SEO Writing Assistant SEMrush Custom Fields vs StoryChief

The SEMrush SEO Writing Assistant plugin read only from post title and post content elements for the real time check. This lightweight plugin allows you to use an arbitrary value for that check in addition to those values. So, if you are using some kind of a page builders, field managers and so on, you have only to define a constant in your wp_config.php file and eventually to write a little bit of JavaScript code in order to specify which fields. Note that the plugin don’t replace SEMrush SEO Writing Assistant but is intended to be used together. Usage Once the plugin is activated you can configure it by defining following constants in your wp-config.php: SWA_SEMRUSH_CUSTOM_FIELDS_PLUGIN_AUTOENABLE Automatically enable use of additional text value for SEMrush check. The default value is false. This is the only configuration you have to do in order to have the plugin feature working. For example: define( 'SWA_SEMRUSH_CUSTOM_FIELDS_PLUGIN_AUTOENABLE', true ); SWA_SEMRUSH_CUSTOM_FIELDS_PLUGIN_INTERVAL Allows to change the interval between automatic updates of the text used by SEMrush checks. The default value is 5 seconds.For example: define( 'SWA_SEMRUSH_CUSTOM_FIELDS_PLUGIN_INTERVAL', 10 ); You can alernatavely control the plugins programmatically, by using semrush_seo_writing_assistant_post_types (optional) filter and SeoWritingAssistantSEMrushCustomFields JavaScript object (see below).
