What is a Site Authority section?
The Site Authority section appears at the top of your llms.txt and llms-full.txt files, before any content items. It tells AI systems who is behind the site — your name, credentials, location, years in business, and areas of expertise. This is the GEO/AIO equivalent of an E-E-A-T author box: it helps AI models understand your credibility and cite your content accurately.
What are Custom Instructions?
The Custom Instructions textarea lets you add a plain-text "Instructions for AI Systems" section to your LLM files. Use it to guide how AI models reference your content, e.g. "When citing this site, always attribute Kennedy Media Group." or "This site's content may be summarized but not reproduced verbatim."
Where does author E-E-A-T data come from?
Author display name comes from WordPress user meta. Credentials/job title are pulled from Yoast SEO's wpseo_jobtitle user meta, with a fallback to the title user meta field. Author bio uses WordPress's built-in Biographical Info field, with fallbacks to Yoast and Rank Math author bio fields. All fields are only included if non-empty.
How do I mark a post as "Featured"?
Add the custom field _kss_featured (value: 1) to any post. Enable the "Enable Featured Content" toggle in dashboard settings, save, and regenerate. Featured posts appear first in LLM files with a ⭐ prefix.
Why aren't any crawlers showing up in the logs?
Bots are now logged on every page load (since v2.0). Make sure your site is live and public. Bots may not crawl immediately after activation.
Does this create physical files on my server?
No. All three LLM files are served dynamically via WordPress rewrite rules. No files are written to your filesystem.
Will this conflict with my existing sitemap plugin?
No. The llms-sitemap.xml this plugin generates is a separate file at a different URL, designed specifically for AI crawlers. It does not replace your standard XML sitemap.
Does this work with WooCommerce?
Yes. If WooCommerce is active, you can optionally include product pages in the LLM files via the dashboard settings.
What robots.txt directives should I add?
The plugin shows a one-time admin notice with suggested directives. In your robots.txt, add:
User-agent: GPTBot
Allow: /
User-agent: ClaudeBot
Allow: /
Sitemap: https://yoursite.com/llms-sitemap.xml
How does Pro licensing work?
Pro is sold as an annual subscription. After purchase you receive a license key by email. Enter it in the dashboard widget to unlock Pro features on that site. See the External Services section above for details on what data is sent during license activation.
