Create and maintain the operating manual your WordPress site needs for ownership, maintenance, handoff, and recovery.

== Description ==

Site Operations Binder makes a WordPress site understandable, maintainable, and recoverable without relying on one person's memory.

It combines a conservative live inventory with the human context an inventory cannot know: why a component exists, who owns it, where the authoritative account or license is referenced, what routine work must happen, and how service is restored and verified after a failure.

The interface stays centered on one action: **Continue the binder**. It opens the next highest-value missing, changed, or stale operating detail.

= Included =

* Site profile and ownership records.
* Installed, active, inactive, and network plugin inventory.
* Supported form-system and precise external-integration suggestions.
* Grouped non-core WordPress cron work.
* Hosting, DNS, backup, maintenance, and recovery records.
* Completion, freshness, source-change, and missing-source states.
* Printable HTML handoff and versioned JSON backup.
* Merge-first import with explicit overwrite and no delete behavior.
* Optional status-only review reminders.
* Preserve-by-default uninstall behavior.

= Intentionally excluded =

Site Operations Binder does not monitor uptime, performance, security, vulnerabilities, or compliance. It does not execute updates, backups, restores, DNS changes, or maintenance procedures. It does not store passwords, API keys, private keys, full license keys, recovery codes, or other credentials.

No external HTTP requests or telemetry are used. Binder details remain private inside WordPress administration.

== Installation ==

1. Upload the plugin ZIP through **Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin**.
2. Activate **Site Operations Binder**.
3. Open **Operations Binder** in WordPress administration.
4. Follow **Continue the binder** to document the next required operating detail.
5. Use **Refresh inventory** after material site changes.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Is this another site audit or health scanner? =

No. Discovery supplies current context, but the product is a maintained operating manual. It does not assign health, risk, or danger scores.

= Does it store passwords or API keys? =

No. Store credentials in an appropriate password manager or vault. Enter only the account name, owner, URL, or vault reference needed to locate the authoritative record.

= Does it send binder data anywhere? =

No external HTTP requests or telemetry are used. Optional email reminders include only completion status and the next action, not binder field values.

= What happens when an automatically discovered component disappears? =

Previously documented components remain visible as no longer detected until an administrator updates or archives them. This preserves operational history without claiming the component is still active.

= What happens when the plugin is uninstalled? =

Binder records are preserved by default. An administrator can explicitly enable record deletion in Review settings before uninstalling.

= Does it support multisite? =

Records are site-local. Network activation installs storage lazily when each site's administrator opens WordPress administration, avoiding an unbounded network-wide request. Uninstall cleanup is intentionally limited to the current site.
