It surfaces findings, flags issues, and helps you trace the root cause of problems — but it never acts without your permission. Every database query is SELECT-only. Nothing is inserted, updated, or deleted. #### Who it’s for * Site owners who want to understand why their site is slow * Developers debugging PHP errors and plugin conflicts * Agencies doing pre-launch or ongoing site audits * Anyone who wants to stop guessing and start knowing #### The Modules **🔴 Error Log Viewer** PHP error log analysis — grouped, severity-rated, and sorted so you see the most important errors first. Each group shows first-seen and last- seen timestamps, occurrence count, file path, and line number. The viewer also detects whether your debug log is web-accessible and escalates the health score if so. **📅 What Changed? — Timeline Correlation** The most useful debugging tool on this list. Every plugin update, activation, WordPress core update, and theme switch plotted on the same interactive timeline as your PHP error spikes. Hover any event to see correlation scores (0–99) with plain-English reasoning explaining why a change and an error are likely connected. **🗄️ DB Health Inspector** Table bloat analysis, autoloaded options ranked by size, orphaned postmeta counts, Action Scheduler history, and autoload index verification. If your database is slowing you down, this is where you find out why. **⚙️ Cron Inspector** Standard WP-Cron and Action Scheduler jobs in a single unified view, sorted chronologically with next-run times, intervals, and overdue highlighting. No more mystery cron tasks. **🔌 Blast Radius Analyzer** Shows the full footprint of every active plugin: custom database tables, scheduled cron jobs, REST API routes, enqueued scripts and stylesheets, and hook registrations. Know exactly what a plugin owns before you deactivate it. **🚀 Update Impact Analysis** Before updating any plugin, see what it shares with the rest of your site — common hooks, custom DB tables, scheduled jobs, REST endpoints, and asset bundle size — so you can anticipate conflicts before they happen. **📦 Autoload Governor** Per-plugin autoload size attribution. See exactly which plugins are adding weight to every single page load, and how much. **💣 Time Bomb Detector** SSL certificate expiry monitoring, PHP version risk assessment, and stale plugin flagging. Problems that tend to surface at the worst possible time— surfaced early, on your schedule. **🕵️ Plugin Abandonment Radar** Every installed plugin cross-checked against the WordPress.org Plugin API for last-updated staleness, tested-up-to drift, and closed or removed status. Closed plugins are often removed for unpatched security vulnerabilities— this module tells you before it becomes a problem. **📜 Asset Inspector** Every script and stylesheet WordPress has enqueued, with file sizes and running totals, separated by JavaScript and CSS. **🖥️ Server & PHP Environment** php.ini directive audit, key wp-config.php constants review, PHP extension checklist, and database server details — all in one place. **📊 Hosting Benchmark** On-demand database, PHP, and filesystem performance probes with letter grades and object-cache detection. **✉️ Mail Health Inspector** WordPress mail transport detection, live SPF/DKIM/ DMARC/MX DNS record checks, and a one-click send test that returns real failure messages instead of generic errors. **📄 Export Report** Generates a self-contained, downloadable HTML diagnostic report covering the health score, database metrics, error log summary, and full system snapshot. Shareable with hosting support or a developer without granting admin access. #### 100% Read-Only Every query this plugin runs is SELECT-only. It reads your site’s state; it never changes it. No rows inserted, no settings modified, no plugins deactivated. #### Want more? **WP Health Inspector Pro** adds Root Cause Analysis, Conflict Detector, Request Profiler, External Dependency Monitoring, Performance Baselines, Core Web Vitals estimates, Security Audit, Content Health, and weekly Health Digest emails.

Results are cached for 12 hours between requests. **Data sent:** only the plugin slugs of plugins already installed on your site. No site content, user data, or personally identifiable information is sent.

Install the plugin through the WordPress Plugins screen, or upload the plugin files to `/wp-content/plugins/wphi-diagnostic-suite-lite`. 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** screen in WordPress. 3. Navigate to **Health Inspector** in the admin menu to get started. No configuration required. The health score dashboard loads immediately on activation. ## FAQ ### Does this plugin make any changes to my database? No. Every query uses SELECT, SHOW, or SHOW INDEX. Nothing is inserted, updated, or deleted. It is fully safe to run on a live production site. ### Can I use this on a live production site? Yes. The plugin is designed specifically for production diagnostics. It has no frontend footprint — no scripts or styles are loaded for visitors — and all admin queries are read-only. ### Will this slow down my site? No. The plugin only runs queries when an administrator loads one of its own pages. There is no code running on the frontend and no persistent background processing beyond a lightweight daily snapshot used by the What Changed? timeline. ### What is the correlation score in What Changed? Each error–change pairing is given a 0–99 score. File-path matching — where the error originates inside the changed plugin’s own folder — scores 80–99 regardless of timing. Temporal matching scores lower based on time proximity and source reliability. ### Who can see the plugin pages? The plugin requires the `manage_options` capability. Only administrators can access its pages. ### Is there a Pro version? Yes. WP Health Inspector Pro adds Root Cause Analysis, Request Profiler, Conflict Detector, External Dependency Monitoring, Performance Baselines, Core Web Vitals, Security Audit, Content Health, and Health Digest emails. Visit [wphealthinspector.com](https://wphealthinspector.com). ### Does it work alongside WP Health Inspector Pro? Yes. If Pro is also installed, Lite enters a hibernation mode: it stays listed as active (for WordPress.org update checks) but registers zero hooks and uses zero resources. Pro handles everything. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Health Inspector — WordPress Diagnostics Suite” is open source software.
