Leírás
DashClean is a modular WordPress admin optimization plugin built for developers, agencies, and site owners who need a cleaner, faster, and more professional wp-admin experience.
Version 2.0.0 introduces a service-layer architecture with administrator protection, schema-aware settings migration, runtime discovery caching, and scalable user targeting — designed for client deployments and large WordPress installations.
Core Capabilities
- Menu Cleaner — Hide admin menu and submenu items by role or user.
- Dashboard Widget Manager — Remove all or specific dashboard widgets.
- Admin Bar Cleaner — Hide toolbar nodes for targeted users.
- Notice Cleaner — Suppress admin notices while optionally keeping critical errors.
- Performance Optimization Tools — Disable emojis, jQuery Migrate, header junk, and selectively dequeue frontend assets.
- Role-Based Visibility Controls — Apply cleaning rules to selected roles.
- User-Specific Targeting — Fine-tune restrictions to individual user accounts.
- Preset Management System — Apply Client or Developer templates; save custom snapshots.
- Import / Export Settings — Move configurations between sites with JSON backups.
- Schema-Aware Settings Migration — Automatic compatibility for legacy export files.
- Runtime Discovery Cache System — Reliable widget, admin bar, and asset inventories.
- Safe Administrator Protection Layer — Users with
manage_optionsare never restricted. - AJAX User Search & Scalability — Paginated user search for large sites (no bulk loading).
- Multisite-Aware Cleanup Support — Uninstall removes data across network sites.
- Translation Ready — Full text domain support with POT catalog included.
Why DashClean
Unlike heavy white-label plugins, DashClean uses a performance-first modular design. Optional modules load only when enabled. Settings are stored in a single option with schema versioning for safe upgrades.
Administrators always retain full access. Presets merge into existing configuration rather than wiping unrelated module settings.
Képernyőmentések
Telepítés
- Upload the
dashcleanfolder to/wp-content/plugins/. - Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu in WordPress.
- Open DashClean in the admin sidebar to configure modules.
- Visit the WordPress Dashboard once to populate the widget discovery cache.
- Visit the site frontend once (with Performance enabled) to seed asset discovery.
GYIK
-
Is DashClean free?
-
Yes. DashClean is open-source software released under the GPL v2 or later.
-
Will this slow down my site?
-
No. Disabled modules do not register hooks. Asset discovery uses hash-based transient writes to avoid per-request database churn. The Access tab uses AJAX search instead of loading full user lists.
-
Can administrators be locked out?
-
No. Version 2.0.0 includes an administrator protection layer. Users with the
manage_optionscapability bypass all cleaner restrictions. The DashClean settings page remains accessible for recovery. -
Can I hide DashClean from clients?
-
The DashClean settings menu requires
manage_options. Non-administrator roles cannot access plugin settings by default. Use the Access module to apply cleaning rules to specific roles and users. -
Do presets overwrite my entire configuration?
-
No. Starting in 2.0.0, applying a preset merges only the keys defined in that preset. Your existing Menu Cleaner, Dashboard, and other module settings outside the preset remain intact.
-
Does DashClean work on multisite?
-
Yes. Uninstall cleanup runs on all network sites. Configure each site independently through its own DashClean settings.
-
Is DashClean translation ready?
-
Yes. The plugin loads the
dashcleantext domain and includes a POT file in/languages/.

2.0.0
Major architecture and production hardening release.
Added:
* Administrator protection layer (User_Access service)
* Centralized User Targeting system (User_Targeting service)
* Schema migration framework with schema_version support
* Runtime discovery caching for dashboard widgets and admin bar nodes
* AJAX paginated user search for Access tab (20 results per request)
* Multisite uninstall cleanup across all network sites
* Translation loading via load_plugin_textdomain()
* Silence index.php files throughout plugin directories
* dashclean_bypass_admin_protection filter for extensibility
Changed:
* Preset application now merges preset keys into existing settings (preserves unrelated modules)
* Settings class refactored to pure data layer (controllers own nonce/lifecycle)
* Discovery system redesigned with hook-time collection and cached inventories
* Asset discovery optimized with hash-based transient write skipping
* User targeting centralized in single service (removed duplicated logic)
* Import/export upgraded with schema validation and migration path
* Custom preset snapshots saved from server-side persisted settings
* Discovery cache diff checks to prevent redundant option writes
* Improved selected-user display limits (up to 1,000 users)
* Strict admin tab whitelist validation
Fixed:
* Administrator lockout scenarios via menu hiding and direct URL blocking
* Preset configuration overwrite wiping unrelated module settings
* Nonce lifecycle inconsistencies for active_preset clearing
* Dashboard widget and admin bar discovery reliability on settings page
* Asset transient write inefficiency on every frontend page load
* Unlimited get_users() loading on Access tab
* Hardcoded JavaScript strings not passed through localization
* Presets master toggle outside form submission path
* Documentation inaccuracies (removed nonexistent „Blogger Mode” preset reference)
* Removed deprecated Role_Manager targeting method
Security:
* Protected administrators bypass all cleaner restrictions
* Improved import file path validation (no sanitization of filesystem tmp paths)
* Removed HTTP/$_POST concerns from Settings data layer
Performance:
* Eliminated unnecessary transient writes when asset inventory unchanged
* Removed rewrite flush on activation and deactivation
* Scalable user search replaces bulk role roster loading
* Reduced admin page load on large-user installations
Developer:
* New service-layer architecture (User_Access, User_Targeting, Discovery, Schema)
* Schema migration support for forward-compatible imports
* Cleaner module integrations via shared targeting service
* Improved maintainability and reduced code duplication
* Internal maintainability and final pre-release cleanup improvements
