Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview
About this plugin
After you replace or update a PDF in the Media Library, clients and agencies often need a quick answer: which pages still point at this file, and does the public URL match the file on disk?
Aschere PDF Reference Verifier (free) is a read-only Tools screen that:
Lets an administrator pick one local PDF from the Media Library
Scans core post and page body content (including the core File block) for direct file URLs
Lists referencing pages and their public/publish status
Shows local size, mtime, and SHA-256
Optionally fetches the attachment URL once from this site only (SSRF-safe host check) and compares the hash
Builds a plain-text delivery snapshot you can copy or download
This plugin does not replace files, edit content, or change download permissions.
