspect /sitemap.xml
  • robots.txt - edit the served content and toggle AI crawler blocks
  • Broken Links - run and review the broken-link scanner
  • Settings - cron, bot filter, spike threshold, AI crawler list

First-run checklist

  1. Open 404 Monitor. The monitor is enabled by default (oseo_404_monitor_enabled option) so log entries should start appearing as soon as someone hits a missing URL.
  2. Open Sitemap and confirm the URL count. Submit /sitemap.xml to Google Search Console.
  3. Open robots.txt. The plugin filters the robots_txt output at priority 99. If you have a hardcoded robots.txt file on disk, delete it - WordPress only filters the virtual one.
  4. Open Redirects and import any existing redirect CSV. Format: source,destination,type.
  5. Open Broken Links and click Scan now to queue a full-site crawl.

How redirects fire

OSeo_Redirects::maybe_redirect() runs early on template_redirect. If the request URL matches a source in the redirects table, the plugin sends the configured Location header with the matching status code. Supported types: 301, 302, 307, 308.
