<h3></h3>
<p>Version: 2026-04-02 — v0.9.2</p>
<ul>
<li>FIX: URLhaus (abuse.ch) integration now requires an API key (Auth-Key header); added URLhaus API Key field in Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Security scanning. Without a key the URLhaus check is skipped gracefully.</li>
<li>FIX: Scan modal failed to open with “i18n is not defined” JS error — resolved by declaring i18n from cfg.i18n inside initScanModal().</li>
<li>FIX: PDF security report printed blank — modal is now temporarily moved to document.body before window.print() and restored afterwards so @media print selectors work correctly.</li>
<li>FIX: “Scanning…” text rendered as garbled bytes (double-encoded UTF-8) — replaced with an animated indeterminate progress bar.</li>

CheckView

<p>Websites rarely fail loudly. Forms stop submitting. Leads disappear. Emails never send. Checkout buttons break quietly in the background. These issues often go unnoticed until sales or leads are lost.</p>
<p>CheckView automatically tests your WordPress forms on a schedule, using real browser sessions to verify that submissions complete successfully and emails are sent. It also supports testing logins, carts, and WooCommerce checkout flows.</p>
<p>Built specifically for WordPress and WooCommerce, CheckView helps site owners, developers, and agencies detect problems early and resolve them faster, without writing code or setting up complex testing infrastructure.</p>
<h3>Works Well With</h3>
<p>CheckView works well with popular WordPress form and eCommerce plugins including Contact Form 7, WPForms, Gravity Forms, Fluent Forms, Ninja Forms, Formidable Forms, WS Form, and WooCommerce.</p>
<h3>Important</h3>
<p>This plugin requires an active <a href="https://checkview.io/" rel="nofollow ugc">CheckView</a> account.  The plugin can be installed and activated without an account, but automated testing features are only available once the site is connected to the CheckView platform.</p>
