WPSSO REST API Plugin

Extends the WordPress REST API post, term, and user query results:

• The html array includes HTML formatted meta tags and Schema JSON-LD (aka LD+JSON) scripts, as they appear in the webpage head section.
• The json array provides Schema JSON-LD (aka LD+JSON) scripts in their decoded format.
• The parts array offers meta tag attributes (aka “the parts”) as arrays, making it easier to find and use specific meta tag values.

There is no add-on settings page for this plugin – simply install and activate the plugin.
