Installation

Requirements

• CS-Cart and Multi-Vendor 4.17.2 – 4.21.x (tested on CS-Cart 4.17.2, Multi-Vendor 4.17.2 and Multi-Vendor 4.21.2 with PHP 8.3).
• PHP 7.4 – 8.3, as supported by your CS-Cart version.
• The SEO add-on of CS-Cart, active (it is installed and active by default).
• Administrator access to the store’s admin panel.

Install the add-on

1. Download the kv_seo_pro_suite-<version>.zip package from your Kavio Labs or CS-Cart Marketplace account.
2. In the admin panel, open Add-ons → Manage add-ons.
3. Click the gear button and choose Manual installation, then upload the archive.
4. Find SEO Pro Suite in the list and make sure its status is Active.
5. Open the add-on settings and review them (see Configuration). The defaults are safe: nothing is hidden from search engines except sorted listings and search result pages.
6. On the License tab of the settings, enter your license key and save. If you bought the add-on on the CS-Cart Marketplace and entered the license number in Add-ons → Manage add-ons, you can skip this step. Until a key is verified, the add-on works for 14 days (see License).

After the installation the storefront immediately prints the extra structured data, the social cards and the robots tags, and /llms.txt is available. Open Website → SEO Pro Suite and check a product page to see the result.

First steps

1. Settings → Structured data: fill in the return policy and shipping details if you want them in Google’s merchant listings, and your customer service phone, e-mail and social profiles.
2. Settings → AI search: choose an AI crawler policy, then write it to robots.txt on the Website → SEO Pro Suite page.
3. Add FAQs to your most important products and categories on their SEO Pro tab.

Update

1. Upload the new package the same way. Your settings, FAQs and robots overrides are kept.
2. Clear the cache: Administration → Storage → Clear cache.

See CHANGELOG for what changed in each version.

Uninstall

Open Add-ons → Manage add-ons, click the add-on’s gear button and choose Uninstall. Uninstalling removes the add-on’s settings, language variables and tables (FAQs and robots overrides) and removes its AI crawler block from robots.txt. The core SEO add-on and its structured data stay as they are.
