Building a Smarter Foundation: Introducing Blue Raven Pro 1.2.0

We believe a great eCommerce store needs a solid foundation. It’s not just about flashy features; it’s about the smart, automated systems working in the background that prevent problems and save you from headaches. With our latest update, Blue Raven Pro 1.2.0, we’re pouring a stronger, smarter concrete for your online business.

This release focuses on powerful new tools for SEO, content protection, and site management.

Let’s dive into what’s new.

A Smarter Way to Manage Your Meta SEOs

Good SEO is in the details. We’ve supercharged our toolkit to handle those details for you. First, we’ve separated and improved our meta description tools. You now have distinct “Page Meta” and “Post Meta” sections, each with their own AI powered generators. This means you can craft perfectly tailored descriptions for your blog posts and your main site pages without any friction.

A real game changer: our new automatic 301 redirects.

How many times have you hesitated to change a product URL, delete a page, or update a post because you were afraid of breaking a link and losing SEO value? With Blue Raven, you don’t have to worry. Now, when you change a slug or remove a product, page, or post, Blue Raven automatically creates a 301 redirect to a single destination URL for each item.

This means visitors and search engines are seamlessly guided to the correct location, protecting your hard earned search rankings. Plus, your users never encounter 404 pages when clicking on deleted or moved content, ensuring a smooth browsing experience every time.

Protect Your Hard Work with Product Versioning

This might be our favorite new feature. If you’ve ever updated a product description only to realize you preferred the old one, this is for you. We’re introducing automatic WooCommerce product versioning.

Think of it like a time machine for your products. Every time you make a change, Blue Raven quietly saves a version in the background. You can browse your full history, mark important versions as favorites, and restore any one of them with a single click. You can even lock in your three most important versions to keep them permanently protected.

Accidentally deleted a product? If you saved a version as a favorite, you can resurrect the entire product from the digital graveyard content, settings, and all.

When a product is restored, it reappears as a Draft, giving you complete control to review, edit, and publish it at your own discretion.

A Faster, Tighter Site Experience

Our new image compression tool gives you the power to speed up your site without the guesswork. You can compress any image into a modern format of your choice, like the efficient WebP format. For every image you process, you’ll see the exact compression percentage, so you know how much you’re saving. Best of all, the system always creates a backup of your original file first. You get a faster site with complete peace of mind.

Effortless Code Management

We’ve added dedicated spaces for your header and footer scripts. This means you can insert tracking codes, pixels, or any custom JavaScript directly into your site’s header and footer. You manage it all right from the Blue Raven dashboard, eliminating the need to edit theme files. It’s the secure and organized way to handle your site’s code.

New Alert System

We’ve replaced all the clunky old JavaScript alert boxes with built-in, stylish alerts and warnings. This means every notification, from a successful save to a critical warning, now feels like a natural part of your WordPress dashboard. It’s a small change that makes the whole experience feel more polished and professional.

This will also make it easier to follow along with what is happening, and know if something goes wrong, with a new Error code system we also hope to make resolving any issues more efficient and simple

And that’s not it

Along with these key additions, you’ll find general interface polish and stability enhancements across the entire plugin. Our goal is a experience that feels both powerful and effortless.
