About RelatioScope
From the official readme · v1.0Description
RelatioScope helps WordPress administrators explore known relationships between site content and selected WordPress components before making changes.
It indexes locally detected relationships and provides search, where-used, dependency, impact, and pre-change review tools.
RelatioScope does not use AI, external APIs, telemetry, analytics, or cloud processing. Core analysis runs locally inside WordPress.
What RelatioScope does
- Search and Where Used
- Impact Explorer and Dependency Explorer
- Scan Coverage and index health
- Reports and CSV export
- Pre-Change Impact Check for selected admin actions (post/page deletion, media deletion, and plugin deactivation)
What RelatioScope does not do
- It does not guarantee that every dependency or reference is discovered.
- It does not guarantee that deleting or deactivating something will break or not break the site.
- It does not block WordPress actions.
- It does not modify content automatically.
- It does not use AI or send site data to external services.
- It does not require an external account or internet connection for core functionality.
Privacy
- All relationship analysis occurs locally on your WordPress installation.
- No AI is used.
- No external AI service is used.
- No telemetry is collected.
- No analytics or tracking is included.
- No external account is required.
- No cloud processing occurs.
- No API key is required.
- Core features work with outbound network access disabled.
Limitations
RelatioScope can only report relationships that can be identified through WordPress data and supported detection methods. Some references may not be detectable, especially references stored by third-party plugins, custom PHP, arbitrary options, or unknown custom field schemas.
Relationship confidence is labeled Confirmed, Detected, or Possible. Declared plugin header requirements are labeled separately from detected content relationships.
Pre-Change Impact Check is informational. Administrators can always Continue or Cancel. Bulk delete/trash/deactivate actions are not intercepted in this version.
Multisite: each site uses its own prefixed tables. Network-wide indexing and network admin UI are not supported in this version.
Installation
- Upload the plugin to
/wp-content/plugins/relatioscope - Activate through the Plugins screen
- Go to RelatioScope → Dashboard and click Rebuild Index
- Process remaining batches until the queue is empty
Frequently asked questions
Does this use AI?
No. Analysis is deterministic and local.
Do I need an API key or internet access?
No. After installation, core features work offline.
Will indexing find every possible dependency?
No. Only relationships detectable through WordPress data and supported detectors are reported. See Scan Coverage in the admin UI.
Does Pre-Change Impact Check block deletions?
No. It shows known relationships from the current index, then lets you Continue or Cancel. WordPress remains in control.
Does deleting the plugin remove my content?
No. Uninstall removes only RelatioScope’s own custom tables and options. WordPress posts, pages, media, menus, plugins, themes, users, and other plugins’ data are not removed. Deactivation does not uninstall data.
Does it work on Multisite?
RelatioScope stores data per site using the current site table prefix. There is no network-wide index or network admin UI in this version.
Are bulk actions covered by Impact Check?
Not in this version. Bulk delete, bulk trash, and bulk plugin deactivation use normal WordPress behavior without an Impact Check interstitial.
