# Divi Site Launch Audit

## Why use the Divi Site Launch Audit extension?

Every launch has the same last mile: the checks everyone means to do and someone forgets. An image without alt text, a "Sample Page" still published, a debug flag left on from staging. Site Launch Audit scans your published content and settings for exactly these launch blockers and lists them in one report.

It is a launch-readiness checklist, not another site inspector. Each finding is specific, graded critical, warning, or notice, and when it points at a page there is an edit link straight to it. Fix, rescan, hand the site over.

Included in Divi Torque Pro, along with every module and extension.

Why agencies run it before handoff

**Missing alt text**Finds images without alt text across your published pages, counted per page with a link to fix each one.

**Placeholder content**Catches a still-published "Sample Page" or "Hello world!" and flags lorem ipsum text as critical.

**Staging leftovers**Warns when PHP errors can leak to visitors, search engines are discouraged, or the site URL still looks like staging.

**Unused modules**Points out Torque modules that are enabled but unused on any page, so you can switch them off in Module Manager.

**Broken integrations**Flags a Mailer still on the placeholder SMTP host and a Google Reviews key with no place selected.

**Caching sanity check**Notes when no caching plugin is detected, with the honest caveat that many hosts cache at the server level.

## Everything the Divi Site Launch Audit extension does

Six checks across your published content and settings, each finding graded and actionable.

Scans published pages for images missing alt text

Flags default "Sample Page" and "Hello world!" content still published

Marks lorem ipsum placeholder text as critical

Warns when WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY can leak PHP errors to visitors

Warns when "Discourage search engines" is still checked

Notices site URLs that look like staging or local hostnames

Lists enabled Torque modules that no page actually uses

Flags half-configured Mailer SMTP and Google Reviews integrations

Notes when no page or object caching plugin is detected

One-click rescan, results cached for an hour and refreshed when you save content

## See the Divi Site Launch Audit in action

Three severities, so you always know what blocks launch and what can wait.

Critical

Fix before launch. Lorem ipsum on a live page or PHP errors visible to visitors.

CRITICAL

Warning

Should be handled. Missing alt text, discouraged search engines, half-set integrations.

WARNING

Notice

Worth a look. Staging-like hostnames, unused modules, no caching detected.

NOTICE

Automated checks, human judgment

The audit covers what a scan can verify. You still review the rest.

The scan verifies

Content, settings, and integration state across up to 300 published items, entirely server side.

You still test

Forms, responsive layouts, and checkout flows are judgment calls a scanner cannot make for you.

Then rescan

Every fix is one rescan away from a clean report you can hand to the client.

## Three steps to a clean handoff

1**Enable the audit**In Divi Torque, open Settings, then Quality, and switch Site Launch Audit on.

2**Review the report**Open Site Launch Audit from the menu. Findings are sorted by severity, each with an edit link when it points at a page.

3**Fix and rescan**Work through the list, hit Rescan, and repeat until the report says no issues found.

## Divi Site Launch Audit FAQ

**What exactly does it check?**Six things: images missing alt text, placeholder content including lorem ipsum, staging and debug indicators, enabled but unused Torque modules, half-configured Mailer and Google Reviews integrations, and whether a caching plugin is present.

**Does it check for broken links or missing SEO titles?**No. The audit runs entirely on your server without crawling, so link checking and SEO metadata are out of scope. Use it alongside your SEO plugin, not instead of one.

**Will the scan slow my site down?**No. It runs server side when you open the report, covers up to 300 published items per content check, and the result is cached for an hour. Saving content refreshes it.

**Is it a full accessibility or performance audit?**No, and it does not pretend to be. It is a launch-readiness checklist. Contrast, ARIA, focus order, and performance profiling need dedicated tools and human review.

**Who can see the report?**Administrators only. The report and the rescan action both require the manage_options capability.

**Is Site Launch Audit free?**No. It is part of Divi Torque Pro, along with every Pro module and extension.
