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
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.
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.
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_options are 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.
