XFRM SEO Boost is a free, zero-config add-on for the XenForo Resource Manager that fixes the four things every resource owner cares about:
- Featured image with three display modes — show as a hero banner above the content, as a small sidebar thumbnail (default), or hide it but still use it for og:image.
- Per-resource SEO meta override — title, description, focus keyword, canonical URL — written directly on the resource edit page.
- Smart og:type detection — free downloads ship as article, paid resources as product (with Facebook-required price tags) — no manual setup.
- Sticky sidebar with seamless gray column — the sidebar locks to the viewport on scroll, and the column extends behind it cleanly without ugly white gaps.
Schema.org / JSON-LD that Google actually accepts
- Article for free downloads — always valid, no required offers/rating fields.
- Product for paid resources — auto-fills offers, aggregateRating, brand (from your boardTitle), shippingDetails (zero-cost digital), and hasMerchantReturnPolicy (digital return policy) — all the optional fields Google requests for Merchant Listings.
- Country code auto-detected from your XenForo default language (en-US → US, tr-TR → TR, de-DE → DE).
Open Graph + Twitter Card
- Large image preview on Facebook, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack.
- Featured banner is automatically used as og:image — same URL across hero, sidebar, listings, and social previews.
- No CDN dependency — everything served from your own /data/resource_banner/ folder.
ACP options (3 toggles, no clutter)
- Sidebar sticky top offset (px) — adjust if your forum has a fixed top navigation bar.
- Enable extended JSON-LD output — turn off if your theme already emits its own schema.
- Use Product schema when og:type=product — keep schema valid even on resources without offers/ratings.
Privacy & quality
- No CDN, no callbacks, no telemetry, no DRM.
- All assets served locally — GDPR-friendly.
- Plug-and-play install — three setup steps run automatically (table, column, ready).
- Fully phrased — Turkish translation included as a separate XML attachment.
