Install it like any WordPress plugin: upload the zip under Plugins → Add New and activate it. The first index starts by itself, and Linkweave reads your posts in the background, so you can keep working while it does. If WordPress is slow to start it, the Overview shows a Run now button. On a small site (up to 500 posts) Rebuild index reads everything straight away.
WordPress 6.8 or newer, on PHP 8.2 or newer. Most current hosts already meet that.
No. The heavy work (reading your posts and finding matches) happens in the background, not while a visitor loads a page. Adding your auto-links to a page is a quick find-and-replace, and suggestions are saved so they are not worked out again on every visit.
Not unless you ask it to. Out of the box, Linkweave finds related posts on your own server and nothing leaves your site. Pro has an optional "AI second opinion" that uses your own OpenAI or Anthropic account. It stays off until you turn it on and paste in your own key.
Yes. It is stored encrypted in your WordPress database, it is never shown again after you save it, and it is kept out of logs.
Yes, and it is off by default. Without a key, every suggestion comes from Linkweave's own matching on your server.
Only if you let them (Pro). On WordPress 6.9 or newer, AI tools that use the WordPress Abilities API can read your orphan list, link counts and the suggestions for a post. It is read only, so nothing can change your posts this way, and it stays off until you switch it on in Settings.
No. Linkweave never touches your existing links. Auto-link rules also skip headings, code and anything already inside a link.
Yes. In JnK Linkweave → Settings, tick the kinds of content Linkweave should read and suggest, for example posts and pages but not products. With Pro you can also switch auto-links off on a single post, or limit a rule to certain post types or categories.
Auto-link rules work on anything that shows through WordPress's normal post content, which covers most themes and page builders. The suggestions panel works in the block editor and the Classic Editor.
Yes, with Pro. Rules import and export as CSV, including the Pro extras: other words for the same link, post type and category limits, and rel="sponsored".
Yes (Pro). Every change made with the URL Changer is listed under "Past changes" with a Roll back button that puts the posts back as they were. Posts edited since then are left alone.
Install the Pro zip from your account, then paste your licence key into the box on JnK Linkweave → Settings. Updates then arrive in your normal WordPress updates screen.
Pro keeps working as normal for 30 days, and the dashboard shows when that ends. Updates and support stop at expiry. After that the Pro tools in the dashboard lock (URL changer, Search Console import, anchor report, Auto-Link Map, click reports and so on). Related posts, link preview cards and click tracking keep running on your site, auto-link rules are free and keep running, and you can always undo a past URL change. Nothing is deleted. Renew any time and Pro unlocks straight away, with nothing to reinstall.
Yes. Every paid plan has a 14-day money-back guarantee. If it is not right for you, email us within two weeks for a full refund.
