## Description

Proactive Site Advisor adds a “Site Advisor” dashboard to your WordPress admin. 
A daily scan runs after each full day and compares that day’s data with the previous
7 days.

When a significant deviation is detected, you see an alert with:
 – What changed(
e.g., “Traffic dropped by 41%”) – What this means for your site – What you should
check next – Top 404 URLs (for 404 alerts)

Dashboard includes: critical issues indicator, weekly digest cards, latest alerts
list, and 7‑day history table with averages.

The plugin does NOT fix anything. It only alerts and recommends.

All monitoring runs locally. No external APIs, no data sharing.
