category filter

Category Filter matters only if the evidence supports a paid workflow around keeping publishing, media, and editorial handoffs consistent, not a list of isolated fixes. The current commercial thesis is: Content-heavy WordPress teams lose time when formatting, media, duplicate content, and publishing handoffs drift across sites. The entry wedge is to audit publishing workflows, detect inconsistent content operations, and package fix-ready editorial reports.
