WordPress 5.5 introduced a way to differentiate between environment types (development, staging, production). This plugin shows your site’s environment type in the admin bar and the dashboard “At a Glance” widget.
<a href="https://make.wordpress.org/core/2020/07/24/new-wp_get_environment_type-function-in-wordpress-5-5/" rel="nofollow ugc">More info about the feature</a>
To gain additional control — for example, setting the environment or other values from the WP admin (when <code>wp-config.php</code> is writable) — consider installing our other plugin <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/0-day-analytics/" rel="ugc">0 Day Analytics</a>.
<h3>Recommended Plugins</h3>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/0-day-analytics/" rel="ugc">0 Day Analytics</a> — a powerful plugin for sites that need more insight into errors and runtime behavior. It includes a Cron manager, a Transient manager (database-backed), DB manager, Snippet manager, Mail manager, Plugin Version Switcher available from the Plugins page and many more.</li>
</ul>

Display Environment Type

Have you ever accidentally added test content to a productive website?

You can now define a constant in your wp-config.php to distinguish between development, staging and productuion sites. To make this visible, this lean but helpful plugin adds an indicator to the admin bar and dashboard widget which helps to avoid mistakes as adding "Lorem ipsum" to your productive site. :)

Plugin works like a charm. No settings needed. Install, activate and feel happy.

Nice little helper


Five stars for Display Environment Type! 



Huge thanks to the author for creating this gem. The plugin might be small, but it's incredibly useful, doing exactly what you'd expect without any unnecessary clutter. No settings hassle – just install and get to work seamlessly.
