DawsonyWeb – Admin Utilities is a developer-friendly WordPress plugin that packages the small admin improvements you actually need into one clean, modular plugin. No bloat, no nag banners, no upsells.
Each tool (module) can be independently enabled or disabled. Only enabled modules load their hooks and assets, keeping your admin fast.
<h4>Modules Included</h4>
Copy Buttons Everywhere 
Adds copy buttons for IDs, permalinks, edit links, and slugs across:
<ul>
<li>Post/Page/CPT list tables (row actions)</li>
<li>Single post edit screens (meta box)</li>
<li>Users list table</li>
<li>Taxonomy term list tables</li>
</ul>
Environment Badge 
Shows a color-coded environment indicator (LOCAL / DEV / STAGING / LIVE) in the admin bar. Uses <code>wp_get_environment_type()</code> with a <code>DAWSONY_ENV</code> constant fallback. Configurable per role.
Debug Snapshot 
A read-only support snapshot page showing WordPress version, PHP version, server info, memory limits, active theme, active plugins, and more. Includes a one-click “Copy as Text” button for easy sharing with support teams.
Global Admin Notice Board 
Set a message that appears in wp-admin for selected roles. Supports basic HTML, notice type (info/success/warning/error), optional expiry date, and per-user dismissal with admin reset.
Dashboard Widget Manager 
Hide or show dashboard widgets per user role. Automatically discovers all registered widgets (core + plugin) and lets you control visibility from a simple settings UI.
<h4>Philosophy</h4>
<ul>
<li>No front-end output or performance impact</li>
<li>No external tracking, telemetry, or “phone home” behavior</li>
<li>All inputs sanitized, all outputs escaped</li>
<li>Nonces for all actions, capability checks for all settings</li>
<li>Clean uninstall removes all data</li>
</ul>
<h3>Privacy</h3>
DawsonyWeb – Admin Utilities does not collect, store, or transmit any data externally. All data is stored locally in your WordPress database (wp_options and wp_usermeta). No cookies are set. No external requests are made.
