When WordPress challenges arise that are beyond your current expertise, getting help from the community becomes essential. Support volunteers can better diagnose your issues when they can quickly review your site’s configuration, hosting environment, and basic statistics. This plugin creates a dashboard widget that consolidates all essential diagnostic information in one convenient location, with a simple one-click copy feature to share the details wherever you need help. ### Key Features * **One-Click Copy** – Modern clipboard functionality with fallback support for all browsers * **Comprehensive Information** – WordPress version, themes, plugins, server config, and more * **Configurable Sections** – Show or hide specific diagnostic sections as needed * **Shortcode Support** – Create a dedicated diagnostic page with `[diagnostic_glance]` * **Mobile Responsive** – Works perfectly on all device sizes * **Accessibility Ready** – Full keyboard navigation and screen reader support * **Translation Ready** – Complete internationalization support * **Privacy Focused** – No external connections, all data stays on your server ### Information Collected * **WordPress Version** and configuration settings * **Themes** – All installed themes with version numbers and active theme indicator * **Plugins** – All installed plugins with version numbers and activation status * **WordPress Configuration** – Memory limits, debug settings, permalink structure * **Server Information** – Web server type, PHP version, MySQL version, memory settings * **PHP Extensions** – All loaded PHP modules and extensions * **Apache/Nginx Modules** – Web server modules (when available) * **Site Statistics** – User counts, posts, pages, comments, and media library totals ### Why Use Diagnostic Glance?

Does enqueueing the wrong way compared to current WP practice. From log: Notice: wp_enqueue_script was called incorrectly. Scripts and styles should not be registered or enqueued until the wp_enqueue_scripts, admin_enqueue_scripts, or login_enqueue_scripts hooks. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/8e8484993ebc5c4bf04d9d2a38d4cf111172d6c4d691368ca48945373cbc4485? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Perfect](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/perfect-2738/)󠁿 [D](https://profiles.wordpress.org/idylanrobertson/) 3 September 2016 I wish I’d found this sooner! Does exactly as described and worked perfectly. Thank you very much for this plugin. I’m sorry to see the low number of installs and no other reviews yet. Please don’t get discouraged – I’m sure if people knew about this plugin, they’d find it super useful. Surely all the lost souls in the support forums would be able to better communicate with WP gurus if they’d use this plugin! Please continue to maintain and update this plugin!
