## Opis

WordPress site owners publish blog posts and pages, then forget about them. Over
time, content becomes outdated — old statistics, missing internal links, thin word
counts, and low engagement signal that a post is losing value.

Decaywatcher runs a weekly background scan across all published posts and assigns
each one a content health score (0–100) based on real WordPress data:

 * **Post age** — how recently the post was updated
 * **Word count** — whether the content is substantial enough
 * **Comment count** — whether readers are engaging with the post

Posts that fall below your configured threshold are flagged in an admin report with
rule-based suggestions for improvement — before rankings drop.

The source code, including uncompiled assets and build tools, is publicly available
at:
 https://github.com/GauriDevWork/content-decay-detector

#### Features

 * **Automatic weekly scanning** via WP Cron — processes posts in batches to avoid
   timeouts
 * **Content health scoring (0–100)** — based on post age, word count, and comment
   count
 * **Rule-based suggestions** — refresh title, add internal links, update statistics,
   expand content
 * **Admin report table** — sortable by score with score range filter
 * **Dashboard widget** — top 5 most decayed posts at a glance
 * **Weekly email digest** — sends flagged posts to admin email automatically
 * **REST API endpoint** — GET /wp-json/content-decay/v1/reports for external integrations
 * **Gutenberg sidebar panel** — shows decay score inside the block editor for the
   post being edited
 * **Bulk actions** — mark posts as reviewed or exclude from scanning

## Instalacija

 1. Upload the plugin folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or install directly
    through the WordPress plugins screen.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** screen in WordPress Admin.
 3. The `wp_decay_snapshots` database table is created automatically on activation.
 4. Navigate to **Settings  Decaywatcher** to configure the decay threshold and email
    notifications.
 5. Navigate to **Tools  Decay Report** to view flagged posts.

## ČPP

### How is the content health score calculated?

The score (0–100) is calculated from three real WordPress data points: how recently
the post was updated (up to 50 points), the post word count (up to 30 points), and
the number of comments (up to 20 points). No external API or third-party service
is required.

### Will this plugin slow down my site?

No. The scan runs via WP Cron in the background on a weekly schedule. It processes
posts in batches of 50 to avoid memory and timeout issues. Nothing runs on the front
end.

### What happens to my data if I uninstall the plugin?

All plugin data is removed on uninstall — the database table, all options, and the
scheduled cron event are deleted automatically.

### What does the decay score mean?

A score of 100 means the post is healthy — recently updated, substantial content,
good engagement. A score below your configured threshold (default 30) means the 
post needs attention.

### Does this work with Multisite?

Multisite support is planned for a future release. The current version works on 
single-site installations only.
