Stalemate Notifier

Overview

StaleMate is a powerful content-maintenance assistant designed to keep your WordPress site fresh, accurate, and reliable. It automatically monitors the age of your posts, pages, and custom post types, ensuring outdated content is identified and reviewed before it becomes a problem. Whether you manage a large editorial workflow or simply want to keep your website current, StaleMate ensures nothing slips through the cracks.

Automated Content Monitoring

StaleMate continuously tracks when each piece of content was last reviewed or updated. Once an item exceeds the review period you define, the plugin triggers intelligent notifications—via email or dashboard alerts—to the appropriate users. This automated system helps keep your team on schedule and eliminates the guesswork around when content should be revisited.

Flexible Configuration

Every site has different needs, and StaleMate reflects that with complete flexibility:

• Set custom review periods for each post type
• Choose which content types to monitor
• Define who receives notifications
• Allow or restrict which roles can mark content as reviewed
• Exclude individual items or override settings per post

Whether you manage blog posts, documentation, or a mix of custom post types, StaleMate adapts to your workflow.

Per-Item Control & Visibility

Within each post or page, you can mark content as reviewed, view its status, or remove it from monitoring. StaleMate integrates seamlessly with both the Gutenberg block editor—via a dedicated sidebar panel—and the Classic Editor with a convenient metabox. This gives editors immediate insight and control where they need it most.

Activity Logging & Accountability

To support transparency and team oversight, StaleMate keeps a full activity log of review actions and notifications. You can see when content was reviewed, who triggered changes, and when alerts were sent—ideal for team environments, compliance-driven organizations, or editorial audits.

Modern Management Dashboard

StaleMate includes a polished, modern dashboard built for efficiency. Features include:

• Advanced filtering and sorting
• Search and pagination
• CSV exports for audits or reporting
• Bulk actions to manage multiple stale items
• A clean dark theme with persistent state
• Quick reset options for streamlined workflows

Large sites with extensive content libraries will especially appreciate the speed and clarity this interface brings.

Ideal Use Cases

StaleMate is perfect for:

• Content managers overseeing large or evolving websites
• Editorial teams with regular maintenance cycles
• Businesses with compliance or quality-control requirements
• Knowledge-base and documentation sites
• Anyone wanting consistent oversight of content freshness

Effortless Setup

Installation and configuration are straightforward. After activating the plugin, simply choose the post types you want to monitor, set your review periods, and define notification preferences. From that point forward, StaleMate handles the rest automatically.
