Description
RK Smart Internal Linker analyzes your content in real time and suggests the most relevant internal posts to link to — right inside the Gutenberg sidebar. No external APIs, no monthly fees, no data leaving your server.
How it works:
- On activation, the plugin creates a keyword index table and begins indexing your published posts via WP-Cron (20 posts every 5 minutes).
- When you open a post in the editor, the plugin extracts the top keywords and scores every other post by keyword overlap (TF-IDF).
- The top 5 results appear in a sidebar panel with Copy Link and Insert Link buttons.
Features:
- 100% local — no API keys, no external calls
- TF-IDF keyword scoring for smart relevance
- Background indexing via WP-Cron (server-friendly batches)
- Instant re-index on post save
- Clean Gutenberg sidebar with score badges
- One-click copy or insert links
Installation
- Upload the
rk-smart-internal-linkerfolder to/wp-content/plugins/. - Activate through Plugins Installed Plugins.
- Open any post in the Gutenberg editor and click the link icon in the top-right toolbar to open the Smart Internal Links sidebar.
