README

Publish your Launchmind AI-generated SEO & GEO blog on your Craft CMS 5 site. Articles are pulled live from the Launchmind API and cached — nothing is written to your Craft database, so your content always reflects the latest from Launchmind.

Requirements

• Craft CMS 5.0.0 or later
• PHP 8.2 or later
• A Launchmind account and API key

Installation

From the Plugin Store: search for Launchmind Blog and click Install.

Or with Composer:

composer require launchmind/craft-launchmind-blog
php craft plugin/install launchmind-blog

Setup

1. Go to Settings → Plugins → Launchmind Blog.
2. Paste your API key (find it in your Launchmind dashboard under Settings → Connectors). You can also reference an environment variable, e.g. $LAUNCHMIND_API_KEY.
3. Set the Blog path (default blog).
4. Click Test connection, then Save.

Your blog is now live at /blog (list) and /blog/<slug> (articles).

Tip: use the API key lm_test_demo1234567890 to preview the plugin with sample content before connecting a real account.

Two ways to render

Bundled templates (zero config). The plugin ships starter templates and registers the routes for you. Override them by copying any file from vendor/launchmind/craft-launchmind-blog/src/templates/launchmind-blog/ into templates/launchmind-blog/ in your own project.

Your own templates (full control). Pull the data wherever you like:

{% set posts = craft.launchmind.posts({ limit: 6 }) %}
{% for post in posts %}
  <a href="{{ url(craft.launchmind.blogPath ~ '/' ~ post.slug) }}">
    <h2>{{ post.title }}</h2>
    <p>{{ post.excerpt }}</p>
  </a>
{% endfor %}

{# A single article #}
{% set post = craft.launchmind.post('my-article-slug') %}
{{ post.html|raw }}

Each post exposes: id, slug, title, excerpt, html, coverImage, tags, author, publishedAt, language, availableLanguages, wordCount, isVoiceArticle, and seo.title / seo.description.

Configuration file (optional)

Create config/launchmind-blog.php to manage settings in code / per environment:

<?php
return [
    'apiKey' => '$LAUNCHMIND_API_KEY',
    'blogPath' => 'blog',
    'cacheTtl' => 600,
    'enableTracking' => true,
];

Caching & reliability

Responses are cached with stale-while-revalidate: if the Launchmind API is ever briefly unreachable, your blog keeps serving the last-known-good content for up to 24 hours. Conditional requests (ETag / If-None-Match) keep bandwidth low. Clear the cache any time from the settings page.

SEO

The bundled single-article template emits a canonical tag, Open Graph tags, hreflang alternates for translated articles, and BlogPosting JSON-LD. If you use SEOmatic, render the article inside your own layout and let SEOmatic own the meta tags.
