== Description ==

Great Feature Toggle (GFT) is a modular admin utility that lets you
enable or disable a curated set of features from one screen. Ideal for
fresh installs, prototyping, or client sites where you need sane
defaults fast — but still want complete control.

**Highlights**
* **Simple Contact Form** shortcode: built-in *CAPTCHA* and sane validation.
* **SEO Meta**: set site title/description (lightweight, theme-agnostic).
* **Custom Login Logo**: for branded admin/login views.
* **Custom Mail-From**: set name/address (including evelope) for outgoing emails.
* **Disable Comments**: site-wide for posts/media (fully reversible).
* **Force Login**: limit pages with *allowlist* of public paths (e.g., /privacy-policy, /contact).
* **Hide Login/Account Nav Links**
* **Hide Admin Screen Options & Help Tabs**
* **Hide Menu Items**: a limit menu for logged out users.
* **Shortcodes**: `[grftg_message]` to output a message; `[grftg_reading_time]` to show estimated reading time.
* Built to WordPress coding standards and security best-practices (nonces, capabilities, escaping/sanitization).

Key Features:
* Performance-optimized compilation system
* Categorized feature organization
* Real-time admin interface
* Robust error handling
* Translation ready

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Do I have to use all of the various features? =
Absolutely not.  You can turn on or off any feature independently.
No more activating and deactivating various plugins.

= Does GFT replace a full SEO plugin? =
No — GFT provides lightweight title/description fields. If you need advanced sitemaps, schema, redirects, etc., use a dedicated SEO plugin alongside GFT.

= How do I allow public pages while force-login is enabled? =
Enter paths (one per line) under **Force Login → Allowlist**, e.g. `/`, `/privacy-policy`, `/contact`.

= Will this conflict with my theme or page builder? =
GFT is theme-agnostic and works with Gutenberg and other popular builders like Elementor. The features are intentionally minimal and additive.

= Can I hide the admin Help/Screen Options only for certain roles? =
Yes. Set the minimum capability for each feature in settings.

= Will this impact system perfornace? =
Unlike having numerous plugins, having these in one single place will speed up a site. In fact the Great Feature Toggle plugin goes to great length to help improve performance such as minimizing DB interactions and ensuring the code only run on the specific pages.

Yes - I have an addition 20+ features in development such as:
 * Admin Menu ordering
