Editorial Workflow Manager

Editorial Workflow Manager at a glance

Is Editorial Workflow Manager well maintained?

• Gutenberg-native workflow — the checklist lives directly inside the WordPress block editor
• Reusable checklist templates — create a repeatable process once and use it across content
• Required and Optional items — distinguish publishing requirements from helpful guidance
• Automatic requirements — check featured images, excerpts, word count, category/tag presence, and image alternative text without manual confirmation
• Developer rule API — add code-defined automatic requirements from a separate plugin, with optional live Gutenberg evaluation
• Helper text and reference links — give authors context without leaving the checklist
• Checklist template duplication — clone and customize existing workflows
• Per-post checklist progress — each post or page maintains its own completion state
• Readiness tracking — see Ready or Incomplete status throughout the editor and post list
• Non-blocking pre-publish guidance — warn authors about missing required items without preventing publication
• Post-type mapping — use different checklists for different types of content
• Starter templates — begin with practical workflows for blogging, fact-checking, accessibility, and client review
