Wexlab Website Launch Checker

Description

Wexlab Website Launch Checker is an independent tool by WP Expert Lab that helps WordPress developers and site owners catch common pre-launch mistakes — placeholder text, dummy links, missing settings — before a client or visitor ever sees them.

Run a scan, work through the list, and re-scan to confirm each item is actually fixed. Every issue is tracked with an Open / Fixed / Ignored status so nothing gets forgotten between rounds of edits.

What it checks

• Lorem Ipsum placeholder text in page and post content
• Generic placeholder/demo text (“sample text”, “your text here”, “coming soon”, etc.)
• example.com references left in content
• Dummy or test email addresses ([email protected], [email protected], etc.)
• Empty links and # placeholder links in published content
• Empty Elementor buttons and Elementor buttons using # as their link
• Other common page builder fields (Divi, Beaver Builder, Bricks, Oxygen, CornerStone)
• Whether HTTPS is active on the site URL
• Search engine visibility (the “discourage search engines” setting)
• Site title / tagline placeholders
• Homepage configuration (a static homepage that isn’t set or isn’t published)
• Missing site icon / favicon
• Published posts or pages with obvious test/demo titles

How it works

1. Go to Tools > Launch Checker in your WordPress admin.
2. Click “Scan Website”.
3. Work through the list of Open issues and fix them on your site.
4. Click “Scan Website” again — anything that’s actually fixed is automatically marked Fixed, and anything still present stays Open.
5. Use “Ignore” on any item that doesn’t apply to your project (e.g. an intentional # anchor link).

Privacy

All scanning happens locally, directly against your own WordPress database and content. No site content, URLs, or scan results are ever sent to an external server.
