Postlint Content Audit

Postlint Content Audit scans your published posts and pages and shows you exactly what is missing, in one report, then lets you fix most of it with one click.

The checks

• Missing featured image: the classic social-share and layout breaker.
• Missing excerpt: empty excerpts leak full paragraphs into archives and feeds.
• Missing tags and missing categories: untagged, unsorted content is hard to resurface.
• Images without alt text: counted per post from the content HTML.
• Thin content: posts under a word threshold you choose (off by default).
• Duplicate titles: grouped case- and spacing-insensitively, in one pass.

The quick fixes (all included)

• Apply default featured image: choose one image from the media library once, then set it on any audited post with a single click.
• Generate excerpt: the first 55 words of the content, stripped of shortcodes and HTML, applied per post.
• Deep links into the editor for everything else.

Built to be safe on large sites

• Scanning runs in batches (default 100 posts per step) with a continue button: no timeouts, no wall-clock surprises.
• The duplicate-title check is a single pass over hashed titles, not a slow pairwise compare.
• The report stores the latest scan; re-scan any time, or enable a weekly automatic re-scan.
• Fixes are per-post, capability-checked and nonce-protected. No mass actions, no surprises.

Everything is included. There is no locked functionality, no trial, no quota and no upgrade prompts in this plugin.
