Run a scan, work through the list, and re-scan to confirm each item is actually fixed. Every issue is tracked with an Open / Fixed / Ignored status so nothing gets forgotten between rounds of edits. #### What it checks * Lorem Ipsum placeholder text in page and post content * Generic placeholder/demo text (“sample text”, “your text here”, “coming soon”, etc.) * `example.com` references left in content * Dummy or test email addresses (test@test.com, john@doe.com, etc.) * Empty links and `#` placeholder links in published content * Empty Elementor buttons and Elementor buttons using `#` as their link * Other common page builder fields (Divi, Beaver Builder, Bricks, Oxygen, CornerStone) * Whether HTTPS is active on the site URL * Search engine visibility (the “discourage search engines” setting) * Site title / tagline placeholders * Homepage configuration (a static homepage that isn’t set or isn’t published) * Missing site icon / favicon * Published posts or pages with obvious test/demo titles #### How it works 1. Go to Tools > Launch Checker in your WordPress admin. 2. Click “Scan Website”. 3. Work through the list of Open issues and fix them on your site. 4. Click “Scan Website” again — anything that’s actually fixed is automatically marked Fixed, and anything still present stays Open. 5. Use “Ignore” on any item that doesn’t apply to your project (e.g. an intentional`#` anchor link). #### Privacy All scanning happens locally, directly against your own WordPress database and content. No site content, URLs, or scan results are ever sent to an external server. ## Installation 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/wexlab-website-launch-checker` directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress Plugins screen directly. 2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” screen in WordPress. 3. Go to Tools > Launch Checker. 4. Click “Scan Website” to run your first scan. ## FAQ ### Does this plugin send my site’s content anywhere? No. Every check runs locally against your own WordPress database. Nothing is sent to an external service. ### Will this slow down my site for visitors? No. Scans only run when you click “Scan Website” from the admin dashboard — nothing runs on the public-facing site. ### Does it work with page builders other than Elementor? Yes. In addition to Elementor, it checks common content fields used by Divi, Beaver Builder, Bricks, Oxygen, and CornerStone. ### What happens if I mark something as “Ignore”? Ignored issues are excluded from the Open count and won’t reappear until you click“ Check again” on that item. ### What happens if I uninstall the plugin? Uninstalling the plugin permanently removes its scan history table and settings from your database. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Wexlab Website Launch Checker” is open source software.
