Priskribo
Form Finder for Ninja Forms scans every public post type to locate Ninja Forms shortcodes, blocks, and popular page-builder widgets, then presents the results in an accessible WordPress admin screen. The interface follows WordPress design guidance, uses proper escaping, and caches scan results to keep your dashboard fast.
Highlights
- Discovers embeds created via shortcodes, Gutenberg blocks, Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, and more.
- Groups results by page so site owners immediately see which content references each form.
- One-click rescan with nonce protection, capability checks, and object caching to keep things secure and performant.
- Follows WordPress coding standards, internationalization best practices, and ships with a ready-to-translate POT file.
