Local Email Blocker is a lightweight WordPress plugin designed for developers and staging environments. It prevents WordPress from sending actual emails, instead intercepting them and storing them in your database for easy viewing. This is crucial for local development and staging sites where you don’t want test emails to accidentally reach real users.
Features:
<ul>
<li>Automatic Blocking: Automatically detects local development environments (localhost, .local, .test, .dev) and blocks emails.</li>
<li>Manual Blocking: Option to manually enable email blocking, perfect for staging sites.</li>
<li>SMTP Override: Can be configured to block emails even when an SMTP plugin is active, ensuring no emails escape.</li>
<li>Email Log: All intercepted emails are logged in the WordPress database, accessible via a dedicated admin page.</li>
<li>View Email Details: Easily view the full content, headers, and attachments of logged emails.</li>
<li>Clear Log: Option to clear all logged emails.</li>
<li>SMTP Status Detection: Provides information about your current SMTP configuration.</li>
</ul>
This plugin ensures that your development and staging processes are clean and free from unintended email dispatches, while still allowing you to inspect what emails would have been sent.

Use short codes to dynamically link to your WordPress pages and posts. All you need is the ID. This can come in handy when developing content for WordPress sites. Makes for a cleaner migration with no need to manipulate content when moving from one subdirectory or domain to another.
Attributes of <code>append</code> <code>class</code>, <code>rel</code>, and <code>target</code> are supported within the <code>[permalink]</code> opening tag. See FAQs. You can insert the token <code>%post_title%</code> to dynamically insert the post’s title into anchor text (content between the opening and closing shortcode).
A short code for <code>[template_uri]</code> exists if you’d like to dynamically grab the full URL to your current template directory (useful for adding images and other resources bundled in a template via the page/post editor).
Example 1: Create link.
<pre><code>[permalink id=2 rel="internal"]Check out my latest post named %post_title%[/permalink] or use `[permalink]this link[/permalink]` to link to this post.
</code></pre>
Example 2: Output Permalink URL.
<pre><code><a href="[permalink]">;This post.</a>;
</code></pre>
Example 3: Template Directory URI
<pre><code><img src="[template_uri]/photos/me_grandma.jpg" alt="A Photo of Me and My Grandma" />
</code></pre>
