== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Why you create this?  =

It's for my personal projects. I only want a lightweight plugin for my SEO needs. The most popular and the slimmest SEO plugin still fails to allow me to add custom Structured Data (Schema) Markup (JSON-LD) in page/post I need. Well, I can always write custom php snippets for this, but there comes a time when I think "why not just create a plugin, and fill it with the features I often need"?

= Why use the native WordPress post meta fields?  =

Why not? This plugin created with "always utilize the native feature if it's available" in mind. I want to keep it as simple and lightweight as possible.

= I can't find my post meta fields in the editor  =

Usually it doesn't appear by default, especially if you've never used it before. Just click the three dots in the top right corner > click preferences > click the panel tab > enable (enable) custom fields
