Built for the era of AI-powered search, it helps your content get found, read, and cited by Google, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and other generative search engines.<\/p>\n\n<p>Most businesses have FAQ pages. Very few have properly structured schema markup that AI tools can actually read and cite. CM GEO Core bridges that gap \u2014 with no coding required and no risk of losing your work.<\/p>\n\n<h4>What makes v1.1.0 different<\/h4>\n\n<p>Earlier versions of CM GEO Core deleted all your saved data when the plugin was deactivated or removed. That is no longer the case. Starting with v1.1.0, <strong>your data is fully preserved<\/strong> \u2014 deactivate, delete, reinstall, and your groups come back exactly as you left them. You are always in control.<\/p>\n\n<h4>What it does<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Injects valid <strong>FAQPage JSON-LD schema<\/strong> so Google and AI tools can read your Q&amp;A content directly<\/li>\n<li>Injects <strong>LocalBusiness schema<\/strong> with address, GPS coordinates, and service area description<\/li>\n<li>Displays a clean, collapsible <strong>FAQ accordion<\/strong> visible to human visitors<\/li>\n<li>Supports <strong>multiple page groups<\/strong> \u2014 create independent schema profiles for each page of your site<\/li>\n<li>Manage all your groups from a single <strong>dropdown selector<\/strong> \u2014 no more typing group names manually<\/li>\n<li><strong>Delete Group button<\/strong> \u2014 remove any specific group's data permanently, on demand, with confirmation<\/li>\n<li>Uses your site's <strong>favicon<\/strong> as the accordion trigger icon automatically<\/li>\n<li>Allows <strong>custom trigger label<\/strong> per group<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>How it works<\/h4>\n\n<ol>\n<li>Go to <strong>CM GEO Core<\/strong> in your WordPress admin<\/li>\n<li>Type a new group name (e.g. <code>servicepage<\/code>, <code>blogpage<\/code>, <code>homepage<\/code>) or select an existing one from the dropdown<\/li>\n<li>Click <strong>Load Group<\/strong> \u2014 existing data loads instantly; new names start with a fresh form<\/li>\n<li>Fill in your business details and FAQ pairs<\/li>\n<li>Copy the shortcode shown: <code>[cm_geo_core group=\"group-name\"]<\/code><\/li>\n<li>Paste it anywhere in your page or post<\/li>\n<li>Click <strong>Save Group<\/strong> \u2014 done, schema is live<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<h4>Why GEO, not just SEO?<\/h4>\n\n<p>GEO stands for <strong>Generative Engine Optimization<\/strong> \u2014 optimizing your content to be cited by AI-powered search tools. As Google, ChatGPT, and Perplexity increasingly answer questions directly from structured data, having proper schema markup is no longer optional. CM GEO Core makes it simple, safe, and manageable for any WordPress site owner.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Features<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Zero dependencies \u2014 no jQuery, no external libraries<\/li>\n<li>Works with any WordPress theme including Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder<\/li>\n<li>Multiple group profiles \u2014 one plugin, unlimited pages<\/li>\n<li>Group dropdown selector \u2014 quickly switch between and edit existing groups<\/li>\n<li>Delete Group button \u2014 remove a specific group's data on demand, anytime<\/li>\n<li><strong>Data-safe by design<\/strong> \u2014 deactivating or deleting the plugin never erases your saved groups<\/li>\n<li>Reinstall-friendly \u2014 your groups are automatically restored when you reactivate the plugin<\/li>\n<li>On-screen data retention reminder \u2014 always visible so you never lose work accidentally<\/li>\n<li>New group indicator \u2014 clear message when you load a group name that does not exist yet<\/li>\n<li>Validated against Google Rich Results Test<\/li>\n<li>FAQPage schema eligible for rich result snippets in Google Search<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<ol>\n<li>Upload the <code>cm-geo-core<\/code> folder to <code>\/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code><\/li>\n<li>Activate the plugin through the <strong>Plugins<\/strong> menu in WordPress<\/li>\n<li>Navigate to <strong>CM GEO Core<\/strong> in your admin sidebar<\/li>\n<li>Create your first group, fill in your data, and paste the shortcode<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<!--section=faq-->\n<dl>\n<dt id=\"does%20this%20work%20with%20page%20builders%20like%20elementor%3F\"><h3>Does this work with page builders like Elementor?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>Yes.

That was a serious risk for users who had invested time building their schema profiles. Starting with v1.1.0, your data is fully preserved in the WordPress database even if you deactivate or delete the plugin. If you ever reinstall and reactivate it, all your groups come back exactly as you left them. To permanently remove a group, simply load it and use the new Delete Group button \u2014 giving you full, intentional control.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Easier group management<\/strong>\n* New: Group dropdown selector \u2014 all your existing groups appear as suggestions when you click the Group Name field; no more typing names from memory\n* New: Delete Group button \u2014 appears next to Save Group when a real group is loaded; greyed out otherwise to prevent accidental use\n* New: New group indicator \u2014 when you type a group name that does not exist yet, a clear message tells you it is new and guides you to fill in the form\n* New: Persistent data retention notice \u2014 a friendly on-screen reminder explains that your data is safe and how to permanently delete groups if needed<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Cleaner, clearer interface<\/strong>\n* \"Page Group Slug\" renamed to \"Group Name\" \u2014 more meaningful for non-developers\n* \"Save Settings\" renamed to \"Save Group\" \u2014 reflects exactly what the button does\n* Group Shortcode banner updated to show a static placeholder format so it is always clear how to use the shortcode\n* Browser autocomplete suppressed on the Group Name field to prevent confusion between saved browser history and real group suggestions<\/p>\n\n<h4>1.0.3<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Fix: Added admin\/js\/ directory with correct JS file path for admin functionality<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>1.0.2<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Fix: Admin JS now loads correctly using CM_GEO_CORE_URL constant \u2014 Add FAQ Pair button working<\/li>\n<li>Fix: Added plugin_dir_url() constant for reliable asset URL resolution<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>1.0.1<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Fixed: Moved inline admin JavaScript to external file loaded via wp_enqueue_script()<\/li>\n<li>Fixed: Moved inline frontend CSS to wp_add_inline_style() via wp_enqueue_style()<\/li>\n<li>Updated plugin version to 1.0.1<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>1.0.0<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Initial release<\/li>\n<li>FAQPage JSON-LD schema injection<\/li>\n<li>LocalBusiness schema with address and GPS coordinates<\/li>\n<li>Multi-group profile system<\/li>\n<li>Custom accordion trigger label<\/li>\n<li>Site favicon as trigger icon<\/li>\n<li>Clean uninstall<\/li>\n<\/ul>","raw_excerpt":"Inject FAQPage and LocalBusiness schema into any page using a simple shortcode.
