Measure How Long Code Takes
Adds wpide_timer_start() and wpide_timer_stop() helpers that measure the time and memory a piece of code uses and write the result to the PHP error log, to find slow functions.
Snippet Library
WordPress code snippets, ready to use
3,040 free snippets from the WPIDE team and the community. Copy the code, or add any snippet to your site in one click with WPIDE.
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.
Point "Create a Site" Links to Your Own Signup Page
Replaces the network's default wp-signup.php address in links and redirects with a custom page, such as a pricing or onboarding page, while keeping the real signup form available.
Protect wp-cron.php From Outside Requests
Requires a secret key for requests to wp-cron.php and adds that key automatically to WordPress's own cron calls, so outsiders cannot hammer the endpoint to slow your site down.
Protect wp-login.php With a Secret Key
Hides the login page behind a secret link: wp-login.php returns "Not Found" unless you have opened it with your key once in this browser.
Redirect New Users After Registration
Sends people to a page of your choice (for example a welcome page) after they register through wp-login.php.
Redirect Old .html Page Addresses
Sends visitors from addresses of a previous static site, such as /about.html or /services/web.php, to the WordPress page with the same name.
Redirect the Default Registration Page
Sends visitors who open wp-login.php?action=register to your own registration page.
Redirect wp-signup.php When Registration Is Closed
Sends visitors who land on wp-signup.php to a page you choose (or the homepage) when network registration is turned off, instead of showing a bare "Registration has been disabled" screen.
Register ACF Fields in Code
A ready-to-edit example that registers an ACF field group (subtitle, summary and call-to-action link) for posts in PHP, so the fields are version-controlled and cannot be changed in the admin.
Register Page Templates From a Folder Outside the Theme
Adds every PHP file in wp-content/page-templates/ to the page Template menu of classic themes, so custom layouts survive theme switches and updates.
Reject Login Attempts That Don't Come From Your Login Form
Refuses login form submissions that are not sent from a page on your own site, which stops many brute-force bots that post straight to wp-login.php.
Reject Uploads That Contain PHP Code
Scans every uploaded file that is not a PHP file for hidden PHP code (such as an image with a PHP payload) and refuses the upload if any is found.
Remove the X-Mailer Header From Emails
Stops outgoing emails announcing "PHPMailer" and its version in the X-Mailer header, which reveals details about your server and can count against you in spam filters.
Run WP-Cron From a Real Cron Job
Stops WordPress from checking for scheduled tasks on every page view; you trigger wp-cron.php from your server's cron instead, which is faster and more reliable.
Send Email Through SMTP
Routes all WordPress email through an SMTP server, using credentials stored as constants in wp-config.php rather than in the database.
Send Logged-In Users Away From the Login Page
When someone who is already logged in opens wp-login.php, they go straight to the dashboard (or the homepage for subscribers) instead of seeing the form again.
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.
Send WordPress Email Through the Postmark API
Delivers all WordPress emails through Postmark's HTTP API instead of PHP mail or SMTP, for fast, reliable delivery on hosts that block outgoing mail ports.
Send WordPress Email Through the SendGrid API
Delivers all WordPress emails through SendGrid's v3 Mail Send API instead of PHP mail or SMTP, for reliable delivery and SendGrid's activity feed.
Server and Site Info Widget
Adds a dashboard widget with the PHP, database and WordPress versions, memory limit, upload limit and active theme at a glance.
Server-Timing Header for Administrators
Adds a Server-Timing header with PHP time, database query count and peak memory to pages viewed by administrators, so you can read the numbers in your browser's developer tools Network tab.
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.
Show PHP Version, Memory and Queries in the Admin Footer
Replaces the WordPress version in the bottom right of admin screens with the PHP version, peak memory use and database query count of the current page.
