Original Product. Official License Key Not Included. GPL Licensed for Unlimited Sites.

PublishPress Checklists Pro allows you to control the quality of your WordPress content. You define exactly which tasks must be completed before publishing and choose whether each task is recommended or required. As authors check items off, red warnings turn green so everyone knows what is left to do.

What is PublishPress Checklists Pro 🧭

PublishPress Checklists Pro is a pre publishing checklist system for WordPress. It puts a clear, customizable checklist beside every post, page, and supported custom post type so editors can enforce standards. The result is consistent, higher quality content with fewer missed steps.

Key Benefits 🎯

Ensure quality is baked into the workflow, not remembered at the last minute. Give writers instant feedback inside the editor and block publishing until requirements are met. Adapt rules to each post type and team role without custom code.

Highlighted Features 🚀

Create your own checklists

Add and organize checklist items per post type. Authors see a live checklist while writing and watch items turn green as they pass each rule.

Custom checklist rules

Go beyond the defaults with unlimited custom items. Mix recommended and required tasks, set min or max values, and fine tune who can bypass rules.

Content quality controls

Enforce essentials such as minimum or maximum word count, featured image required, internal and external link count, and image alt text completeness. Guide structure by requiring or prohibiting categories and tags and validating permalinks.

SEO and readability integrations

Check for Yoast SEO and Readability scores or use Rank Math targets so publishing standards align with your SEO plugin. These checks run right in the editor for instant feedback.

Advanced Custom Fields support

Require specific ACF fields to be completed before publishing. Protect data quality for custom workflows and complex content types.

Accessibility and media checks

Set rules for image counts and alt text length, and ensure featured images have captions where needed. Keep accessibility on the checklist, not as an afterthought.

Approval and workflow guards

Add “Approved by user” style requirements or disable the Publish button until critical gates pass. Choose which roles, if any, can ignore specific tasks.

WooCommerce products checklist 🛍️

Apply over twenty product specific checks such as price, SKU, stock status, product images and gallery, categories and attributes. Prevent products from going live until all store rules are satisfied.

OpenAI assisted checks

Optionally scan content for tone, spelling, and grammar using OpenAI to catch issues earlier in the writing process.

Editor friendly UX

Tabs group related rules like Images, Taxonomies, SEO, Approval, and Permalinks. Small touches like keeping your active tab after saving make daily use smoother.

Why choose this plugin ✅

It turns best practices into a publish time contract your editors and writers can see. You get fewer back and forth edits, fewer missed SEO and accessibility steps, and a clean path to consistent content across authors and teams.
