42flows SEO Meta
v1.2.1 · by 42flows
Registers SEO meta fields for WordPress REST API write access. Required for 42flows content delivery.
About this plugin
42flows SEO Meta enables REST API write access to SEO meta fields for posts and pages. It auto-detects your active SEO plugin (Yoast SEO, Rank Math, or All in One SEO) and registers only the relevant meta fields with show_in_rest.
This plugin is required if you use 42flows to publish SEO-optimized content to your WordPress site. Without it, SEO titles, meta descriptions, and focus keyphrases cannot be set via the REST API.

rank_math_title,rank_math_description,rank_math_focus_keyword - All in One SEO —

Companion plugin installation and upgrades
When your site is connected to 42flows, 42flows may request that this plugin install, activate, or upgrade a companion plugin (42flows-content) that enables render-time features for posts delivered by the 42flows pipeline (schema markup, attribution footer, page-optimizer REST surface). The companion plugin is downloaded from https://42flows.com/plugins/42flows-content-latest.zip via the /wp-json/42flows/v1/install-companion REST route.
The route requires the requesting user to hold:
install_pluginsandactivate_pluginsfor fresh installs (typically Administrator role)delete_pluginsadditionally when amin_versionparameter is supplied that exceeds the currently-installed companion version, because the upgrade path deletes the existing companion folder before reinstalling
The companion zip URL is hard-coded in the plugin source — it is never user-supplied — so the route presents no SSRF surface. No installation, upgrade, or deletion occurs unless your site is connected to 42flows and the request is authenticated by an administrator-capability user.
