Plugin Description
CORE: WordPress utilities
CORE is a utility-based, unintrusive WordPress plugin. It offers a simple UI to tweak many sensible default settings to quickstart your new fresh WordPress project. It’s recommended for developers building custom themes with ACF.
CORE builds on top of Wowholic’s +5 years of experience developing fully custom WordPress sites, for all sorts of customers and industries. We made this plugin to be more efficient and productive in our own work, and we hope it helps you too!
