3-step setup

  1. 1

    Generate an API key in Dashboard → API Keys

    Sign into AEO Pro, open /dashboard/settings/api-keys, click "Generate new key". Copy the aeopro_ string — you'll paste it in the next step. Free plan ships with 100 calls/hour, plenty for a single WordPress site.

  2. 2

    Drop this snippet into your theme's functions.php (or as an mu-plugin)

    Once saved, WordPress will inject AEO-Pro-generated Article / FAQPage / BreadcrumbList JSON-LD into every singular post + page <head>. Tip: keep it in mu-plugins so theme updates don't blow it away.

    Code samplephp · mu-plugin
    <?php
/**
 * Plugin Name: AEO Pro Schema Injector
 * Description: Injects Article / FAQPage / BreadcrumbList JSON-LD via AEO Pro REST API.
 */
if (!defined('ABSPATH')) exit;

add_action('wp_head', function () {
  if (!is_singular()) return;
  $cache_key = 'aeopro_schema_' . get_the_ID();
  $cached    = get_transient($cache_key);
  if ($cached === false) {
    $resp = wp_remote_post('https://www.aeo-pro.app/api/v1/schema/generate', [
      'headers' => [
        'Authorization' => 'Bearer ' . AEOPRO_API_KEY, // wp-config.php
        'Content-Type'  => 'application/json',
      ],
      'body' => wp_json_encode([
        'url'   => get_permalink(),
        'types' => ['Article', 'FAQPage', 'BreadcrumbList'],
      ]),
      'timeout' => 6,
    ]);
    if (is_wp_error($resp)) return;
    $cached = wp_remote_retrieve_body($resp);
    set_transient($cache_key, $cached, HOUR_IN_SECONDS);
  }
  echo $cached;
}, 5);
  3. 3

    Enable llms.txt + AI-bot allowlist sync

    Add AEOPRO_API_KEY to wp-config.php, then go to AEO Pro Dashboard → Sites → Add Site and register your domain. We auto-publish /llms.txt and surface robots.txt allowlist suggestions; the file refreshes within 5 minutes of any dateModified change.

    Code samplewp-config.php
    define('AEOPRO_API_KEY', 'aeopro_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx');
define('AEOPRO_AUTO_LLMS_TXT', true);
define('AEOPRO_AUTO_ROBOTS_ALLOWLIST', true);

FAQ

Do I need WooCommerce?
No. This integration works with any WordPress install. WooCommerce stores can additionally toggle Product schema auto-injection from Dashboard → Sites → WooCommerce.
Will it slow my site down?
No. Schema is cached per post via WordPress transients (1 hour), so visitors hit a local cache. The initial API call uses a 6-second timeout and skips gracefully on failure.
Can I inject schema on only some posts?
Yes. Swap is_singular() with your own predicate — e.g. has_category('aeo') or in_array(get_the_ID(), [123, 456]).
Does it support Multisite?
Yes — issue one API key per network site and write it into that site's wp-config block. AEO Pro groups multiple sites under one workspace so you can compare scores across the network.
