PRICINGIs the free plugin actually free?+

Yes, $0 forever, with no per-scan metering and no credit card. It is GPL-2.0 licensed and needs no license key to activate. Pro is an optional paid upgrade when you need the crawl, redirects, frontend auditor and assistant.

PRIVACYDoes it send my data to a third party?+

No. Scanning and fixing run entirely inside your WordPress install. Your site data never passes through us.

SCANNINGWhat does the free scan check?+

Deterministic detection across the areas that do not need a full-site crawl: core security hardening (XML-RPC, version exposure, user enumeration, security headers, HTTPS and mixed content, browsable uploads, exposed install files, file permissions), platform and updates, users, and environment config. Auto-fixable findings carry a one-click Fix; the rest are detect-only.

FREE VS PROWhat does Pro add?+

The deeper detection Free leaves out (performance, captured PHP errors, stale content) and the deeper security set (core integrity, SSL expiry, login protection and more), plus the full-site broken-link crawl, the redirect manager, the frontend auditor, the Ask RecapWP assistant and automatic updates: everything for keeping a roster of client sites secure and healthy.

REQUIREMENTSWhat do I need to run it?+

WordPress 6.2 or newer and PHP 8.0+, with MySQL or MariaDB. Install it like any plugin (Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin), then open the Audit tab and click Scan now.

Scan your site and fix what’s broken. Free, forever.
