A WordPress plugin that replaces the default WordPress welcome panel with a content review dashboard. The dashboard lets you audit and surface stale posts and pages based on site or per-post policies.
Content Fresh helps WordPress site owners identify stale posts and pages so content stays accurate, current, and useful. The plugin adds a dashboard widget (and optional welcome panel replacement) that highlights content older than your review window. The plugin provides configurable review policies, editorial visibility, and optional Plus support for broader content-type coverage.
Configure defaults and included post types, or override per post. Designed to be lightweight, admin-only, and translation-ready.
The free version supports standard Posts and Pages. Content Fresh Plus unlocks support for custom post types.
Media Library support is planned for version 0.2.0+ as a CRD Plus feature.
