Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Excerpt Check
Yes. Excerpt Check fully supports both the Classic Editor and the Block Editor. It intercepts the publish action in both environments and displays a modal prompt.
It depends on the mode you choose. In Remind mode (the default), a prompt appears but you can dismiss it and publish without an excerpt. In Require mode, the prompt has no bypass option -- you must add an excerpt before publishing.
Go to Settings > Writing in your WordPress admin. The Excerpt Check options appear at the bottom of the page.
No. Excerpt Check only activates when you publish or schedule a post. It does not retroactively flag posts that were already published without excerpts.
Excerpt Check works with any post type that has excerpt support enabled. If your custom post type supports excerpts, the plugin will work with it automatically.
