Plugin Report

If a plugin hasn't been updated for a long time and isn't tested with the current WordPress version, it doesn't necessarily mean it's broken. But it's worth checking if there are better alternatives available that are being actively developed. 

If you easily want to check and improve your website, this plugin comes in really handy: It tells you, what WordPress version you are using and if the plugin developers have tested their plugin with that version. You can also easily check, when the plugin had it's last update. Plugins which haven't been updated lately get highlighted, which makes it even easier to take action. This all happens without much hassle: install the plugin, go to menu plugins > plugin report and give it a minute to sample all necessary informations and you immediately know, where you should try plugins which are more up to date.

Maintaining your WordPress site can be so easy, if you use such a great tool.

Great way to keep your site up to date

This plugin especially useful when you have dozens of them (in my case 50+).
Plugin Report works nicely with paid plugins as well.

I love how it loads all the plugins one by one (great UX) and "Last update" column.

Instead of "No data available" it could display juts "-". less clutter, but not critical.
The plugin lacks sorting by columns, and/or filtering, but still very useful.

Small and useful to have plugins under control


This is going straight into my toolkit.



It fills a critical need that probably should be part of WordPress core, and it does so in a simple and straight-forward way.



Thank you!


A Toolkit Must-Have

A WordPress plugin that provides detailed information about currently installed plugins.

<p>Current features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Adds a new column on the plugins dashboard screen that shows when each plugin was activated, only if PAD was installed before</li>
<li>Control whether you’d like to see a relative date or a “regular” date as set under Settings > General</li>
</ul>
<p>While by default the date & time settings are being used, you can always change the date format by filtering ‘pad_date_time_format’. For instance:</p>
<pre><code><?php

add_filter( 'pad_date_time_format', 'my_pad_date_time_format' );
function my_pad_date_time_format( $date_format ) {
    return 'm-d-Y';
}
</code></pre>

Plugin Activation Date

Essential plugin, still works 8 years after the last update

Still works

Yes, I think so :)

The code is very simple, all contained in a single class. The hooks are very basic and given WP backwards compatibility policy I don't see this plugin stop working any time soon and if you allow me the hyperbole, actually it'll never stop, lol

Hail to the king! Great plugin!!

It will work forever!

Keep track of plugins you activate or deactivate through the dashboard by viewing when each and every one of them was enabled or disabled.
