Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Plugin Compatibility Checker

You must subscribe to the $1/month entry plan and activate your license to see compatibility results. Without license activation, visibility will be limited. Pro unlocks dashboard analytics, notifications and vulnerability insights.

Starting with WordPress 7.0, database requirements are stricter (MySQL 8.0+ / MariaDB 10.6+). If your hosting is outdated, your site may not receive updates.

Not immediately, but your site may stop receiving future WordPress updates, which can lead to security risks.

This usually means the plugin is either custom/premium or its version has been removed from WordPress.org.

Yes, please click Rescan to include new plugins in the compatibility check.
