<p><strong>WP Developer Assistant</strong> is a WordPress plugin developed by a WordPress developer for WordPress developers.</p>
<ul>
<li>Have you ever needed to run a query when you didn’t have access to phpMyAdmin or SSH?</li>
<li>Don’t you hate it when you need to upload a plugin, theme, or other file and don’t have FTP access?</li>
<li>Have you ever wondered where that action or filter hook gets called?</li>
<li>Want to enable errors while hiding them from everyone else?</li>
<li>Wouldn’t it be great if you could output a full listing of PHP global variable values on each page so debugging would be easier?</li>
<li>Ever wanted to modify one of those serialized options?</li>
<li>Would you like to quickly see a full list of defined constants?</li>
</ul>
<p>It’s thoughts like these that caused me to make this plugin. WP Developer Assistant is the first WordPress plugin of its kind. It essentially is a toolkit that makes life as a WordPress developer easier.</p>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Customizable enabling of PHP errors that only show for your user.</li>
<li>Display values of PHP’s built-in global variables (_POST, _REQUEST, _FILE, _ENV, etc) on each page.</li>
<li>Easily modify Options table values, including serialized data.</li>
<li>View a full list of all the add_action, do_action, add_filter, and apply_filters function calls complete with information on function names, priorities, number of accepted arguments, source file name, and file line number.</li>
<li>Quickly execute queries with the Run Query tool.</li>
<li>Show phpinfo().</li>
<li>View a comprehensive list of all the defined named constants, their current value, the declared value, the source file name of the definition, and the file line number of the definition.</li>
<li>Quickly and easily upload files to any place inside your WordPress installation. The uploader will even automatically extract archives to the destination directory.</li>
</ul>

WP Developer Assistant

A plugin by a WordPress developer for WordPress developers.

Viktor Szépe

<h4>Only for development!</h4>
<h4>Now with OPcache memory consumption support</h4>
<p>This plugin dumps the colorized filenames and memory consumptions or file sizes after the normal WordPress HTML output, after the closing html tag. This generates invalid HTML but gives you an overview of loaded plugins and the current theme.</p>
<p><em>What’s running</em> lists all files parsed and executed by the PHP engine. It can be used for plugin or theme refactoring.</p>
<h4>Now you can highlight your own plugin and theme</h4>
<p>Provide a part of its path in wp-config.php:</p>
<pre><code>define( 'WHATS_RUNNING_HIGHLIGHT', 'wp-content/plugins/my-plugin' ); </code></pre>
<h4>Color codes</h4>
<ul>
<li>your code is highlighted with YELLOW background</li>
<li>plugin files are in BLUE</li>
<li>themes files are in ORANGE</li>
<li>files in the wp-includes directory are in GREEN</li>
<li>files in the wp-admin directory are in GREY</li>
<li>all other files are in RED</li>
<li>VIOLET bar after the filename represents the file size ( 0.5 kB/px )</li>
<li>DARK MAGENTA bar after the filename represents the OPcache memory consumption ( 1 kB/px )</li>
</ul>
