<p>CiviCRM Admin Utilities modifies CiviCRM’s behaviour in single site and multisite installs. It does a number of useful things:</p>
<ul>
<li>Supplies a theme for CiviCRM admin screens that is more in keeping with WordPress (see below)</li>
<li>Modifies the styling of the CiviCRM menu to fix a number of issues</li>
<li>Fixes the appearance of the Shoreditch extension in WordPress admin</li>
<li>Fixes the appearance of the WordPress Access Control form where necessary</li>
<li>Offers options to prevent various CiviCRM Stylesheets from loading on the front-end</li>
<li>Adds a handy CiviCRM Shortcuts menu to the WordPress Admin Bar</li>
<li>Allows you to choose which Post Types the CiviCRM shortcode button appears on</li>
<li>In WordPress multisite, allows you to hide CiviCRM on sub-sites</li>
<li>Allows you to remove “administer CiviCRM” capabilities from sub-site administrators</li>
<li>Allows suppression of the “change of email” notification when a CiviCRM Contact’s primary email is changed</li>
<li>Gives an overview of the relationships between Users and Contacts via the “Manage Users” screen</li>
</ul>
<h3>CiviCRM Admin Theme</h3>
<p>Version 0.5 introduces a new theme for CiviCRM admin screens that is more in keeping with WordPress. It can be enabled on the CiviCRM Admin Utilities settings page. Feedback is welcome – please open an issue on the plugin’s <a href="https://github.com/christianwach/civicrm-admin-utilities" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub repository</a> if you find any bugs or have suggestions for improvements.</p>
<h3>Requirements</h3>
<p>This plugin requires a minimum of <em>WordPress 4.9</em> and <em>CiviCRM 5.39</em> but recommends you keep up to date with both.</p>
<h3>Notes</h3>
<p>If you have installed the Shoreditch extension for CiviCRM, then this plugin does its best to make it compatible with WordPress. Unfortunately, Shoreditch version 0.1-alpha25 now makes it very difficult to override the margin applied to the body tag on the front end of your site, so you will have to do this yourself.</p>
<h3>Plugin Development</h3>
<p>This plugin is in active development. For feature requests and bug reports (or if you’re a plugin author and want to contribute) please visit the plugin’s <a href="https://github.com/christianwach/civicrm-admin-utilities" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub repository</a>.</p>

<p>Half Baked Category Colours adds a per-category colour picker and applies those colours sitewide wherever categories are displayed.</p>
<p>It is designed to be simple in day-to-day use. Set a colour once on the category screen and you are done. If you want a consistent “category pill” look across themes, you can optionally enable pill styling and fine-tune spacing, tint, underline, border thickness, and pill shape.</p>
<p>Highlights<br />
* Set a colour per category on Posts <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Categories (add or edit), plus Quick Edit support.<br />
* Optional default category colour (used when a category has no specific colour).<br />
* Optional pill styling (rounded borders + padding), plus controls for pill gap, border thickness, pill shape, background tint, and underline.<br />
* Category list screen improvements, including a colour swatch column and Quick Edit colour picker.<br />
* Optional category name case tools (categories only), including Storage case, auto-apply on create or edit, forced Display case, and Normalize all.</p>
<h4>How it works</h4>
<ol>
<li>Go to Posts <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Categories and set a colour for each category you want styled.</li>
<li>Optionally set a Default category colour to cover anything left unset.</li>
<li>Optionally enable pill styling for a consistent look across themes.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Inheritance</h4>
<p>If a child category has no colour set, it can inherit its parent category colour.</p>
<h4>Privacy and data</h4>
<p>This plugin does not send any data off-site. Colours and settings are stored locally in your WordPress database.</p>
<h4>Uninstall</h4>
<p>Uninstalling the plugin removes plugin settings and any stored metadata created by the plugin.</p>
