# Plugin Nexus Sodium Compatibility Checker v3

This checker is provided by Plugin Nexus to help customers confirm whether their WordPress hosting can run **PINXS Income & Expenses Manager** before purchasing or installing it.

## What this checker does

The checker loads the WordPress runtime and then checks whether the Sodium functions required by PINXS Income & Expenses Manager are available.

This is important because some sites may not report the native PHP Sodium extension as loaded, but the required Sodium-compatible functions are still available inside WordPress.

## The result customers should look for

If the page says:

```text
PASS: PINXS Income & Expenses Manager should work on this server.
```

then the server passes the encryption compatibility check for the plugin.

If the page says:

```text
FAIL: PINXS Income & Expenses Manager may not work on this server yet.
```

the customer should contact their host and ask them to enable PHP Sodium.

## How to use

1. Unzip this package.
2. Upload `plugin-nexus-sodium-compatibility-check.php` to the root folder of the WordPress site you want to test.
3. Visit it in your browser.

Example:

```text
https://yourdomain.com/plugin-nexus-sodium-compatibility-check.php
```

4. Read the result at the top of the page.
5. Delete the file from your server immediately after testing.

## Suggested hosting support message

```text
Please enable the PHP Sodium extension for my hosting account. I need it for a WordPress plugin that uses Sodium for passphrase security and database encryption.
```
