=== WP Settings & Health Dashboard === Contributors: codecompiled Tags: system info, database backup, site health, php version, sql export Requires at least: 5.0 Tested up to: 6.8 Requires PHP: 7.4 Stable tag: 2.0 License: GPLv2 or later A modern, lightweight health dashboard for WordPress. Monitor system metrics, server environment, and generate secure database backups in one click. == Description == **WP Settings & Health** is the essential "under the hood" dashboard for WordPress site owners and developers. Move beyond the basic built-in tools with a professional, card-based interface that displays exactly what is happening in your environment. Whether you are debugging a theme, checking server limits, or preparing for a migration, this plugin gives you the data you need without the bloat. ### Key Features: * **System Health Snapshot:** View WordPress core details, active theme status, and child-theme architecture. * **Server Environment Metrics:** Monitor PHP versions, Memory Limits, Max Upload sizes, and Server Software (Apache/Nginx) in real-time. * **Database Insights:** Get instant stats on your database size, table count, and MySQL version. * **One-Click SQL Backup:** Generate a raw SQL script of your entire database for manual migrations or security archives. * **Customizable View:** Use the sidebar toggles to hide or show only the metrics you care about. ### Why choose WP Settings & Health? Unlike heavy security suites, our plugin is **ultra-lightweight**. It only loads when you are viewing the dashboard, ensuring zero impact on your site's front-end performance. == Installation == 1. Upload the `wp-settings` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory. 2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress. 3. Navigate to **WP Settings** in your admin sidebar to view your health dashboard. == Frequently Asked Questions == = Is this a full backup solution? = This plugin provides a raw SQL database export. It is perfect for data-only backups. For a full site backup (including images/themes), we recommend using this alongside a file-backup tool. = Does this affect my site speed? = Not at all. The plugin logic only runs when you explicitly open the WP Settings page in your admin dashboard. == Screenshots == 1. The Modern Health Dashboard: A clean, card-based overview of your site. 2.
