Scheduled SEO regeneration (Scheduler)
What it is
The Scheduler keeps your SEO fresh automatically: every N days it regenerates the fields you choose — SEO base (keyphrase + title + description), AI Search Context (GEO), and/or an added rotation variant — optionally only on content modified since the last run. It runs unattended, with the page closed, via a loopback worker chain.
Where to find it
AISA → Utility, in the Automation card, right after SEO data transfer / sync. Scheduled regeneration is no longer a menu item of its own: it is one card among the utilities, showing the next run, the last run and any queue still in progress. The scheduler lives in the Premium component, so in the free version the card is simply not there — no empty showcase in its place.
Requirements & tier
Scheduled regeneration is Premium-only, because it is an unattended automation that consumes AI. It requires the manage-options capability to configure, and a working provider/credits to generate. Image alt-text in the scheduler is noted as coming with the full background runner.
How to use
- Open AISA → Utility and scroll to the Automation card.
- Tick Enable scheduled regeneration and set the interval in days (7 = weekly, 30 = monthly).
- Choose what to regenerate: SEO base (overwrites with new values), AI Search Context, and/or "add a new rotation variant" (which adds a title+desc variant without touching the main value).
- Optionally keep Only contents modified since the last run on (recommended: less consumption, a freshness signal to Google).
- Press Save schedule. Use Run now (in background) to start a full run immediately without waiting for cron. Confirmations and errors appear inside the card itself, not at the top of the page, so you read the outcome where you pressed the button.
Questions people ask
- Does it run with the browser closed? Yes — a recurring cron kicks off a loopback worker chain that processes the queue unattended.
- Will SEO base overwrite my values? Yes, the SEO base option regenerates and overwrites title/description/keyphrase with new values; choose "only modified" to limit scope.
- What does the rotation-variant option do? It adds a new title+description rotation variant without changing the main value.
- Why is "only modified" recommended? It regenerates only what changed since the last run, saving credits/tokens and signalling freshness.
- Can I trigger it manually? Yes — "Run now" starts a full background run with the saved options (it consumes credits/tokens).
- Does it handle image alt-text? Not yet in the scheduler — that arrives with the complete background runner.
Troubleshooting
If the options are disabled, you are not on Premium — scheduled regeneration is Premium-only. If no run is scheduled, make sure Enable is checked and saved (the "next run" line confirms it). If "Run now" is unavailable, a run may already be in progress (queue shown). If runs don't fire, your host's cron/loopback may be restricted; "Run now" still works on demand. Each run consumes AI, so review the "only modified" option to control cost.
Note on speed: Processing time depends on two things: your AI provider's response speed and the server where the plugin runs (PHP workers, memory and hosting). A slow provider or a constrained host makes large batches take longer — use AISA Turbo and run in the background to mitigate it.
