<p>WP Basic Elements gives you full control over the features WordPress loads by default. Disable what you don’t need, clean up the front-end markup, and streamline the admin interface — all from a single, modern settings page.</p>
<p>Every option is <strong>off by default</strong>. You choose exactly what to disable, nothing more.</p>
<h4>What you can do</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Admin Bar</strong> — Remove individual items like the WP logo, New Content, Customize, Updates, Comments, Search, and more</li>
<li><strong>Dashboard Widgets</strong> — Hide Welcome Panel, At a Glance, Activity, Site Health, Quick Draft, WP Events & News, WooCommerce and Yoast widgets</li>
<li><strong>Admin Footer</strong> — Replace or hide the left and right footer text</li>
<li><strong>User Profile</strong> — Hide profile fields (Rich Editing, Color Scheme, Application Passwords, etc.) and remove individual contact methods (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter/X, and more)</li>
<li><strong>Comments</strong> — Disable the entire comment system with a single toggle</li>
<li><strong>Gutenberg Editor</strong> — Turn off Welcome Guide, Fullscreen Mode, Focus Mode, Distraction Free Mode, and Top Toolbar</li>
<li><strong>Meta Tags & Head Cleanup</strong> — Remove the generator tag, oEmbed links, shortlinks, WLW manifest, adjacent post links, REST API links, RSS feeds, emojis, and pingbacks/trackbacks</li>
