Frequently Asked Questions
Where is SEO Possibilities in WordPress?
SEO Booster → SEO Possibilities (`admin.php?page=sb2_seo_issues`).
How do issues get into the list?
Per-URL analysis from the SEO Booster metabox, scheduled scans of GSC-discovered URLs, bulk SEO analysis from the post list, and sitewide analysis for global checks.
How many checks run per URL?
About 40 grouped evaluations across meta, content, images, links, duplicate meta, and GSC opportunities. Full-page analysis (SEO review entire page) unlocks technical head-tag, link-status, and accessibility checks. GSC-connected checks add indexing inspection and keyword-driven opportunities.
What severities exist?
Critical, High, Medium, and Low. The filter dropdown lists all four plus All Severities.
Can I ignore issues I will not fix?
Yes. Ignore Temporarily or Ignore Permanently via row actions or bulk actions. Ignored items can be filtered back in with the Status dropdown.
Is SEO Possibilities different from the SEO metabox?
The metabox shows analysis for one page while editing. SEO Possibilities is the sitewide prioritized queue across all analyzed URLs.
Does it require Google Search Console?
Core on-page checks work without GSC. GSC-driven possibilities (CTR, cannibalization, etc.) appear when Search Console is connected and data exists.
