Get global title & meta description settings is a WordPress ability from SEOPress — usable via Easy MCP AI, which connects Claude, ChatGPT, and any AI assistant to your site.
Install Free Plugin →Get global title & meta description settings
Read-onlyRetrieve the site-wide SEOPress title and meta description templates and separator configuration.
Requires the SEOPress plugin on WordPress 6.9+ for the Abilities API — abilities are registered only when wp_register_ability() exists, gated by the plugin's own seopress_abilities_api_available() check. Each per-post ability additionally requires the current user to hold the WordPress 'edit_post' capability for the target post (and the post must exist); the global title settings ability instead requires the SEOPress capability for managing title settings, which defaults to manage_options and is filterable via seopress_capability().
What it does
This ability reads the site's 'seopress_titles_option_name' WordPress option directly and returns its full contents — the global SEO title and meta description templates (with their %%variable%% placeholders) and separator configuration that SEOPress applies per post type and taxonomy when no per-post override exists. It takes no input and is strictly read-only. Handing this to an AI assistant lets it see the site-wide title/description defaults before recommending changes to an individual post's SEO fields, so its suggestions stay consistent with the existing template structure.
See it in action
You ask your AI assistant
"Show me the global SEOPress title and meta description templates so I understand what variables are already being used site-wide before I suggest changes."
Returns
An object with the full contents of the 'seopress_titles_option_name' option — the site-wide title/meta-description templates and separator settings configured per post type and taxonomy.
Permission
The current user must have the SEOPress capability for managing title settings, checked via current_user_can(seopress_capability('manage_options', 'titles')) — this defaults to WordPress's 'manage_options' capability and is filterable by SEOPress.
