WP General: Site Booster Panel
The Ocean Site Booster's WP General panel is a standalone module and enables you to control core WordPress features that may be redundant or present an issue related to your workflow and website maintenance.
By disabling WordPress core features you don't need or use, you're boosting your website's performance and tailoring WordPress to fit you exact needs.
To enable WP General features, toggle to enable the module.
Enable (or disable) any option you would like to use, then save changes at the bottom of the module page.
Available WP General options include:
Disable Gutenberg Editor
Disable Gutenberg Editor option allows you to disable the Wordpress Gutenberg editor (for posts, pages, etc) and utilize the Classic Editor instead, without the need to install any third-party plugins.
Disable Gutenberg Widgets
Disable Gutenberg Widgets options allows you to disable the Gutenberg block editor in the WordPress widgets area (Appearance > Widgets) and utilize the Classic Widgets instead. No need to use or install any third-party plugins.
Revisions Control
Revisions Control option allows you to disable WordPress revisions, enable unlimited revisions or set up a custom number of revisions to save storage on your server and/or database.
WordPress revisions is a system that stores a record of every saved draft or published update.
Depending on your needs, determine which option would be the best for you:
- Unlimited: store an unlimited number of revisions.
- No Revisions: store no revisions.
- Custom Number: assign a custom number of revisions to store.
Some hosting providers control the WordPress revisions option on the hosting level, so you may not be able to manipulate this using our plugin.
Custom Revisions Number
Custom Revisions Number option appears if you select the Custom Number option for the Revisions Control feature.
Instead of using disabling revisions entirely, you can set up any reasonable number of revisions to store. For example, from 3 up to 10.
Apply Custom Revisions On
Apply Custom Revisions On option appears if you select the Custom Number option for the Revisions Control feature.
Available options for Apply Custom Revisions On include:
- All: custom number of revisions will be applied on all post types that support revisions without exception.
- Selected Items: custom number of revisions will be applied only on post types you choose and insert into the Revisions Post Type box.
Revisions Post Type
Revisions Post Type option appears if you select the Custom Number option for the Revisions Control feature, and if Selected Items option is selected for Apply Custom Revisions On item.
This option allows you to apply the selected revisions number only on specific post types, such as blog posts or pages.
The correct way to insert items in the box is items being separated by a coma ( , ), and without using space or any other special characters:
- correct: page,post,portfolio
- incorrect: page post
- also incorrect: page, post, portfolio
Disable Automatic Updates
This option enables you to control automatic updates in a bulk, for WordPress core, themes or plugins.
Available options include:
- Enable All Automatic Updates: all updates (WordPress core, themes and plugins) are enabled.
- Disable all automatic updates: all updates are disabled.
- Disable themes auto-updates: disable automatic updates for WordPress themes only.
- Disable plugins auto updates: disable automatic updates for WordPress plugins only.
- Disable all WordPress core updates: disable automatic updates for WordPress core only.
Disable Automatic Updates feature, if in use, only disables automatic updates. Updates are still visible (when available) and you can still update everything manually.
Automatic Updates control can be influenced by your server and/or hosting provider settings.
