Media Library Folders

Gives you the ability to adds folders and move files in the WordPress Media Library.

Not only can you create better SEO-friendly folders for your media files (instead of using WordPress' default /year/month/ URL structure), but you can also rename your uploaded files as well. However, renaming files also changed the respective media titles (which was not intended), and in my case, it messed up the media permalinks. I had to fix them by manually setting the titles back.

The SEO Framework

The fastest and only feature-complete SEO plugin that follows the guidelines and rules imposed by WordPress and search engines.

ahrefs report summary as of 2023.05.09

Though the LiteSpeed Cache plugin has been installed and the speed scores have improved, ahrefs is still reporting slow pages, site health status as well. The time to first byte is more than 1s.

Summary of changes made:

• providing missing meta descriptions (78)
  
  In order to accomplish this, I installed the Yoast SEO plugin, and to simplify the process, I used ChatGPT to generate the meta descriptions. For future similar tasks, I plan to install and test AutoGPT.
