If the link breaks, see the channel archive instead. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EoH8VHTtaDQ ## 📝 Summary - Equalize Digital demos Accessibility Checker’s WP-CLI commands. - They show post stats, site stats, cleanup, and license actions. - Free users can read site-level stats via CLI, not the dashboard. - Cleanup tooling removes orphaned issues after post-type changes or deletions. - Bottom line: WP-CLI enables automation, CI use, and host integrations. ## 📖 Main Content - WP-CLI manages WordPress from the terminal. It boots WordPress for parity. - Accessibility Checker exposes CLI for post stats, site stats, cleanup, and licensing. - Free plugin users can still query site stats using the CLI. The dashboard view remains Pro. - Cleanup CLI helps after migrations. It speeds queries by removing orphaned rows. - License commands let hosts activate or deactivate keys programmatically. - Uncertainties: exact command availability across versions; host restrictions for SSH access. ### 🗒️ Notes #### ⏱️ [00:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EoH8VHTtaDQ&t=5) Stream setup ### [H1] Session focuses on Accessibility Checker CLI > [!quote] [From Dashboard to Terminal](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EoH8VHTtaDQ) by an unnamed author via [[YouTube]].
