Publish an AI-readable llms.txt file for WooCommerce stores through PopAEO.

== Description ==

PopAEO llms.txt helps WooCommerce merchants publish an AI-readable llms.txt file from their own WordPress site.

The plugin connects WooCommerce to the PopAEO service. After the merchant configures the connection, the plugin can:

* Push a WooCommerce product catalog snapshot to PopAEO.
* Serve generated llms.txt content from the WordPress site.
* Provide a protected product catalog endpoint for PopAEO when direct WooCommerce REST API access is restricted by the host.
* Link merchants back to the PopAEO dashboard for AEO audit, optimization, analytics, and optional Pro automation.

Manual llms.txt generation is available from PopAEO after connecting the store. PopAEO Pro unlocks 24H auto updates and advanced growth strategies.

= External services =

This plugin connects to the PopAEO service at https://app.popaeo.com.

The plugin sends WooCommerce product catalog data to PopAEO when the merchant saves the plugin settings. The catalog payload may include product names, slugs, product types, published status, descriptions, prices, stock quantities, permalinks, modified dates, category names, tag names, and image URLs.

The plugin also requests generated llms.txt content from PopAEO when the public llms.txt URL is visited. Requests include the store connection ID in the URL and the configured shared secret in an HTTP authentication header.

No data is sent until a site administrator configures the PopAEO endpoint, store connection ID, and shared secret in Settings > PopAEO llms.txt.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Does this plugin require WooCommerce? =

Yes. Product catalog sync requires WooCommerce.

= Does the plugin send data automatically? =

No data is sent until a site administrator configures the PopAEO connection settings and saves the settings page.

= Why does PopAEO need a plugin? =

Some WordPress hosts block external server requests to the WooCommerce REST API. The plugin lets WordPress push catalog data to PopAEO and serve llms.txt from the merchant's own domain.

= Where is llms.txt served? =

The plugin serves llms.txt at /llms.txt when WordPress is installed at the domain root. If WordPress is installed in a subdirectory, the URL may be /wp/llms.txt or another matching subdirectory path.

= What if /llms.txt does not load after activation? =

Go to Settings > Permalinks and click Save Changes to flush rewrite rules.
