<p>This plugin makes wordpress posting/editing a less strainful experience. It weeds out all the junk in the post editor window so that its easier to concentrate on writing. This is sort of an alternative to WordPress Full Screen Editor.</p>
<p>You can read about about it in this blog post => http://www.humbug.in/2011/wordpress-plugin-cleaner-wordpress-editor-trying-to-make-wordpress-editing-a-pleasure/</p>
<p>The plugin will change the following things:</p>
<ul>
<li>Editor Font will be changed to Georgia instead of Consolas</li>
<li>Editor Font size will be increased by 110% in the Visual Editor and 120% in the HTML Editor. The Line Height will also be increased accordingly.</li>
<li>Editor Background Color will be changed to #FCFCFC and the Font Color to #333333. This is to reduce strain on the eyes. The original black and white combination has a high contrast.</li>
<li>The Editor will be set into the Single Column Mode.</li>
<li>The Left Side Navigation bar will be collapsed.</li>
<li>All extra non functional elements will be hidden.</li>
</ul>
<p>Since the plugin forces the Edit Screen into a single column scheme, once you have installed the plugin, all the widgets which you normally see on the right sidebar, like the publish button widget, will be pushed below the Visual/HTML Editor box.  You will have to scroll down to see those widgets. Those widgets can be dragged and dropped to reorder them. However if you do re-order them, when you deactivate this plugin, they will retain that order and won’t revert to the original scheme. So please do make sure that you like the new Edit Screen, before re-ordering your widgets.</p>
<p>Uninstalling the plugin will automatically take you back to your previous settings.</p>

<p>Clean expired transients from your options table. The original and best!</p>
<p><strong>Transient housekeeping was added to the core of WordPress after version 5.8. However, I have decided to open up this plugin to all versions to allow for manual transient cleaning. Longer term I am working on a new version of the plugin, designed specifically for all WordPress releases.</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Tested up to PHP 8.2</li>
<li>Fully complies with WordPress coding standards</li>
<li>Compliant with the stronger <a href="https://wpvip.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">WordPress VIP</a> coding standards, as well as compatibility with their platform</li>
<li>Community plugin – visit the [Github page](https://github.com/dartiss/[repo link] “Github”) to get involved with the latest code development, request enhancements and report issues</li>
</ul>
<p>“Transients are a simple and standardized way of storing cached data in the WordPress database temporarily by giving it a custom name and a timeframe after which it will expire and be deleted.”</p>
<p>Unfortunately, expired transients only get deleted when you attempt to access them. If you don’t access the transient then, even though it’s expired, WordPress will not remove it. This is <a href="https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/20316" title="Ticket #20316" rel="nofollow ugc">a known “issue”</a> but due to reasons, which are explained in the FAQ, this has not been adequately resolved.</p>
<p>Why is this a problem? Transients are often used by plugins to “cache” data (my own plugins included). Because of this it means that expired data can be left and build up, resulting in a bloated database table.</p>
<p>Meantime, this plugin is the hero that you’ve been waiting for. Simply activate the plugin, sit back and enjoy a much cleaner, smaller options table. It also adds the additional recommendation that after a database upgrade all transients will be cleared down.</p>
<h3>The Settings Screen</h3>
<p>Within <code>Administration</code> -> <code>Tools</code> -> <code>Transients</code> an options screen exists allowing you to tweak when you’d like cleaning to happen, including the ability to perform an ad-hoc run, and when you’d like the to be automatically scheduled.</p>
<p>You can even request an optimization of the options table to give your system a real “pep”!</p>
<h3>Running in Lite mode</h3>
<p>A “lite” mode is available. By activating this the options screen will no longer appear and default settings will be used. The advantage? Improved performance to Admin and, especially if you’re running multi-site, no chance of anybody “tinkering” with the settings.</p>
<p>To activate, use the following…</p>
<pre><code>define( 'TC_LITE', true );
</code></pre>
<p>This should be added to your <code>wp-config.php</code> file.</p>
<h3>Using hooks</h3>
<p>If you’re the type of odd person who likes to code for WordPress (really?) then I’ve added a couple of hooks so you can call our rather neat cleaning functions…</p>
<ul>
<li><code>housekeep_transients</code> – this will clear down any expired transients</li>
<li><code>clear_all_transients</code> – this will remove any and all transients, expired or otherwise</li>
</ul>

Transient Cleaner

This plugin is great. A site I manage got hacked and the database export was 304mb. After clearing the transients the database export went from 304mb to 13mb.



Fantastic plugin!

This helped fix a widget that had cached old data in a transient

Clean Now - awesome
