About Minty Orange: Update Old Posts for Goog…
From the official readme · v1.6.9Description
Minty Orange brings your content optimization suggestions from mintyorange.ai straight into the WordPress editor, so you stay in control of every single change.
Start right from your Posts list: “Optimize with Minty Orange” under any published post opens it on mintyorange.ai with its URL already filled in. Once the optimization is done, this plugin shows the results as a review sidebar next to the Gutenberg editor. Every suggestion is its own card with a clear before and after preview. You decide, one by one: accept it, or skip it. Nothing is applied behind your back.
Why publishers use it
- Review, don’t replace. Most optimization tools hand you a brand new article and expect you to paste it over your old one. Minty Orange shows you each change separately, in context, and lets you keep only the ones you like.
- Your media stays put. Accepting suggestions never drops your images, galleries, embeds, affiliate links, or shortcodes. The plugin re-anchors them around the optimized text.
- One-click apply. Happy with everything? “Accept all changes” applies the whole set in one step, and it stays fully reversible.
- Undo anything. Per-change undo plus a global “Undo all”, so you can experiment freely.
What it can do
- Starts from your Posts list: “Optimize with Minty Orange” opens the post on mintyorange.ai with its URL and, if you set one in Yoast SEO or Rank Math, its focus keyword filled in.
- Auto-detects the matching optimization when you open an article, so there are no IDs to copy and paste.
- Turns rewrites, deletions, new sections, key takeaways, FAQs, comparison tables, and internal links each into its own reviewable card.
- Updates your SEO title and meta description directly in Yoast SEO, Rank Math, or All in One SEO.
- Smart-merges FAQ suggestions into your existing FAQ block instead of duplicating it.
- Inserts internal links drawn from your own sitemap.
What you need
A Minty Orange account at mintyorange.ai. This plugin is the editor companion to the Minty Orange optimization service. It displays and applies optimizations created there; it does not generate them on its own.
External services
This plugin is the editor companion to the Minty Orange optimization service and connects to the Minty Orange API at mintyorange.ai. It does not function without a Minty Orange account, and it sends data to that service only in response to your actions in the WordPress admin or editor:
- Authentication: every request includes the connection token you generate and paste into the plugin settings, sent in an
Authorizationheader to mintyorange.ai. You can revoke the token at any time from your Minty Orange account. - Loading an optimization: when you open an article or enter an optimization ID, the plugin sends that optimization ID to mintyorange.ai (and, for auto-detection, the article’s public URL) and receives the optimization suggestions back.
- Recording your decisions: when you accept or skip suggestions, the plugin sends the optimization ID and the per-suggestion status (accepted / skipped) to mintyorange.ai.
- Starting an optimization from the Posts list: when you click “Optimize with Minty Orange” under a post, your browser opens mintyorange.ai with that post’s public URL and its focus keyword (from Yoast SEO or Rank Math, if set) in the address. Nothing is sent until you click, and the optimization only starts when you press Start on mintyorange.ai.
- Sitemap sync: when you click “Refresh sitemap” (and on first connect), the plugin sends the list of your published posts’ public URLs, titles, and slugs to mintyorange.ai, so the service can suggest internal links to your own content.
The plugin does not send your article body content to the service; optimizations are created by you on mintyorange.ai by submitting an article URL there. Nothing is sent in the background. Data only goes out when you actively connect, load an optimization, record a decision, refresh your sitemap, or click “Optimize with Minty Orange”.

Development
The compiled JavaScript in build/ is generated from the human-readable source in src/; both ship with the plugin. To rebuild it from source:
npm install && npm run build
The build uses @wordpress/scripts (webpack) and is fully reproducible from the included src/ and package.json.
Installation
- Install and activate the plugin through the WordPress “Plugins” screen, or upload the plugin folder to
/wp-content/plugins/. - Go to Settings → Minty Orange in your WordPress admin.
- In your Minty Orange account at mintyorange.ai, open Settings → Plugin and generate a connection token.
- Paste the token into the plugin settings and save. The plugin confirms the connection.
- Open any published article in the editor. Minty Orange detects a matching optimization automatically and opens the review sidebar.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a Minty Orange account?
Yes. This plugin is the WordPress companion to the Minty Orange optimization service at mintyorange.ai. It displays and applies optimizations created there; it does not generate them on its own.
Will applying suggestions break my layout?
No. Accepting suggestions preserves your images, galleries, embeds, affiliate links, and shortcodes. They are re-anchored around the optimized text rather than discarded.
Can I undo a change?
Yes. Every applied change can be undone individually, and there is a global “Undo all” button.
Which SEO plugins are supported?
Yoast SEO, Rank Math, and All in One SEO. The plugin writes the optimized title and meta description directly into whichever one you have active. If none is detected, it offers a copy-to-clipboard fallback.
Where is my data sent?
Only to the Minty Orange service at mintyorange.ai, and only when you act (connect, load an optimization, record a decision, or refresh your sitemap). See the “External services” section below for exactly what is sent and when. The connection token is stored in your site’s options table and is never exposed in the page output, and your article body content is never sent by the plugin.
Changelog
Product cards with a separate price line no longer leave a full-width image without its buy link after Magic Apply.
1.6.9
- Fix: the “Leave a review” button no longer wraps onto two lines in the narrow sidebar.
- Fix: clearer wording in the link recovery hint and on its skip button, and in the description of what the plugin sends to Minty Orange.
1.6.8
- New: start an optimization from your Posts list. “Optimize with Minty Orange” under each published post opens it on mintyorange.ai with its URL filled in, plus its focus keyword if you set one in Yoast SEO or Rank Math. Nothing starts until you press Start there.
- New: the affiliate card in the sidebar now shows the core monetization suggestion, the same one you see on the results page.
- New: after a clean “Accept all”, the sidebar shows a short request for a review on WordPress.org. “Leave a review” or “No thanks” hides it for good.
- Fix: a hint about changes that could not sync to the server read awkwardly. It is now two clear sentences.
1.6.7
- Security: the Elementor and Beaver Builder apply endpoints now filter widget HTML the same way WordPress filters post content for users without the unfiltered_html capability (authors, contributors, and admins on multisite). Single-site admins are not affected.
- Fix: deleting the plugin now removes all of its options (sitemap state, link graph state) and its scheduled link graph events.
1.6.6
- Fix: Magic Apply no longer leaves an oversized copy of a product image above your card widgets. The text copy of a card can carry the product name and the price in two separate lines. The cleanup from 1.6.5 only expected one line, so on these cards it removed the price line and the buy link but left the image and the name standing, and the bare image rendered at full width without a link. The cleanup now recognizes both card shapes and removes the whole text copy. Your real widget comes back exactly as before.
1.6.5
- Fix: Magic Apply no longer creates a text copy next to your product card widgets. If your affiliate cards are saved as synced patterns or plugin blocks, the optimizer sees their rendered text and keeps a plain text version of each card in the optimized article, since it cannot know your widget will survive. The plugin now spots these text copies by their exact affiliate link and leaves them out. Your real widget is restored as before, and every card shows up once.
- This only removes a text card when its link is provably inside a widget that comes back. Posts where the cards are regular blocks keep their cards untouched.
1.6.4
- Fix: the link recovery list no longer misses links. Some links are removed by a late cleanup step during optimization. The sidebar counted them as lost and promised a recovery list, but the list stayed empty because these losses arrive without the usual link details. They now show up like every other lost link, and one click re-inserts them.
- For these late losses the original link settings are not recorded, so a re-inserted link starts with neutral settings. If it was an affiliate link, add nofollow or sponsored again in the editor.
