No frameworks, no npm, no bundlers—just open index.html locally or host it on GitHub Pages.

A WordPress plugin written in php that blocks publishing until predefined editorial checks are passed: title min/max length, optional slug-in-English validation, and required featured image with min/max dimension rules. It intercepts publish attempts via WordPress hooks; when a rule fails it reverts the post to Draft and shows a clear admin error explaining what to fix. Settings live under 'Settings/Prepublish Checks'.This plugin is ideal for all wordpress multi-author news sites where appearance-consistency and image-quality matters.
