Admin Notice Helper That Survives Redirects
Adds a wpide_flash_notice() helper that queues a success, warning or error message for the current user and shows it on the next admin screen, even after a redirect.
Snippet Library
Developer snippets for WordPress
Snippets for developers: debugging helpers, custom cron schedules, body classes, REST API tweaks and admin tools for checking hooks and queries. Building blocks for people who write code for WordPress every day.
Allow JSON, CSV and Other Data File Uploads
Lets administrators upload data files such as JSON, CSV, XML and Markdown to the Media Library, which WordPress blocks by default.
Delete Expired Transients From the Admin Bar
Adds a toolbar button for administrators that removes expired transients from the database in one click, keeping the options table lean.
Different Admin Color Scheme per Environment
Switches the admin color scheme automatically on local, development and staging sites, so nobody mistakes a test copy for the live site while editing.
Environment Name in the Browser Tab Title
Prefixes browser tab titles with [LOCAL], [DEV] or [STAGING] for logged-in users on non-production sites, in the admin and on the front end, so open tabs are easy to tell apart.
Flush Permalinks From the Admin Bar
Adds a "Flush permalinks" link to the admin bar for administrators that rebuilds the rewrite rules in one click, handy after registering post types or custom rewrite rules.
Flush the Object Cache From the Admin Bar
Adds a toolbar button for administrators that empties the object cache (Redis, Memcached or the built-in cache) after deployments or data fixes.
Inspect the Main Query and Its SQL
Lets administrators add ?wpide_query=1 to a front-end URL to print the main query's variables, the SQL it ran and the number of posts found at the bottom of the page.
List Enqueued Scripts and Styles in the Page Source
Prints an HTML comment at the bottom of each page, visible to administrators, listing every script and stylesheet handle loaded and its source, to find what to optimize.
List Every Database Query on a Page for Administrators
When SAVEQUERIES is enabled, lets administrators add ?wpide_queries=1 to a front-end URL to see every SQL query of the page with its time and calling function, slowest first.
List Every Hook Fired on a Page
Lets administrators add ?wpide_hooks=1 to any front-end URL to see, at the bottom of the page, every action and filter that ran and how many times, in firing order.
Mark Each Block in the Page Source for Administrators
Wraps every rendered block in HTML comments with its name, such as core/group or a plugin's block, when an administrator views a page with ?wpide_blocks=1, to see which block produced which markup.
Object Cache Hit Rate in the Admin Bar
Shows administrators the object cache hit rate, hits and misses for the current page in the admin bar, to check whether Redis or Memcached is actually helping.
PHP Info Screen for Administrators
Adds a Tools > PHP Info screen showing the full phpinfo() report (extensions, limits, configuration), handy when a host's control panel does not show it.
Query Count and Load Time in the Page Source
Adds an HTML comment at the bottom of front-end and admin pages with the number of database queries, generation time and peak memory. Visible to administrators only.
REST API Link for the Current Item in the Admin Bar
Adds a "REST" link to the front-end admin bar for administrators that opens the JSON for the post, page, term or author being viewed, which speeds up headless and integration work.
Read-Only Custom Fields Viewer for Administrators
Adds a box to the post editor that lists every custom field stored for the post, hidden ones included, with serialized arrays and JSON shown in a readable layout. Nothing can be changed from it.
Readable Variable Dump for Administrators
Adds a wpide_dump() helper that shows any variable in a readable, collapsible box only to administrators, so debug output never reaches visitors even if you forget to remove it.
Register an "Archived" Post Status
Adds an "Archived" status for posts that should leave the site without being deleted, with its own filter link in the Posts list and a status choice in the editor.
Rename "Posts" to "Articles" in the Admin
Changes the labels of the built-in Posts type to "Articles" across the admin menu, screens and editor, for sites where "posts" means something else.
Searchable Options Viewer Under Tools
Adds a Tools > Options Viewer screen where administrators can search the options table by name and see each value decoded and pretty-printed, including serialized arrays that Settings > All hides.
Send PHP Values to the Browser Console
Adds a wpide_console() helper that prints any PHP variable to the browser's developer console for administrators, so you can inspect data without breaking the page layout.
Show Outgoing HTTP Requests in the Admin Bar
Counts the external HTTP requests WordPress, plugins and themes make while building a page, and lists each URL, status and time in an admin bar menu for administrators.
Show PHP Errors to Administrators With ?debug=1
Lets administrators see PHP warnings and notices on screen by adding ?wpide_debug=1 to any address, while visitors and other users never see them, even with WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY off.
