Description
WP Settings & Health Dashboard helps you identify what may be slowing down your WordPress site by exposing hidden database and configuration issues.
It highlights large database tables, analyzes autoloaded options (data loaded on every request), and provides key insights into WordPress settings, plugins, and server environment.
Built for developers and site admins, the plugin also allows you to generate clean, SQL-compatible database backup scripts for safekeeping or migration.

- Database Diagnostics: Identify large tables and potential database bloat.
- SQL Backups: Generate clean, SQL-compatible backup scripts for migration or security.
