View on WordPress

Jigar Pandya – Similar Content Scanner compares the published posts and pages on your own WordPress site and flags pairs that look alike, so you can review overlapping content before it piles up.

It runs entirely on your server, using PHP’s built-in similar_text() function to compare titles and body content. There are no external API calls and no data ever leaves your site.

How It Works

Choose which public post types to scan, set separate similarity thresholds for titles and content, and set a minimum content length to exclude short boilerplate text (like repeated contact blurbs or notices). Then run a scan from your WordPress dashboard.

Flagged pairs appear in a results table with direct links to edit each item, and a “Similar?” column is added to your post and page list tables so flagged items are visible at a glance.

The plugin only identifies potential matches — it never deletes, merges, or edits content automatically. You decide whether a flagged pair should be rewritten, consolidated, or left as-is.
