A ConciseIT WordPress plugin

SignoffCanvas

Self-hosted, versioned image and PDF proofing with precise client feedback and a trustworthy approval receipt tied to the exact file.

  • Images and PDFs
  • Private review links
  • Versioned approval history

Proofing without the SaaS sprawl

One private link. Every round preserved.

SignoffCanvas gives WordPress freelancers and small agencies a focused place to share a proof, collect contextual feedback, and record a clear decision without moving the work into a separate project-management platform.

Proof files, review links, comments, reviewer details, and approval records stay on the WordPress host. Replacing a file creates a new round instead of erasing the discussion around the previous one.

01

Share privately

Send an unguessable guest link, set an expiration, close access temporarily, or regenerate the link when it should change.

02

Review precisely

Pin image feedback, add PDF page context, reply to comments, and resolve completed items before a final decision.

03

Approve the file

Lock an approved round and preserve the reviewer, decision time, round number, and SHA-256 file fingerprint in the receipt.

The workflow

From upload to a defensible handoff.

SignoffCanvas dashboard showing reviews in progress, changes requested, and approved
See what needs attention. A dedicated dashboard keeps active and completed reviews visible without mixing proofs into regular posts.
WordPress review editor showing proof upload, private-link controls, and version history
Publish a controlled review. Upload a JPG, PNG, WebP, or PDF, add instructions, and manage the private link and retained proof rounds.
Client review page showing image pins, replies, resolution, and decision controls
Keep feedback in context. Reviewers comment directly on the image, reply, resolve work, and request changes without a WordPress account.
Approved PDF proof showing version history and a file-fingerprinted approval receipt
Preserve the decision. Approval locks the exact round and records a printable receipt; only an audited administrator action can reopen it.

Privacy and control

Your client work stays on your site.

Proof files live outside the public Media Library and are served only after private-link validation. SignoffCanvas does not send proof files, private links, feedback, reviewer names, reviewer email addresses, or approval fingerprints to Freemius.

Business webhooks are separately configured by an administrator. They send only workflow metadata such as review and round IDs, title, status, entry IDs, and counts to the chosen HTTPS endpoint—never the private link, proof, reviewer identity, or feedback text.

Deactivation and uninstall retain customer data by default. WordPress privacy export and erasure handlers cover feedback associated with reviewer email addresses.

Server note: Apache protection is installed automatically. Nginx and other servers that ignore .htaccess require an explicit deny rule for the private upload directory.

Questions

Before you share a proof.

Do reviewers need a WordPress account?

No. Possession of the unguessable private review link authorizes access and feedback. You can expire, close, or regenerate that link.

Is an approval a legal electronic signature?

No. SignoffCanvas records a practical project-workflow approval tied to an exact proof file; it is not a legally binding electronic-signature service.

What happens when a proof is replaced?

The replacement becomes a new round. Earlier files, comments, and decisions remain available as read-only history.

Are Pro and Business available now?

Yes. Free, Pro, and Business are available now through the links above. Freemius fulfills the downloads and paid trials, manages licenses and billing, and provides the ConciseIT Customer Portal.

Where do customers get support?

Use the private ConciseIT contact form for installation help, defect reports, security concerns, or anything containing sensitive review information. Active paid plans target an initial response within two business days.
