Katze Site Preflight adds a compact widget to the WordPress dashboard that checks common pre-launch conditions and shows an at-a-glance readiness score.
Each check is weighted and contributes to an overall score out of 100:
<ul>
<li>✅ 100 — Ready to launch</li>
<li>⚠️ 80–99 — Ready to launch if no issues</li>
<li>⚠️ 60–79 — Please review before launch</li>
<li>❌ 0–59 — Must fix before launch</li>
</ul>
Individual checks cover:
<ul>
<li>Search engine visibility setting</li>
<li>Site icon</li>
<li>SSL (HTTPS)</li>
<li>Tagline still set to the WordPress default</li>
<li>Sample page, “Hello world!” post, and sample comments</li>
<li>Pending comments awaiting moderation</li>
<li><code>WP_DEBUG</code> enabled in production</li>
<li>Published posts or pages with multibyte (e.g. Japanese) slugs, when the permalink structure includes the post name</li>
<li>Published posts still using the “Uncategorized” category</li>
</ul>
The plugin is read-only — it never changes any site settings or content.

Publishing Checklist is a developer tool for adding pre-flight editorial checklists to WordPress posts. Each time a user saves a post, Publishing Checklist validates that post type’s list of tasks to make sure the content is ready for release. Tasks are validated with callbacks you supply when registering tasks.
