Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

The Clean My Archives plugin was developed because so many archives plugins were overly complicated. I wanted something extremely simple to use that simply got the job done on my own site’s archives.

Therefore, I created a simple [clean-my-archives] shortcode that you can place on any page (or any shortcode-ready area) and list your post archives by month and year.

This plugin also integrates with WordPress caching plugins. So, long lists of archives can be cached for later use and loaded quickly. If you have many years of blog posts, I highly recommend some sort of persistent caching or paginating your archives (see FAQ).

Professional Support

If you need professional plugin support from me, the plugin author, you can access the support forums at Theme Hybrid, which is a professional WordPress help/support site where I handle support for all my plugins and themes for a community of 75,000+ users (and growing).

Plugin Development

If you’re a theme author, plugin author, or just a code hobbyist, you can follow the development of this plugin on it’s GitHub repository.

Donations

Yes, I do accept donations. If you want to donate, you can do so from my donations page or grab me something from my Amazon Wish List.

I appreciate all donations, no matter the size. Further development of this plugin is not contingent on donations, but they are always a nice incentive.
