Descrizione
BreakGuard Upgrade Scanner helps site owners and agencies catch upgrade problems before they hit production.
Unlike tools that only read WordPress.org metadata, BreakGuard Upgrade Scanner scans your installed plugin and theme PHP files locally for deprecated syntax, dangerous functions, suspicious obfuscation, and legacy database calls. It combines that with public listing data, update gaps, abandonment signals and readiness checklists for WordPress and PHP targets.
Why use BreakGuard Upgrade Scanner?
- Local code scanner — actionable warnings from files on your server (eval, shell_exec, base64_decode, mysql_query, and more).
- Security heuristics — clear messages like “Plugin X contains eval()”.
- Maintenance badges — Updated recently, Stale, Abandoned, Unknown source.
- Missing update detector — installed vs latest version with severity (Low/Medium/High).
- Source classification — WordPress.org, Premium/commercial, Custom/local, Unknown.
- Chunked scanning — scans 10 components per request with progress (“Scanning 34 / 97”) so admin stays responsive.
- Weekly scheduled scans — optional WP-Cron with email when new risks appear.
- WordPress & PHP readiness — checklist before upgrading core or PHP.
- Site Compatibility Score — simple 0–100 health score with breakdown.
- HTML report export — shareable compatibility report for clients and staging reviews.
Important
This plugin provides heuristic guidance, not a guarantee of runtime compatibility. Always test upgrades on staging. Premium and custom code may need vendor confirmation.

FAQ
-
Does this replace staging tests?
-
No. Use BreakGuard Upgrade Scanner to prioritize what to test before you upgrade WordPress or PHP.
-
Does it upload my code anywhere?
-
No. File scanning runs locally on your server. WordPress.org API calls only fetch public metadata for known slugs.
-
Will scanning slow down my site?
-
Scans run in the admin (chunked) or via weekly cron. They do not run on front-end page loads.
