Disable WooCommerce Analytics and Admin Extras
Turns off WooCommerce Analytics, the React-based admin home, onboarding and marketing screens, which noticeably speeds up the admin on smaller stores.
Snippet Library
Performance snippets for WordPress
Snippets that make WordPress lighter and faster: remove emoji scripts and embeds, control the Heartbeat API, limit revisions and load scripts only where they are needed. For developers and site owners chasing better Core Web Vitals.
Disable WooCommerce Cart Fragments Outside the Shop
Stops the cart fragments script, which fires an extra uncached AJAX request on every page, everywhere except the shop, product, cart and checkout pages.
Disable oEmbed Discovery and the Embed Script
Stops your site from acting as an oEmbed provider: removes the discovery links, the embed REST route and the wp-embed script. Embedding YouTube and similar services keeps working.
Disable the Emoji Script and Styles
Removes the emoji detection script, inline styles and DNS prefetch that WordPress adds to every page. Browsers still display emoji natively.
Disable the Heartbeat API Except in the Post Editor
Keeps the Heartbeat API (autosave and post locking) in the editor but turns it off on every other admin and front-end page to save server requests.
Do Not Lazy-Load the First Images
Tells WordPress to skip lazy loading for the first three images on a page, which usually improves Largest Contentful Paint.
Duplicate Database Queries Report for Administrators
Add ?wpide_queries=1 to any page while logged in as an administrator to see, at the bottom of the page, the queries that ran more than once and the ten slowest queries, with the code that called them.
Empty the Trash After 7 Days
Permanently removes trashed posts, pages and comments after 7 days instead of 30, keeping the database lean.
Fast 404 for Missing Images, Scripts and Styles
Answers requests for missing images, CSS, JavaScript and font files with a tiny 404 instead of loading a full theme page, saving server time.
Find What Is Calling admin-ajax.php
Counts admin-ajax.php requests per action (and whether they come from the front end or the dashboard) for the current day and the previous six, and shows the busiest ones under Tools > AJAX Usage.
Find and Remove Orphaned Cron Events
Adds Tools > Orphaned Cron Events, listing scheduled tasks that no active plugin or theme handles any more (often left by uninstalled plugins) and removing them after you confirm.
Inline Critical CSS From Your Theme
Prints the contents of a critical.css file from your active theme folder directly in the page head, so above-the-fold content is styled before the main stylesheet finishes loading.
Inline Small Block Stylesheets Instead of Loading Files
Lets WordPress print more of the small per-block stylesheets directly in the page instead of as separate files, which saves several network requests on pages with many different blocks.
Keep Speculative Loading Away From Cart, Checkout and Account Pages
Tells WordPress's built-in speculative loading (prefetching pages on hover) to skip cart, checkout and account pages, which are personal, never cached and expensive to build, so hovering over their links no longer costs server time.
Keep WooCommerce Logs for 7 Days
Makes WooCommerce delete its log entries (payment gateways, shipping, webhooks and more) after 7 days instead of 30, keeping the log table and folder small.
Limit Post Revisions
Keeps only the five most recent revisions of each post, which stops the database from growing with old copies.
Load Block Styles Only for Blocks on the Page
Replaces the single large block stylesheet with small per-block styles that load only when a block is actually used, which helps classic themes most.
Load Contact Form 7 Assets Only Where a Form Is Used
Keeps Contact Form 7 scripts and styles off every page except those that contain a form, removing two requests from most pages.
Load Selected Stylesheets Without Blocking Rendering
Loads the stylesheets you choose in the background so they no longer delay the first paint, ideal for CSS of things below the fold like sliders or forms.
Load comment-reply.js Only When Needed
Stops the threaded comments script from loading on pages that have no open comments or where threading is turned off.
Load the WooCommerce Password Strength Meter Only When Needed
Removes the password strength meter script (about 400 KB with its dictionary) from every page except the account, checkout and password reset pages where customers actually choose a password.
Log Pages That Run Too Many Database Queries
Records front-end URLs that run more database queries than a limit you set, with the query count and load time, and lists the worst offenders under Tools > Heavy Pages.
Log Scheduled Tasks That Take Too Long
Measures how long each scheduled task (cron event) takes to run and records the slow ones under Tools > Slow Cron Tasks, so you can spot the plugin that makes WP-Cron sluggish.
Log Slow Outgoing HTTP Requests
Times every request your site makes to other servers (update checks, APIs, license servers) and records the ones slower than a second under Tools > Slow HTTP Calls, so you can find what is holding up page loads.
