How do I read my Faaaster site's integrity check?

The Check integrity button, in the site's Security tab, compares WordPress core and plugin files to their official versions. The result tells you whether your site is Intact or whether some files differ, and which ones.


How to read the result


The check compares your site's core and plugin files to the official WordPress.org checksums: it spots what has been modified compared to a clean installation.


The result takes one of these values:


Result

What it means

Intact

No differences: the files match the official versions.

Differences detected

Some files differ โ€” see the details below.

Error

The check couldn't be completed.


Each difference is categorized: file Modified, Missing, Added, or Other.


A difference isn't necessarily an infection. A file modified on purpose โ€” a misplaced child theme, a customization in the core โ€” shows up too. It's an accumulation of added files in the core directories that should raise a red flag.


The Vulnerabilities section, in the same tab, lists the detected vulnerabilities.
