Plugin Groups

by David Cramer

Description

If you have a lot of plugins installed, it can be difficult to manage them all. Now you can organize the plugins admin page by grouping your plugins by purpose. Each group will be displayed as a plugin status tabs in the plugins admin page, so you can easily filter which plugins you are viewing by group.

A free plugin by David Cramer.

Indispensable quand vous souhaitez laisser un site "propre" après une intervention, en nettoyant rapidement les plugins installés pour l'occasion !

Le seul plugin du genre... Merci à l'auteur.

brilliant plugin!

So many awesome uses! Will review it on my site and YouTube channel soon.

Very useful if you have a lot of plugins

The more recent version really cleans up the interface too.

Plugin is not saving information.

By msantananet on August 17, 2022

Something giving an error, it's not saving, I use this plugin and it's phenomenal, but it stopped working. I cannot identify the problem.

Amazing Idea, does not save 🙁

Not a good thing that tried 3 times trying to save thinking that I am doing something wrong...

Amazing!

Tried so many "Folder" or "Organizer" plugins. non of which does this as lightly and precisely as this. Thank you David! One question. Can I save the groups to all subsites in a multisite setup?

Must-have for Admins and Webmaster

Aaaay, I use this plugin already for years. It's so handy because of all the DEV plugins in use (Regenerate Thumbnails, Duplicate Posts, Oxygen Builder Addons, this and that) you don't need nor want in LIVE. Had a fork running and recently discovered the new version - dope! New interface: super nice Function: as usual Worth: unaffordable Points: 10 out of 5 ! Keep it up, even if it was so less active installs.... Cheers.

Nice and useful plugin.

Good afternoon. I've been waiting for this multisite plugin for a long time and when it came out I was able to clean up my WP multisite network. This plugin should be in the core of the WP multisite network, because without it it is very difficult to put things in order when developing and maintaining several projects (sites) at the same time. It should be noted that the plugin is well thought out and developed, it has a convenient and intuitive interface. Many thanks to the developer, his work deserves 5 stars!

Excelent
