Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →
WP PlugIndex currently records Bare Bones SEO version 1.0.0 as active, updated 1mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
Bare Bones SEO is built on the premise that 95% of ranking-moving SEO work happens outside plugin settings. So the plugin stays out of your way.
No telemetry. No upsells. No dashboard widgets.
Just clean control over the things a plugin should actually handle: indexing, sitemaps, titles, descriptions, schema, and redirects.
Built for developers and agencies managing sites where precision matters more than wizard-style automation.
Key Features
Global Indexation Controls: Set indexing and sitemap behavior by post type across your entire site from a single screen.
Page-Level Overrides: Title, description, JSON-LD schema, and indexing controls on every post and page. Page-level settings can only be more restrictive than site-level — never more permissive.
Bulk Page Meta Editor: Audit and edit titles, descriptions, and indexing across your entire site in a paginated AJAX grid without opening individual editors.
301 Redirect Manager: Handle moved pages and external redirects. Runs only on 404s to avoid any frontend overhead.
404 Monitor: A read-only log of 404 errors by path, paginated and capability-checked.
Health Notices: Detects common configuration problems (site set to discourage search engines, entire post types noindexed) with one-click fixes.
