Connect your website for Auto-fix

Add one line to your site, or the WordPress plugin, so approved fixes go live on your pages.

What you will see in IndexPedia

Why it matters

Auto-fix writes fixes on IndexPedia, but they only reach your visitors and Google once your website is connected. Connecting is a one-time step and changes nothing on your site by itself.

The WordPress plugin and the PHP snippet put fixes into the page itself, which every search engine reads. The one-line tag works on any builder and applies fixes as the page loads, which Google sees when it renders the page.

Before you start

  • A site added to IndexPedia
  • Access to your website builder's settings, or to WordPress plugins

Step by step

  1. 1

    Open Connect

    Every site has a Connect page with the steps for your website builder.

  2. 2

    Pick your builder

    WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, GoDaddy, Webflow or any HTML site. The steps change to match.

    WordPress: install the plugin

    Download the IndexPedia Connect plugin, then upload and activate it. Your site ID is already inside, so there is nothing to set up.

    Other builders: paste one line

    Copy the one-line tag and paste it into your builder's header code box.

    Check the connection

    Press Check. A green "Connected" means saved fixes now go live within 5 minutes.

If something goes wrong

Check says "not connected"
Publish the site after pasting the line; most builders only add header code to the live site after publishing. Then press Check again.
My builder has no code box
Some starter plans hide custom code. You can still copy each approved title and description into the builder's own SEO settings.
I use a caching plugin
Clear the cache once after activating the plugin, so the first pages are served with your fixes.

What to do next

Once connected, open Auto-fix and review the fixes that are waiting. Saved fixes go live within 5 minutes.

Questions about this guide

Will connecting slow my site?

No. Fixes are kept on your server or in the browser cache and refreshed every 5 minutes, so pages never wait on IndexPedia.

Can I disconnect later?

Yes. Remove the line or deactivate the plugin, and your pages go back to exactly how they were.

Does it change my design?

No. Only titles, descriptions, a few tags Google reads, and a short "Related pages" list when you approve one.
