Content Lifecycle Manager helps you keep WordPress content accurate, up to date, and properly maintained over time.
As websites grow, published content often becomes outdated, inconsistent, or easy to forget. Pages and posts may still be live, but the information inside them can slowly lose relevance. In many cases, the challenge is not creating new content. It is making sure existing content is still correct, still useful, and still worth keeping.
Content Lifecycle Manager brings a simple maintenance workflow into WordPress so content upkeep becomes easier to manage as part of everyday publishing.
You can assign ownership, track review dates, identify content that needs attention, and take clear next steps such as marking content as reviewed, snoozing a review, or archiving content that is no longer relevant. Instead of relying on memory or scattered editorial processes, your team gets a structured way to review and maintain content over time.
The plugin also includes a lightweight Ideas area for capturing future content topics and turning them into drafts when needed. This helps connect early planning with the long-term lifecycle of published content.
Whether you manage a small site or a large content library, Content Lifecycle Manager helps you build a more reliable process for keeping your website content current, useful, and easier to maintain.

It’s no secret that guest blogging is a powerful way to add useful content and interaction to your site. Adding to this the fact that WordPress makes it easy to track and manage the editorial and review process, it’s little wonder why so many sites, large and small use the platform to power numerous writers.
One of the difficulties, however, is making a writer clear of your site’s writing guidelines. You could send around a PDF or even create a page on your site, but that can get a bit messy.
Features include:
<ul>
<li>Change the color of the panel’s header to help match your site’s theme or to simply grab your writers’ attention.</li>
<li>Specify the post types on which you want the editorial guidelines to appear.</li>
<li>Specify the specific user roles for which you want the editorial guidelines appear.</li>
</ul>

Simple Editorial Guidelines

This plugin enables you to display a simple panel containing your editorial guidelines in the post edit admin to users of your choosing.
