Enable AISA for post types and taxonomies

What it is

AISA lets you choose which content types it manages — posts, pages, custom post types, and taxonomies such as categories, tags and (with WooCommerce) product categories, tags and attributes. Enabling a type means it is counted in the SEO Health score, appears in 1-Click SEO and Bulk SEO & GEO, and can be optimized. You can also control Auto SEO on publish, which runs an AI optimization automatically each time a piece of content is published.

Where to find it

AI SEO & GEO → Settings → Post Type (post types and the “Enable Auto SEO on publish” toggle), and the taxonomy options in Settings. Term-level SEO appears on category/tag edit screens once the taxonomy is enabled.

Requirements & tier

Admin access. Optimizing categories and tags (taxonomies) is a Premium capability — on Free it is part of the 25% trial. WooCommerce product taxonomies and attributes require WooCommerce. Multilingual term SEO honors WPML / Polylang, generating in each term's own language.

How to use

  1. Go to Settings → Post Type and tick the post types AISA should manage (posts, pages, your CPTs).
  2. Enable the taxonomies you want optimized (categories, tags, and product_cat / product_tag with WooCommerce).
  3. Decide on Auto SEO on publish: leave it on to optimize automatically when content is published, or turn it off (recommended in Cloud if you want to control credit use).
  4. Save. Enabled types now appear in 1-Click SEO and Bulk, and feed the SEO Health score.
  5. Edit a category or tag to set its term SEO directly, or optimize them in bulk from 1-Click / Bulk.

Questions people ask

  • Does Auto SEO on publish consume credits/tokens? Yes — each publish makes one AI call. In Cloud, disable it from Settings → Post Type if you don't want that.
  • Can I optimize categories and tags? Yes, once the taxonomy is enabled. This is a Premium capability (Free covers 25% as a trial).
  • Are WooCommerce attributes supported? Yes — product attributes (pa_*), product categories and tags can be used in templates and optimized.
  • What about multilingual sites? AISA generates term SEO in the term's own language on WPML / Polylang sites; one 1-Click run covers all languages.
  • Do custom post types work? Yes — enable them in Settings → Post Type and they are treated like posts/pages.

Troubleshooting

A post type isn't listed in 1-Click/Bulk → it isn't enabled in Settings → Post Type; tick it and save.
Categories don't show SEO fields → enable the taxonomy first; on Free it falls under the 25% trial.
Unexpected credit usage on every publish → Auto SEO on publish is on; disable it in Settings → Post Type.
Attachments counted oddly in Health → attachments are excluded from SEO post types by design.
