Run these quick checks first.

Many LemonX issues are caused by environment settings, outdated versions, cache, license status, API provider configuration or plugin conflicts. Before opening a ticket, complete these basic checks.

1

Confirm the product is installed and active

Go to: WordPress Dashboard > Plugins. Make sure the related LemonX plugin is installed and activated.

  • LemonX AEO
  • LemonX Code
  • LemonX Verto
  • LemonX MCP
  • LemonX Pro
  • LemonX Theme

If the product is missing, install it first.

  • License key

License Help
4

Check system status

If license verification, cloud gateway, updates, AI requests, indexing or MCP services are not working, check the LemonX status page.

  • License Service
  • Cloud Gateway
  • Update Server
  • AI Gateway
  • Indexing Service
  • MCP Service
Check System Status
5

Clear cache

Caching can sometimes make changes appear broken or outdated.

  • Browser cache
  • WordPress cache
  • Server cache
  • CDN cache
  • Object cache
  • Page builder cache

Then test again in a private browser window.

6

Test with a small workflow

Before running a large workflow, test one small action.

Examples:

  • Analyze one page
  • Generate one draft
  • Translate one page
  • Submit one URL
  • Connect one MCP client
  • Activate one license
  • Run one AI request

If the small workflow works, the issue may be related to batch size, timeout, quota or server limits.

7

Review recent changes

Think about what changed before the issue appeared.

Examples:

  • LemonX update
  • WordPress update
  • Theme update
  • New plugin installed
  • Cache plugin changed
  • Security plugin changed
  • Hosting migration
  • PHP version changed
  • AI provider key changed
  • License renewal failed
8

Temporarily test for conflicts

On a staging site, temporarily disable non-essential plugins and switch to a default theme to test whether the issue is caused by a conflict.

Do not disable plugins on a production site unless you understand the impact. Use staging whenever possible.
