Connects your site to Ingest Cloud: blog posts written for you are published here, with SEO meta, FAQ schema, AI meta tags and llms.txt.

== Description ==

Connect the site from your Ingest Cloud app. Once connected, the plugin:

* receives approved posts over signed REST requests (ingest-cloud/v1/publish; each signature works once), or with a WordPress application password, in which case that user's own permissions apply (drafts only without publish_posts, no editing other people's posts, no new categories without manage_categories)
* fills Rank Math and Yoast title, description and focus keyword, which are also readable and writable through /wp/v2/posts
* prints the post's FAQPage JSON-LD and nothing else (Article schema only when neither Rank Math nor Yoast is active, so it isn't printed twice; never review or rating schema)
* reports its health at ingest-cloud/v1/health for Ingest Cloud's checks
* adds a "Blog" link to your main menu when you approve it in Ingest Cloud (ingest-cloud/v1/nav-link, signed, used once; it can only link to blog. on your own domain and leaves a menu that already links there alone)
* pulls a signed bundle hourly: meta tags and JSON-LD for every page, /llms.txt, /llms-full.txt and Markdown mirrors

Only administrators (manage_options) can change its settings or disconnect it. Entering the API URL and site key by hand is under "Advanced".

On WordPress Multisite a super admin can network-activate it, or a site admin can activate it on one site.

The x-ingest-key / x-blogpilot-key headers on the health check are for ingest.blog compatibility only and open nothing else.

llms.txt is a low-cost hygiene file for AI agents and tools. It is not a ranking signal, and no plugin can guarantee placement in search or AI answers.
