<p>After release of WordPress 2.5, the IDs on all admin pages have been removed as it was, probably due to the fact that the common user don’t need them. However, for advanced WordPress users / developers those IDs were quite interesting for some plugins or template tags.</p>
<p>What this plugin does is to display IDs on admin pages, showing the IDs, as it was in versions prior to 2.5</p>

<p>Simply shows the ID of Posts, Pages, Media, Links, Categories, Tags and Users in the admin tables for easy access. Very lightweight.</p>
<p>A common complaint about the edit posts, pages, media, links, categories, tags and users pages is that there is no easy way to see the ID of the specific item. This plugin will add a new column titled ‘ID’ that will display each items ID.</p>
<p>IDs for categories, tags and users will only display when using WordPress 2.8 or newer.</p>
<p>This plugin is very simplistic and thus very lightweight. To facilitate the need of a lightweight alternative to other plugins of its type this plugin was created.</p>
