root b6df4dbb92 Snapshot: MLS sync fixes, image refresh, plugin/theme updates
MLS plugin fixes from this session:
- Fix silent insert failures: location column NOT NULL was rejecting wpdb->insert calls,
  causing ~18k new properties since Dec 2025 to be lost. Inserts now build raw SQL
  with ST_PointFromText so the spatial column is populated atomically.
- Auto-refresh expired media URLs in MLS_Media_Handler::fetch_and_cache(), guarded by
  a property-level GET_LOCK so concurrent fetches share one API refresh.
- Normalize WP_Error to null in mls_get_property_image() so callers can rely on the
  documented string|null contract.
- Support comma-separated property_type filters in MLS_Query and MLS_Cluster so the
  homepage "View All Commercial" link (?property_type=Commercial+Sale,Land,Farm)
  actually filters correctly.
- Incremental sync now looks back 10 minutes past the latest modification timestamp
  as a safety margin against missed records.
- Smart sync exits silently (info-level, not warning) when a full sync is in progress.

Operational:
- New cron: weekly full sync Sundays at 3 AM (/usr/local/bin/mls-full-sync).
- New cron: hourly 2GB cap on mls-thumbnails/ and cache/transformed-images/
  (/usr/local/bin/mls-image-cache-cap).
- Logrotate config for wp-content/debug.log (2-day retention, daily rotation,
  delaycompress).

Repo policy:
- CLAUDE.md updated with explicit "commit everything except build artifacts" policy.
- .gitignore: untrack runtime image caches and debug.log rotations.

Other modifications in this snapshot are pre-existing in-flight theme/plugin/db_content_updates work.

Database Content Update: SEO - Albert Lea Landing Page

Date: 2026-01-05 Author: Claude (automated) Summary: Configure Albert Lea page as SEO landing page with city template

Overview

This update configures the existing Albert Lea page (ID 15) as an SEO-optimized city landing page that displays MLS listings for Albert Lea.

Changes Made

1. Update Albert Lea Page Slug

Change the URL from /albert-lea/ to /albert-lea-homes/ for better SEO targeting.

UPDATE wp_posts
SET post_name = 'albert-lea-homes'
WHERE ID = 15;

WP-CLI Alternative:

wp post update 15 --post_name=albert-lea-homes --allow-root

2. Set Page Template

Assign the City Landing Page template to the Albert Lea page.

-- First check if template meta exists
SELECT * FROM wp_postmeta WHERE post_id = 15 AND meta_key = '_wp_page_template';

-- If exists, update:
UPDATE wp_postmeta
SET meta_value = 'page-city-landing.php'
WHERE post_id = 15 AND meta_key = '_wp_page_template';

-- If not exists, insert:
INSERT INTO wp_postmeta (post_id, meta_key, meta_value)
VALUES (15, '_wp_page_template', 'page-city-landing.php');

WP-CLI Alternative:

wp post meta update 15 _wp_page_template page-city-landing.php --allow-root

3. Add Yoast SEO Meta

Add optimized meta title and description for the page.

INSERT INTO wp_postmeta (post_id, meta_key, meta_value) VALUES
(15, '_yoast_wpseo_title', 'Albert Lea Homes for Sale | HomeProz Real Estate'),
(15, '_yoast_wpseo_metadesc', 'Find homes for sale in Albert Lea, MN. Browse current listings, view property details, and connect with local real estate experts at HomeProz.');

WP-CLI Alternative:

wp post meta add 15 _yoast_wpseo_title "Albert Lea Homes for Sale | HomeProz Real Estate" --allow-root
wp post meta add 15 _yoast_wpseo_metadesc "Find homes for sale in Albert Lea, MN. Browse current listings, view property details, and connect with local real estate experts at HomeProz." --allow-root

4. Flush Rewrite Rules

Required after changing page slugs to update permalinks.

wp rewrite flush --allow-root

Dependencies

  • Theme files must be deployed first:
    • wp-content/themes/homeproz/page-city-landing.php
    • wp-content/themes/homeproz/page-city-landing.scss
    • wp-content/themes/homeproz/inc/yoast-seo.php
    • wp-content/themes/homeproz/inc/acf-fields.php (updated)
    • wp-content/themes/homeproz/functions.php (updated)
    • wp-content/themes/homeproz/dist/ (rebuilt assets)

Verification

After applying changes, verify:

  1. Page loads correctly:

    https://[domain]/albert-lea-homes/
    
  2. Template is active:

    wp post meta get 15 _wp_page_template --allow-root
    # Should output: page-city-landing.php
    
  3. Yoast meta is set:

    wp post meta get 15 _yoast_wpseo_title --allow-root
    wp post meta get 15 _yoast_wpseo_metadesc --allow-root
    
  4. MLS sitemap accessible:

    https://[domain]/mls-listings-sitemap.xml
    

Rollback

To revert these changes:

-- Restore original slug
UPDATE wp_posts SET post_name = 'albert-lea' WHERE ID = 15;

-- Remove template assignment
DELETE FROM wp_postmeta WHERE post_id = 15 AND meta_key = '_wp_page_template';

-- Remove Yoast meta
DELETE FROM wp_postmeta WHERE post_id = 15 AND meta_key IN ('_yoast_wpseo_title', '_yoast_wpseo_metadesc');

Then flush rewrite rules:

wp rewrite flush --allow-root
