Paired module: Settings — Roles, Rollback & Import/Export

Granular role manager, site-wide rollback log for every change, and a unified import/export for settings, redirects, schema presets and content. SEO is a team sport; without roles, rollback and portable settings, one plugin becomes a bottleneck across the team.

  • Settings → Roles → Scope module access per role
  • Rollback → Restore any change by user, date or module
  • Import/Export → Move settings between environments in one file
  • Version the export in Git for infrastructure-as-code
Do I need a plugin to handle How to Use Headings on Your Site?

Not strictly, but auditing and rollback are what make the difference at scale. That's what WBP Omni SEO Pro handles.

Will this hurt existing rankings?

Not if the change is small and reversible. Every step above ships behind an Approve gate.

Does disabling a module lose my data?

No — settings and data persist; disabling just skips loading the module code and its UI.

Is there an audit log?

Every change is logged with user, module, before/after diff and rollback token — retention is configurable per site.
