    • Disable the default WordPress shortlink <link> tag in <head>. Ignored by search engines and has minimal practical use case. Usually, a dedicated shortlink plugin or service is preferred that allows for nice names in the short links and tracking of clicks when sharing the link on social media.
    • Disable loading of dashicons CSS and JS files on the front-end for public site visitors.
    • Disable emoji support for pages, posts and custom post types on the admin and frontend. The support is primarily useful for older browsers that do not have native support for it. Most modern browsers across different OSes and devices now have native support for it.

Optimizations

  • Revisions Control. Prevent bloating the database by limiting the number of revisions to keep for some or all post types supporting revisions.
  • Heartbeat Control. Modify the interval of the WordPress heartbeat API or disable it on admin pages, post creation/edit screens and/or the frontend. This will help reduce CPU load on the server.

Utilities

  • SMTP Email Delivery. Use external SMTP service to ensure notification and transactional emails from your site are being delivered to inboxes.
  • View Admin as Role. View admin pages and the site (logged-in) as one of the non-administrator user roles.
  • Password Protection. Password-protect the entire site to hide the content from public view and search engine bots / crawlers. Logged-in administrators can still access the site as usual.
  • Maintenance Mode. Show a customizable maintenance page on the frontend while performing a brief maintenance to your site. Logged-in administrators can still view the site as usual.
  • Redirect 404 to Homepage. Perform 301 (permanent) redirect to the homepage for all 404 (not found) pages.

First and foremost, I must express gratitude to the author for the exceptional effort invested in developing this plugin. Normally, I tend to steer clear of "all-in-one" plugins; however, I believe that the selection of tools incorporated into this plugin has been astutely deliberated, given that it nearly aligns entirely with the options I typically apply to each website. In conclusion, this plugin is commendable, and I extend thanks to the author for their dedication!
