This plugin is 100% free and open source (GPLv2 or later). It does not phone home, make external requests, or collect any data. ## Captures d’écrans [⌊Overview dashboard with summary cards and a searchable, filterable plugin usage table showing status badges and suggestions.⌉⌊Overview dashboard with summary cards and a searchable, filterable plugin usage table showing status badges and suggestions .⌉[ Overview dashboard with summary cards and a searchable, filterable plugin usage table showing status badges and suggestions.

Upload the `scoutwise-usage-audit` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or install the zip via **Plugins Add New Upload Plugin**. 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress. 3. Go to **Scoutwise Audit** in the admin menu to view your first report. 4. (Optional) Visit **Scoutwise Audit Settings** to exclude backend-only plugins ( security, SEO, caching, etc.) from « possibly unused » suggestions. ## FAQ ### Does this modify or remove any plugins automatically? No. This plugin only reports information. All removal decisions and actions remain entirely up to you. Always take a backup before deleting plugins. ### Why does a plugin show as « Unknown »? Some plugins provide functionality (security, performance, SEO, integrations, backups) with no shortcode, widget, or block for this scanner to detect. These are marked« Unknown » rather than falsely flagged as unused — you can also add them to the exclude list in Settings. ### Will this slow down my site? No. Scanning only happens in wp-admin when you view the report or click « Rescan Now. » Results are cached (default 12 hours), and nothing runs on your public-facing site. ### How does the scanner detect usage? It reads the PHP files of each installed plugin to find registered shortcodes (` add_shortcode`), widgets (`id_base` / `WP_Widget`), and blocks (`register_block_type`). It then searches your published, private, and draft post content for those shortcodes and block comments, and checks active widget areas for placed widgets. ### Can I use this on multisite? Yes, on a per-site basis. Network activation is not specially handled; run it on individual sites. ### Is my data safe? Yes. Everything stays on your server. No external API calls, no tracking, no data collection. ## Avis Il n’y a aucun avis pour cette extension. ## Contributeurs/contributrices & développeurs/développeuses « Scoutwise Usage Audit » est un logiciel libre.
