Typo Hunter

Typo Hunter is a lightweight proofreading tool for WordPress. A reader spots a typo, selects the incorrect text, and submits a correction in a simple modal. You get the report; your content gets better.

No external service. No complicated workflow. Just a fast way to turn readers into helpful contributors.

Core Features

🎯 Simple typo reporting

Visitors can click the “Report a typo” link below a post or select text and use Ctrl+Enter (Cmd+Enter on Mac) to open the reporting form.

📝 A focused review workflow

All reports are collected in the WordPress admin area, with the incorrect text, suggested correction, post, URL, and date available at a glance.

🛡️ Built-in abuse protection

Rate limiting and duplicate detection help keep the report queue useful without adding another anti-spam service.

⚡ Lightweight on the front end

Typo Hunter loads its assets only on single posts and pages. Report submissions use AJAX, so the plugin works well with page caching.

🎨 Easy to customize

The interface uses regular HTML and predictable typohunter-* CSS classes, making it straightforward to adapt to your theme.

🔒 Privacy-conscious by design

IP addresses are hashed for rate limiting and are not stored with reports. Inputs are sanitized, validated, and protected with WordPress nonces.

Pro Features

Typo Hunter Pro adds:

• Analytics with trends and most-reported posts
• Instant, daily, or weekly email notifications

How It Works

2. They select the incorrect text and press Ctrl+Enter or Cmd+Enter, or click the report link.
3. They enter the suggested correction and submit the report.
4. You review the report in Typo Hunter > Reports.
5. You correct the content and keep publishing with confidence.
