A Must-Have for WordPress Optimization!

I’ve been running BoltAudit on my WordPress site for the past few days, and it has quickly become an indispensable diagnostic tool for plugin and performance health.

It’s lightweight, developer-friendly, and incredibly transparent. Highly recommended for site owners and agencies looking to understand exactly what’s impacting performance—and how to fix it.

<h4>Tips</h4>
<p>A neat trick, is to put this single file admin-footer-version-rebranded.php (not its parent directory) in the /wp-content/mu-plugins/ directory (create it if not exists) so you won’t even have to enable it, and will be loaded by default, also, since first step installation of WordPress setup!</p>
<p>Also, for translation functionality, put all files of the single languages (admin-footer-version-rebranded-en_US.mo for example) that you need (not its parent directory) in the /wp-content/mu-plugins/ directory (create it if not exists) and will be loaded by default, they also, since first step installation of WordPress setup!</p>
<p>Note that mu-plugins functionality is available since WP 2.8+ or greater and is not present in WP 2.7+ or previous.</p>
<h4>About it</h4>
<p>The code of this plugin is not written with a PHP framework, but manually, with a simple PHP editor compatible UTF-8 without BOM, and Unix LF. To avoid code corruption, do not edit it with WordPress embedded editor, or with any specifications incompatible editor. This author is exonerated from any responsibility or damage (directly or indirectly) caused and due to the use of this bad practice.</p>
