All insecure elements are flagged before the content is published, and can be fixed manually or simply by clicking “fix it.” Compatible with the “classic” editor as well as the block editor (aka Gutenberg). ### Technical Notes * Requires PHP 7.4+. * Requires a secure / SSL (HTTPS) website, front and back end. ### Usage This plugin requires no configuration. Simply activate and the plugin will prevent posts with insecure elements from being published, as well as provide a banner with information on the offending assets. ### Optional WP-CLI Commands These are not required for normal usage of the plugin, but are available as a utility for more advanced usage. #### wp icw fix Used to fix insecure elements in existing content. Can target specific posts or bulk batches. ``` wp icw fix [] [--include] [--all] [--post_type] [--limit] [--offset] [--dry-run] ``` Example: `$ wp icw fix --all --post_type=page Checking post content...
