<p>WordPress 5.5 introduces a way to differentiate between environment types (development, staging, production). This plugin displays your site’s environment type on the admin bar.</p>

<p>To gain more control, and setting environment and other values directly from the WP admin (if wp-config.php is writable), install our plugin <strong><a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/0-day-analytics/" rel="ugc">WP Control</a></strong></p>

Display Environment Type

Have you ever accidentally added test content to a productive website?

You can now define a constant in your wp-config.php to distinguish between development, staging and productuion sites. To make this visible, this lean but helpful plugin adds an indicator to the admin bar and dashboard widget which helps to avoid mistakes as adding "Lorem ipsum" to your productive site. :)

Plugin works like a charm. No settings needed. Install, activate and feel happy.

Nice little helper


Five stars for Display Environment Type! 



Huge thanks to the author for creating this gem. The plugin might be small, but it's incredibly useful, doing exactly what you'd expect without any unnecessary clutter. No settings hassle – just install and get to work seamlessly.


This is what a developer needs
