Changelog

All notable updates to SEOcheck, newest first.

New
  • New Copy as Markdown - added a split Copy button with a dropdown action to copy the current article as Markdown (Copy as Markdown)
  • New Dedicated H1 input - added a separate Title (H1) field above the editor and integrated it into analysis, auto-save, and URL import
Improvements
  • Improved Editor toolbar controls - added underline and small-text formatting buttons, refreshed toolbar icons, and refined button placement for faster access
  • Improved H1/SEO title guidance - added checks to verify that H1 is set and to compare SEO title vs H1 wording (recommended to differ when possible)
Fixes
  • Fix Sentence variety rule consistency - aligned warning and highlighting behavior to trigger only for 3+ consecutive sentences starting with the same word

Improvements
  • Improved URL scan schema detection - now reads JSON-LD at top level and inside @graph/@included, then shows unique schema types
