Linkable is a lightweight WordPress plugin that automates internal linking by converting defined keywords into links to selected posts or pages.<\/p>\n\n

Core functionality:<\/strong>\n* Automatically links keywords to chosen posts or pages\n* Works on singular posts and pages by filtering the_content<\/code> at priority 20\n* Searches for keyword matches inside <p><\/code>, <li><\/code>, <b><\/code>, <em><\/code>, and <i><\/code> tags\n* Skips self-links by excluding the current post from the keyword map\n* Uses the Yoast SEO title for link tooltips when Yoast is active, otherwise falls back to the WordPress title\n* Preserves existing <a><\/code> tags and shortcodes by backing them up before processing and restoring them afterward<\/p>\n\n

Keyword management:<\/strong>\n* Keywords are stored per post and per page as JSON in the linkable_tags<\/code> post meta field\n* linkable_tags<\/code> is registered with REST support, sanitized via sanitize_text_field<\/code>, and restricted to users with edit_posts<\/code><\/p>\n\n

Settings:<\/strong>\n* Accessible via Settings \u2192 Linkable\n* max_links_per_target<\/code>: limits how many times the same target can be linked from one post (default 1)\n* first_occurrence_only<\/code>: when enabled, each keyword is linked only once per post<\/p>\n\n

Performance:<\/strong>\n* Builds a global keyword map from all published posts and pages with linkable_tags<\/code>\n* Caches the keyword map with a transient (global_linkable_tag_map<\/code>) for one hour\n* Query optimized to fetch only IDs and avoid unnecessary meta\/term caching<\/p>\n\n

Editor compatibility:<\/strong>\n* Works with both the block editor and the classic editor\n* Enqueues an admin sidebar panel script (static\/js\/admin-sidebar-panel.js<\/code>) with WordPress dependencies and versioning via filemtime<\/code><\/p>\n\n

Security:<\/strong>\n* URLs are properly escaped with esc_url<\/code>\n* Link titles are sanitized and HTML-escaped\n* Meta registration includes capability and sanitization checks<\/p>\n\n
