Eggy SEO Autopilot
The always-free all-in-one XenForo SEO suite
Automated auditing, metadata, structured data, Google Search Console, IndexNow, internal-link intelligence and much more — built directly for XenForo 2.3.
SEO automation without leaving XenForo
Eggy SEO Autopilot brings a complete collection of search optimisation, auditing and indexing tools together inside your XenForo Admin Control Panel.
Rather than relying on a collection of unrelated services and scripts, Eggy SEO Autopilot gives administrators a dedicated SEO workspace covering site auditing, metadata, structured data, crawling, indexing, internal linking, Google Search Console, IndexNow, sitemap management, diagnostics and performance monitoring.
And most importantly:
Eggy SEO Autopilot is always free.
No feature tiers. No paid "Pro" edition required to unlock the core SEO suite.
A complete SEO workspace
Everything is organised through a dedicated XenForo-native administration interface with separate areas for:
- Dashboard — central SEO overview and status information
- Site Audit — discover, inspect and score pages across your community
- Search Console — Search Analytics, URL Inspection and sitemap submission
- Performance — optional performance and Core Web Vitals monitoring
- Internal Links — discover useful relationships between content
- Sitemap / IndexNow — sitemap management and rapid URL submission
- Targeting Rules — control exactly where SEO automation applies
- Diagnostics — inspect the health of the SEO configuration and integrations
- Settings — configure the complete SEO system from one place
Automated site auditing
Eggy SEO Autopilot can discover and analyse pages throughout your XenForo community and maintain a persistent SEO record for them.
- Automated page discovery
- Page-level SEO auditing
- SEO scoring
- Pending and completed audit tracking
- Historical SEO score tracking
- HTTP status monitoring
- Automated scheduled auditing
- Duplicate URL protection
- Crawler safety controls
- Private XenForo route protection
- Redirect validation
- Subdirectory XenForo installation support
The crawler is XenForo-aware and is designed to avoid treating account pages, private application routes and unsuitable URLs as public SEO targets.
Metadata automation
Improve search presentation without manually editing every page.
Eggy SEO Autopilot includes:
- Automatic meta-description generation
- Keyword generation
- Canonical URL handling
- Duplicate metadata protection
- Alternate site-name support
- Organisation / publisher information
- Organisation logo configuration
- Site-wide SEO identity controls
When AI functionality is disabled, Eggy SEO Autopilot continues to provide deterministic description generation, so the core SEO system does not depend on a paid AI provider.
Structured data / schema
Eggy SEO Autopilot can generate XenForo-aware JSON-LD structured data to help search engines better understand your community.
Features include:
- Website structured data
- Organisation / publisher structured data
- XenForo-aware schema generation
- Structured-data validation safeguards
- Crawlable organisation logo support
- Protection against malformed JSON-LD output
Google Search Console integration
Connect Eggy SEO Autopilot directly to Google Search Console using a Google service account.
Once configured, the XenForo ACP can provide:
- Search Analytics
- Search performance history
- Google URL Inspection
- Index verdict
- Coverage / indexing state
- Last crawl information
- Rich-results verdict
- Google sitemap submission
URL Inspection results are displayed directly inside the Eggy SEO workspace without having to leave the XenForo ACP.
IndexNow support
Help supported search engines discover updated content faster using built-in IndexNow integration.
- IndexNow key-file support
- Automatic submission queue
- Scheduled background processing
- Multi-host-safe URL processing
- Manual queue flushing
- Board-path-aware key handling
Sitemap intelligence
Eggy SEO Autopilot works alongside XenForo's sitemap system while adding its own discovery and validation tools.
- XenForo sitemap integration
- SEO sitemap discovery
- Sitemap URL validation
- Duplicate detection
- Outside-domain protection
- Google sitemap submission
Internal-link intelligence
Good SEO is not only about metadata.
Eggy SEO Autopilot analyses relationships between content and can surface useful internal-link opportunities throughout your community.
- Internal-link suggestions
- Content relationship analysis
- Topic discovery
- Hub-page intelligence
- Related-page recommendations
Powerful targeting rules
Control exactly where your SEO rules apply.
Targeting supports:
- Exact URL paths
- * wildcards
- ? wildcards
- Explicit regular expressions
- Compatibility with anchored regular expressions
- Invalid regular-expression detection
- Safe exact-path matching without accidental partial matches
This makes it possible to apply SEO automation broadly or restrict behaviour to very specific areas of your XenForo installation.
Performance monitoring
Optional performance monitoring can be enabled when required.
The system includes support for:
- Performance measurement
- Core Web Vitals monitoring
- Performance freshness tracking
- Scheduled metrics processing
- Performance information inside the SEO workspace
Performance monitoring is optional and can remain disabled without affecting the rest of Eggy SEO Autopilot.
Optional AI — not AI dependent
AI-assisted SEO description generation is available as an optional feature.
AI is not required for Eggy SEO Autopilot to function.
With AI disabled, the add-on continues to provide its normal crawler, auditing, indexing, metadata, structured-data, Search Console, IndexNow, sitemap and internal-link features.
Built properly for XenForo
Eggy SEO Autopilot is not a standalone script bolted onto your forum.
It integrates directly with XenForo using:
- Native XenForo options
- Native ACP templates
- Native routes
- Template modifications
- Code-event listeners
- Cron jobs
- Permission-protected ACP actions
- XenForo's existing sitemap and application environment
Background automation
Scheduled XenForo cron jobs handle recurring SEO operations including:
- SEO auditing
- Search / performance metrics processing
- IndexNow queue processing
Once configured, much of the ongoing SEO housekeeping can operate automatically.
Diagnostics and safety
A dedicated diagnostics system checks important parts of the installation and configuration so administrators can quickly identify features that require attention.
The system includes safeguards around:
- Crawler URL eligibility
- Private XenForo locations
- Redirect destinations
- External URL handling
- Structured-data output
- Sitemap URLs
- Indexing integrations
- Google connectivity
Requirements
- XenForo: 2.3.12 or newer
- PHP: 8.0.0 or newer
Google Search Console functionality requires valid Google service-account credentials.
AI-assisted descriptions are optional and require an appropriate provider configuration only if you choose to enable them.
