## Description
**One plugin to replace twenty. Free forever.**
I was tired of my WordPress installs looking like a graveyard of single-purpose
plugins — one for SEO, one for cache, one for SMTP, one for redirects, one for backups.
Each one with its own dashboard, its own freemium dance. So I built Blaminhor Essentials—
and I never sell your data.
**Why this plugin exists:**
* **Every WordPress essential under one roof.** SEO, cache, SMTP, backup, cookie
banner, contact forms, anti-spam, redirections, broken links, duplicator, database
optimizer, domain changer, fatal error recovery, favicon, HTTPS redirect, hide
login, image sizes, maintenance mode, mute core emails, post types order, user
role editor, classic editor, disable comments. Switch on what you use today;
the rest stays out of your way until the day you need it.
* **No tax for what you don’t use.** Each module is independent: an inactive one
loads no PHP, registers no hooks, enqueues no assets, runs no queries. You’re
only paying — in memory and milliseconds — for the features you actually turned
on.
* **Replaces what you already have.** SEO, cache, SMTP, backup, cookie banner,
redirections, duplicator, user role editor, and a dozen more — the kind of dedicated
plugins you’ve stacked one by one over the years, now in a single coherent toolkit.
Built-in importers for Yoast, Rank Math, All in One SEO, WP Mail SMTP, Post SMTP,
Easy WP SMTP, Redirection, Safe Redirect Manager, Custom Taxonomy Order, Favicon
by RealFaviconGenerator, and the standalone User Role Editor — your existing
data comes with you.
* **Rebuilt on modern PHP.** Since version 2, every module has been re-engineered
from the ground up to take full advantage of PHP 8 — strict types, enums and
value objects — for tighter security and faster, leaner execution.
* **Free.** All features above are free. No tracking, no telemetry.
* **Translated in 11 languages.** English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese(
Brazil), Japanese, Russian, Turkish, Dutch, Indonesian.
* **You can email me anytime.** `hi+wp@blaminhor.com`
**Available Features — 23 modules:**
#### Performance
* **Cache & Performance** — Page cache, asset optimization and lazy load, plus
a Web Vitals dashboard and an auto-pilot that benchmarks each speed option on
your own pages.
#### SEO & Links
* **SEO/GEO** — Meta titles and descriptions with SERP preview, XML sitemaps, per-
type indexing control, and one-click import from Yoast, Rank Math or All in One
SEO.
* **Redirections** — Simple or regex redirects (301, 302, 307, 410, 451) with hit
counters, slug-change detection, and CSV / plugin import (Redirection, Safe Redirect
Manager).
* **Broken Links** — Scan posts, pages and custom post types for dead internal
and external links, with live results and one-click fixes.
#### Emails
* **SMTP Mailer** — Reliable delivery through 12+ providers (Brevo, SendGrid, Mailgun,
AWS SES…) with automatic relay fallback, logging, and import from WP Mail SMTP,
Post SMTP or Easy WP SMTP.
* **Mute Core Emails** — Silence WordPress automatic notifications (updates, new
users, password changes, comments) individually.
#### Security & Maintenance
* **Cookie Banner** — Self-hosted consent banner that blocks tracking scripts and
embeds until visitors agree, with GDPR/CCPA/LGPD presets, Consent Mode v2, and
a 13-month consent log.
* **Anti-Spam** — Block spam bots on the comment, login, registration and password
forms with a hidden honeypot trap, and encode the email addresses shown on your
site so harvesters cannot read them — no CAPTCHA, no external service.
* **Hide Login Page** — Replace wp-login.php with a custom URL and block bots probing
the default login.
* **HTTPS Redirect** — Force HTTPS site-wide with optional mixed-content fixing
and an HSTS header.
* **Fatal Error Recovery** — Recover a crashed site from a secret URL by disabling
the culprit plugin, with no FTP access.
* **Maintenance** — Show a Coming Soon (200) or Maintenance (503) page, with role
and IP whitelisting.
* **User Role Editor** — Create, clone and edit roles and capabilities, with per-
user overrides, JSON import/export and one-click import from the standalone User
Role Editor plugin.
#### Database & Migration
* **Backup & Restore** — Scheduled backups of files and database as separate archives,
with a safety backup and one-click undo before every restore.
* **Database Optimizer** — Clean revisions, transients, spam and orphaned data
on a schedule, with an at-a-glance size and overhead overview.
* **Domain Changer** — Change your site domain and update every database reference,
including serialized data, in one click.
#### Content & Media
* **Calendar** (Beta) — Publish events with recurrence, venues, organizers, calendar
views, iCal import and RSVP, and run a full booking system for appointments and
resource rentals with reminders and Stripe payments.
* **Forms** (Beta) — Accessible drag-and-drop contact forms with entries stored
in the database, no-CAPTCHA spam protection, and GDPR controls.
* **Content Duplicator** — Clone any post, page or custom post type with all fields,
taxonomies and child posts; supports every major page builder.
* **Classic Editor & Widgets** — Restore the classic editor and/or the classic
widgets screen, independently.
* **Image Sizes** — Disable unused thumbnail sizes, register custom ones, and regenerate
existing images.
* **Favicon Generator** — Generate every favicon format (PNG, Apple Touch, Android,
Windows tiles) from a single square image, or import an existing set from Favicon
by RealFaviconGenerator or the WordPress Site Icon.
* **Post Types Order** — Reorder posts, pages, custom post types and taxonomies
with drag and drop, and import an existing term order from Custom Taxonomy Order.
* **Disable Comments** — Remove the comment system site-wide and hide it from the
admin, reversibly.
### WP-CLI Commands
Every module is fully configurable from the command line through the `wp blaminhor...`
namespace — useful for scripts, CI/CD, fixtures, and AI assistants like Claude Code
or Cursor. The CLI delegates to the same validation pipeline as the admin UI, so
settings stay consistent.
Discover the full command tree:
```
wp help blaminhor
wp help blaminhor
```
Lifecycle:
```
wp blaminhor info
wp blaminhor modules list [--active-only|--inactive-only] [--category=]
wp blaminhor modules activate
wp blaminhor modules deactivate [--yes]
```
A few examples per module (full reference: see the bundled `llms.txt`):
* SMTP: `wp blaminhor smtp add-relay --name=Gmail --host=smtp.gmail.com --port=
587 --encryption=tls --from-email=hello@example.com`, `wp blaminhor smtp test--
to=admin@example.com`
* Redirections: `wp blaminhor redirections add --source=/old --target=/new`, `wp
blaminhor redirections list --search=/blog`
* SEO/GEO: `wp blaminhor seo set --sitemap-enabled=true --ai-block-chatgpt=true`,`
wp blaminhor seo list-urls`
* Maintenance: `wp blaminhor maintenance enable --headline="Be right back"`, `wp
blaminhor maintenance disable`
* HTTPS Redirect: `wp blaminhor https-redirect enable --hsts=true`
* Database Optimizer: `wp blaminhor db-optimizer scan`, `wp blaminhor db-optimizer
clean --tasks=revisions,spam_comments`
* Cache: `wp blaminhor cache purge`, `wp blaminhor cache status`
* Backup: `wp blaminhor backup list`, `wp blaminhor backup delete --yes`
All listing commands accept `--format=table|json|csv|yaml|count|ids` for scripting.
Mutating commands require `--user=` for the capability check. Sensitive
values (SMTP passwords, recovery keys) are never printed in cleartext.
The Backup module exposes `list` and `delete` only — creating and restoring a backup
remain admin-only, where the stepped AJAX flow avoids PHP timeouts and the pre-restore
safety net runs.
### Privacy Policy
Blaminhor Essentials does not collect any personal data. The SMTP Mailer feature
stores email metadata locally if logging is enabled, but this data stays on your
server.
### Third Party Services
This plugin allows you to optionally configure connections to external SMTP services
for email delivery. **No data is sent to any external service unless you explicitly
configure an SMTP relay.**
When you configure the SMTP Mailer module, your emails will be sent through the
service you choose. The following services have preset configurations available:
Gmail, Microsoft Outlook/Office 365, Brevo (formerly Sendinblue), SendGrid, Mailgun,
Amazon SES, Postmark, Elastic Email, SparkPost, Mailjet, SMTP2GO, Zoho Mail.
You can also configure any other SMTP server using the “Other” option. Please review
the privacy policy of any third-party service you choose to use.

## Installation
1. Upload the `blaminhor-essentials` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
3. Go to “Blaminhor Essentials” in the admin menu.
4. Turn on the features you need.
## FAQ
### Will activating all features slow down my site?
No. Each module only loads its code when activated. Disabled modules have zero impact
on performance — no PHP loaded, no hooks registered, no queries run.
### Is it really free?
Yes, genuinely free. Every module and every feature ships in the single free download—
no expiring trial, no ads in your dashboard, nothing held back for a paywall. I
don’t track you and I don’t sell your data. If it saves you time, a kind review
is all I ask.
### What are the requirements?
WordPress 6.2 or newer and PHP 8.1 or newer. It runs fine on standard shared hosting:
heavy jobs like backups and link scans are processed in small batches to avoid timeouts,
and no background service or special server access is required.
### Can I replace multiple plugins with this one?
Yes, that’s the main goal. Blaminhor Essentials can replace Redirection, Yoast/Rank
Math, WP Mail SMTP, UpdraftPlus, Duplicate Post, User Role Editor, and many others.
### Will it conflict with my existing SEO, cache or SMTP plugin?
Every module is off by default and independent, so installing the plugin changes
nothing until you switch something on. The one thing to avoid is running two plugins
that do the same job — two SEO plugins, or two page caches — since they can clash.
The clean path is to import your data into the matching module, then deactivate
the old plugin.
### How do I migrate my data from other plugins?
Several modules include import features, so you don’t lose your existing setup:
–**
SEO**: Import titles, descriptions and keywords from Yoast SEO, Rank Math or All
in One SEO. – **SMTP**: Import from WP Mail SMTP, Post SMTP or Easy WP SMTP. – **
Redirections**: Import from the Redirection plugin, Safe Redirect Manager or a CSV
file. – **Post Types Order**: Import your saved term order from Custom Taxonomy
Order. – **Favicon**: Import an existing favicon set from Favicon by RealFaviconGenerator,
or from the WordPress Site Icon. – **User Role Editor**: Import roles and custom
capabilities from the standalone User Role Editor plugin, or from a JSON export.
### Does the plugin send my data to external servers?
No. Everything runs on your own server by default — no telemetry, no usage tracking.
The only data that ever leaves your site is what you set up yourself: the SMTP module
sends your emails through the relay you choose, and the Cache module can run a Google
PageSpeed audit when you click the button. Nothing else.
### What happens to my settings if I deactivate or uninstall the plugin?
Your data is safe by default. Deactivating keeps every setting untouched, so you
can switch the plugin back on right where you left off. Even deleting the plugin
removes nothing unless you first turn on the “Delete all data on uninstall” option—
and your posts, pages and media are never touched either way. If you do opt in,
uninstalling cleans up the plugin’s own options, tables and files so nothing is
left behind.
### If I turn off a module, do I lose its data?
No. Turning a module off only stops it from running — your redirects, SEO meta,
form entries and settings are all kept, so you can switch it back on later exactly
as it was. Data is only removed if you delete the whole plugin with the “Delete
all data on uninstall” option enabled.
### Can I back up my entire site?
Yes. The Backup module creates separate archives for database, plugins, themes and
uploads. You can schedule automatic backups (daily, weekly, monthly) and set retention
limits.
### What happens if a backup restore goes wrong?
The plugin automatically creates a safety backup before any restore. If something
goes wrong, you can undo it with one click.
### Does the SMTP module support multiple providers?
Yes. You can configure multiple relays with automatic fallback. If the primary one
fails, it tries the next in your list.
### Can I duplicate Elementor/Divi pages?
Yes. The Content Duplicator fully supports all major page builders, including Elementor,
Divi, Beaver Builder, Brizy and Oxygen.
### Can I control which user roles can access certain features?
Yes. For example, the Post Types Order module lets you choose which roles can reorder
content (Administrator, Editor or Author), and the User Role Editor gives you fine-
grained control over every capability.
### What if my site crashes after a plugin update?
The Fatal Error Recovery module detects PHP fatal errors and gives you a secret
recovery URL to deactivate the problematic plugin — no FTP access needed.
### What languages is the plugin available in?
Eleven. English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese,
Russian and Turkish are fully translated; Dutch and Indonesian are partially translated,
with anything untranslated falling back to English.
### Does the plugin work with multisite?
Yes, on a per-site basis. Each site keeps its own settings, its own database tables
and its own backups (Backup, Domain Changer and Database Optimizer store archives
in a separate per-site folder), so sites stay fully isolated. Network activation,
deactivation and uninstall apply cleanly to every site, and sites created later
are set up automatically. Two notes: server-level browser cache and GZIP rules live
in the shared root .htaccess and are managed by a network administrator (PHP page
caching still applies on every site); and there is no central Network Admin screen
yet, so you configure each site from its own dashboard.
### How can I get support?
Email me at hi+wp@blaminhor.com or visit [wp.blaminhor.com](https://wp.blaminhor.com/).
You can also use the feedback form on the plugin dashboard.

Il y a une semaine, en parcourant mon fil Facebook sur une page d’entraide WordPress,
je suis tombé sur une publication de Blaminhor — et honnêtement, je ne m’attendais
pas à ce que ça change autant ma façon de gérer mon site. Sceptique au départ face
au nombre d’installations encore modeste, je me suis quand même lancé… et quelle
bonne décision ! Blaminhor est ce que j’appellerais une extension “bundle” dans
le meilleur sens du terme : SEO, cache et performances, copie d’articles et de pages,
gestion des cookies, optimisateur de base de données, SMTP — tout y est, regroupé
en un seul outil cohérent et redoutablement efficace. Grâce à lui, j’ai pu éliminer
une bonne partie de mes extensions, allégeant mon installation WordPress comme jamais.
Le travail accompli par ce développeur est tout simplement remarquable. Il ne manque
plus que quelques briques pour atteindre la perfection absolue : un module de gestion
d’événements digne de The Events Calendar, un système de formulaires de contact
à la hauteur de Contact Form 7 avec ses extensions associées, un équivalent à Mailpoet
pour la gestion des newsletters, un encodeur d’adresses mail et enfin un gestionnaire
de snippets — et ce jour-là, je pourrai me débarrasser de la quasi-totalité de mes
extensions restantes. Le potentiel est immense, et au vu de la trajectoire actuelle,
je ne serais pas surpris que tout cela arrive :-). Si le système de notation le
permettait, je mettrais 6 étoiles sans hésiter — 5, c’est tout simplement trop peu
pour ce que Blaminhor m’a déjà apporté.

This plugin deserves way more attention! It’s packed with super useful features,
but you only activate what you need so there’s zero bloat. This single plugin effortlessly
replaced four separate maintenance and functionality plugins I previously relied
on. Give it a try… you won’t be disappointed!

## Changelog
#### 2.5.3
* Added: Calendar – Events can close sign-ups a set number of hours before they
start, so you have a head count in time.
* Added: Calendar – Events can require your approval: sign-ups come in as requests
that hold their seat until you approve or decline them.
* Added: Calendar – Bookables can offer a waitlist when out of stock for the chosen
dates, and alert people the moment those dates free up.
* Added: Calendar – Custom date and time formats for the calendar, slots and emails(
or follow your site’s own formats).
* Improved: Calendar – Settings are reorganised so each scheduling type (appointments,
events, bookables) has its own self-contained tab navigated by a section menu;
shared options stay in a Settings tab.
* Improved: Calendar – Each email now lives in the tab of the type it belongs to;
the separate Emails tab is gone.
#### 2.5.2
* Fixed: Calendar – Adds breathing room below the “Next availability” button so
it no longer touches the day-of-week row on empty weeks.
* Fixed: Calendar – Evens out the spacing around the consent checkbox on the booking
form so it matches the rest of the form.
* Improved: Calendar – Clarifies the booking and sign-up consent wording so it
plainly states that details are stored to process the request.
* Improved: Calendar – The client self-service space (passwordless reschedule and
cancel, no account) is now on by default on new sites.
* Improved: Calendar – Streamlines the settings tabs so the sections that need
a decision stay open and secondary ones start collapsed.
#### 2.5.1
* Added: Forms – Strict CAPTCHA mode rejects submissions when the verification
provider can’t be reached.
* Added: HTTPS Redirect – Optional HSTS toggles for includeSubDomains and preload,
off by default with a clear warning.
* Fixed: Fatal Error Recovery – The recovery key is stored outside the public web
root so it can’t be read on some server setups.
* Fixed: Fatal Error Recovery – The toolbar shortcut no longer exposes the recovery
key on the front end.
* Fixed: HTTPS Redirect – Redirects always target your site’s canonical address.
* Fixed: Maintenance – The visitor IP allowlist can no longer be bypassed with
a spoofed header.
* Fixed: Calendar – Public booking, RSVP and resource forms are rate-limited per
visitor to prevent automated flooding.
* Fixed: Calendar – A duplicated payment return can no longer create a booking
twice or trigger a false refund.
* Fixed: Calendar – Booking emails and the booking widget labels now display in
your site language instead of falling back to English.
* Fixed: Calendar – Email and widget text left at its default no longer stays frozen
in one language; it follows your site language and updates when you switch it.
* Fixed: Calendar – Self-cancellation links in confirmation emails now expire after
45 days.
* Fixed: Broken Links – The scanner can’t be tricked into probing internal addresses
and verifies SSL like the rest of WordPress.
* Fixed: SEO/GEO – Inline meta edits keep full JSON-LD and multi-line schema descriptions
intact.
* Fixed: SEO/GEO – Prevented a possible fatal error when a custom post type has
been removed.
* Fixed: Database Optimizer – The autoload opt-out list is preserved when saving
settings.
* Fixed: Mute Core Emails – Removed a PHP warning when recovery-mode emails are
muted.
* Fixed: Post Types Order – Reordering now refreshes the cached content order on
object-cache sites.
* Fixed: SMTP Mailer – Password-reset links are masked in email logs and a warning
flags plain-text body storage.
* Fixed: SMTP Mailer – A failing fallback relay no longer recurses into a timeout.
* Fixed: User Role Editor – Capability changes enforce a per-user permission check.
* Fixed: Content Duplicator – Bulk duplication checks edit permission on each item.
* Fixed: Backup – Large backup uploads no longer risk exhausting server memory.
* Fixed: Hide Login Page – External (SSO) login redirects are preserved, and a
warning flags a login slug that clashes with an existing page.
* Improved: Redirections – The list loads far faster on large redirection sets,
and regex patterns that could hang the site are blocked and auto-disabled.
* Improved: Forms – A failed webhook delivery is retried once after five minutes
so a transient outage no longer loses a lead.
* Improved: Forms – Allowed upload file types are now configurable, with archives
and plain text excluded by default.
* Improved: SMTP Mailer – The connection test now works with relays that don’t
require authentication.
* Improved: Cookie Banner – Consent records validate the IAB TC string format before
storage.
* Improved: Calendar – In specific-dates availability, you can paste copied hours
straight onto another date in the list, not only via the calendar.
* Improved: Calendar – The client self-service space turns on with a single switch
and a built-in address — no page to create or shortcode to place, with your own
page still an option.
#### 2.5.0
* New module: Calendar (Beta) – A complete scheduling suite for events, appointments
and rentals, all in one screen:
- Events with recurrence, venues, organizers, RSVP, calendar views and iCal
feed subscriptions.
- Online appointment booking from your weekly availability: reminders, waitlists,
approvals and optional Stripe payments.
- Resource rentals (rooms, equipment, tables…) by date range, with stock control
and optional Stripe payments.
- Client self-service pages, fully customizable emails, and public and private
calendar subscriptions.
* Added: Backup – SFTP backups can authenticate with an SSH key instead of a password:
paste your own private key, or generate a key pair and copy the public key to
your server.
* Fixed: Cache & Performance – The dashboard no longer falsely warns that the page
cache is broken when a loopback request is blocked or another cache plugin is
active.
* Fixed: Database Optimizer – Creating a backup now shows a progress spinner and
confirms completion with the file name and size, instead of leaving the button
stuck.
* Fixed: Core – On the dashboard, the module detail popover no longer covers the
module directly below it, so every module in the list stays reachable.
* Fixed: Core – Picking a colour or typing in a settings field now reveals Save
immediately, instead of only after you click away from the field.
* Improved: Core – Dashboard alerts now explain what is wrong and what to do the
moment you hover them, and each link opens the exact settings page that fixes
it.
* Improved: Core – Inline link-style actions (remove, add, in-page links) now use
the brand colour, with delete actions in red, instead of the default WordPress
blue.
* Improved: Core – Secondary text, status badges and inline link actions now meet
WCAG 2.1 AA colour contrast for better readability.
* Improved: Core – A floating Save bar with an unsaved-changes count appears the
moment you edit a setting and follows you as you scroll, so you can save without
scrolling back up.
#### 2.4.0
* Added: Backup – Off-site backups to S3, WebDAV, SFTP and pCloud (plus Google
Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive in Beta) with setup guides, a Remote Copies browser
to restore after a server loss, and email reports after scheduled backups.
* Added: Core – Full multisite support with per-site isolation (Beta), a dashboard
Notifications panel, and a cross-module dashboard alerts widget.
* Added: Redirections – Per-rule status codes (301/302/307/410/451) and a 404 Monitor
that logs broken URLs and creates the missing redirect in one click.
* Added: SEO/GEO – A GEO/AEO tab with an llms.txt file for AI answer engines, one-
click JSON-LD templates, and SEO/GEO editing with live scoring inside Elementor.
* Added: Anti-Spam – Email-address protection that encodes addresses against harvesters(
with an [email] shortcode and block), plus Contact Form 7 and WPForms coverage.
* Added: Forms – Collect payments with Stripe Checkout, recording the entry only
after payment succeeds (Beta).
* Added: User Role Editor – Restrict any page or post to selected roles (with a[
be_restrict] shortcode), assign several roles from the profile screen, and auto-
snapshot permissions before each change.
* Added: Disable Comments – Disable comments on selected post types only, block
the XML-RPC and REST comment endpoints, and delete comments per post type.
* Added: Image Sizes – Regenerate thumbnails from the Media Library (row and bulk
actions) and optionally scale down oversized uploads.
* Added: Broken Links – Scheduled background scans (daily or weekly) with optional
email alerts and one-click Unlink that keeps the anchor text.
* Added: Database Optimizer – A new Autoload tab that flags which options are safe
to disable and toggles them in one click.
* Added: Cookie Banner – One-click Cookie Policy page with an auto-generated declaration
table and a [blaminhor_cookie_declaration] shortcode.
* Added: Maintenance – Built-in email capture on the coming-soon page, stored locally
with CSV export and no third-party service.
* Added: Mute Core Emails – A single “mute everything” switch plus control over
auto-update emails.
* Added: Domain Changer – One-click Undo of the last domain change, with the post
GUID preserved and selectable column exclusions.
* Added: Cache & Performance – A Script & Style Manager to stop specific scripts
or styles from loading, everywhere or on chosen URLs.
* Added: HTTPS Redirect – A daily SSL certificate check that emails an alert a
chosen number of days before expiry.
* Added: Fatal Error Recovery – Detect a theme-caused fatal error and switch to
a safe theme from recovery mode.
* Added: Favicon Generator – A live preview of the icon in a browser tab and on
a phone home screen before generating.
* Fixed: Core – Clicking an inactive module now activates it and opens its settings
instead of an “access denied” error; uninstall removes every table (including
the cookie-consent and Web Vitals tables) and the backups folder; and filter
pills no longer show an underline.
* Fixed: SEO/GEO – Scores read the real content of Elementor pages, count protocol/
root-relative links and no longer treat an empty alt as alt text; the SEO box
is hidden for content with no public page.
* Fixed: Cache & Performance – Captcha scripts (Turnstile, hCaptcha) are excluded
from JS delay and optimizations skip the login page, so forms and sign-in keep
working.
* Fixed: Core – A leftover internal name was removed from the Image Sizes help
text and the exported database-backup header.
* Improved: SEO/GEO – Scoring now uses defensible on-page signals with partial-
credit (amber) states and clearer focus-keyword guidance.
* Improved: SMTP Mailer – The general settings show one option per row with clear
on/off toggles.
#### 2.3.2
* Fixed: Database Optimizer – The “Optimize Tables” button returns to its normal
label as soon as optimization finishes, even during the short page reload.
* Fixed: Database Optimizer – The “Items to Clean” count reaches zero after a full
cleanup; comments awaiting moderation are listed separately since Clean All never
removes them.
* Improved: SEO/GEO – When the SEO title or description is empty, a hint explains
search engines build it automatically, and clicking the preview copies that suggestion
in as an editable starting point.
* Improved: Backup – The backup list explains that the listed sizes are those of
the compressed files, smaller than the database since indexes are rebuilt on
restore, and can vary slightly between backups.
#### 2.3.1
* Added: Post Types Order, Favicon and User Role Editor – One-click import from
their matching standalone plugin (Custom Taxonomy Order, Favicon by RealFaviconGenerator,
and User Role Editor) so you keep your existing order, icon and custom capabilities
when you switch to Blaminhor Essentials.
* Fixed: Backup – Named database backups keep their name after being downloaded
and re-uploaded to another site; deleting the safety backup from the restore
notice clears it from the list and counter; a restore no longer leaves “plugin
file does not exist” errors (plugins missing from the backup are switched off
cleanly); and media-heavy sites no longer stall, since already-compressed files
like images, video and PDFs skip pointless re-compression.
#### 2.3.0
* New module: Forms (Beta) – Accessible contact forms with a drag-and-drop builder,
Gutenberg block and shortcode; submissions are stored in the database and exportable
as CSV; spam is blocked without a CAPTCHA by default, with optional reCAPTCHA
or Cloudflare Turnstile; conditional logic and multi-step forms; GDPR controls(
consent field, optional hashed IP, automatic entry purge); merge tags like {name}
and a fully editable notification body with an {all_fields} recap; notifications
and auto-replies go through your SMTP relay.
* Added: Cache & Performance – Preload and Purge & preload buttons in the overview
and toolbar Cache menu warm your pages on demand with a live progress bar, and
after a theme change clears your Critical CSS a dismissible notice regenerates
it in one click.
* Added: Backup – A manual backup can be given a name shown in the list and file
name, and the list flags backups made on a different domain so you can see which
ones need a domain change on restore.
* Fixed: Backup – Uploaded backups keep their name, date and label and import once
cleanly without duplicates or stray archives; a restore keeps you signed in and
on your current site address even when the backup came from another domain (prompting
a domain change to finish), reports its exact outcome including any file it could
not write, blocks a second restore while one is running, and ends a stalled step
with a clear message; scheduled retention deletes the oldest backups as configured,
the table sorts by the column you click, and automatic pre-update backups get
a clean file name.
* Improved: Cache & Performance – Clearing the cache simply empties it without
starting a background crawl, so a quick purge stays quick.
* Improved: Backup – The pre-restore safety backup snapshots only what the restore
will overwrite, so a database-only restore is far faster, and tells you when
no rollback point exists; the Undo offer appears only for a complete, valid safety
backup; an empty or corrupt archive leaves your folder untouched; and leftover
temp files are cleaned on the next run while files over 100MB skipped from a
backup are listed in the log.
#### 2.2.0
* New module: Anti-Spam Honeypot – Blocks spam bots on your comment, login, registration
and password forms with a hidden trap — no CAPTCHA, no external service; spam
goes to the recoverable Spam queue, with a link filter, IP throttle, fail-open
login and a privacy-friendly journal of hashed IPs.
#### 2.1.1
* Improved: Backup – Restoring a backup runs smoothly through to completion, including
large and previously-uploaded backups.
* Improved: Backup – Restoring a site to a new web address keeps both the site
and the admin reachable.
* Improved: Backup – Restore options stay available, settings save safely while
a backup runs, and the confirmation buttons read clearly.
* Improved: Cache & Performance – Cache preloading runs reliably through to completion.
#### 2.1.0
* Added: Cache & Performance – Major overhaul: a new Overview of your whole cache
stack, a live preview editor, and an empirical auto-pilot that tests each optimisation
on your real pages before recommending it.
* Improved: Cache & Performance – Plain-language relabel across every tab, settings
regrouped by intent, and a one-click auto-pilot with a real progress bar.
* Fixed: Cache & Performance – Security hardening: logged-in pages can no longer
leak to anonymous visitors, plus fixes for cache poisoning, SSRF on self-hosted
Google Fonts, and rate-limit bypass.
* Fixed: Cache & Performance – Page caching is more reliable: correct HTML minification
spacing, coalesced purge cycles, object-cache (Redis/Memcached) invalidation,
and accurate host detection.
* Removed: Cache & Performance – Dropped the unsafe “cache pages for logged-in
visitors” option and a few non-functional toggles.
* Fixed: SMTP Mailer – Drag-and-drop relay reordering works again and saves reliably;
the test result now shows next to the relay you tested.
* Improved: Core – Enabling a module no longer jumps you to its settings, so you
can switch several on in a row; modules that still need configuring show a “Needs
setup” badge.
#### 2.0.2
* Fixed: Cache & Performance – Clear button on per-template Critical CSS rows is
now a standard secondary button, visually consistent with the adjacent Generate
button.
* Updated: Core – Dashboard vertical spacing tightened so the header, search bar
and category grid stay compactly aligned on a single 16px rhythm.
#### 2.0.1
* Updated: Core – Button corners now match the WordPress 7 native style (2px radius)
for a tighter, more familiar look across every module.
#### 2.0.0
* Improved: Core – Plugin redesigned across all 21 modules on a unified visual
grammar aligned with WordPress 7: buttons, fields, tables, tabs and notices share
the same look.
* Improved: Core – Full WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility: keyboard navigation, screen-
reader support (ARIA), focus rings on every interactive element and reduced-motion
support.
* Improved: Core – Codebase modernised on PHP 8.1 with strict types, enums and
value objects for tighter security and faster execution.
* Improved: Core – Save bar at top and bottom of every module shows the unsaved-
changes count and offers one-click Cancel and Save.
* Improved: Core – Redesigned tab bar (per-tab unsaved-changes dot, Alt+1..9 keyboard
shortcuts), and tabs persist in the URL for reloads and shared links.
* Improved: Core – Dashboard loads faster with a lighter stylesheet footprint,
and module pages follow your WordPress admin colour scheme.
* Added: Core – Optional ‘Alerts & quick actions’ dashboard widget that surfaces
module alerts and exposes shortcut buttons on the WP dashboard (off by default).
* Improved: SEO/GEO – Content Overview redesigned with stat cards, filters, search,
pagination, bulk actions (indexed/noindex/clear meta) and a new ‘All indexed
types’ view.
* Improved: Cookie Banner – GDPR Article 7 personal-data exporters and erasers
added for privacy-rights requests.
* Improved: Broken Links – Scan terminal prefixes each line with a status icon (
success/warning/error) for clearer reading.
* Fixed: Core – Security hardening: Domain Changer SQL injection during migration,
Backup filename injection on downloads, Cache & Performance POST input handling.
* Fixed: Core – Localisation gaps closed: Backup list dates, SEO/GEO archive date
placeholder and Broken Links result counts now follow the active language (singular/
plural).
