Plugin Description
Sometimes, you run into a situation where you just need to manually run a script. The actual logic might be as simple as generating a csv from a query, or changing a user’s settings, or even just running a single line of SQL. WordPress makes this difficult.
There are many hacky solutions to the problem, but most of them lack security or are too difficult for anyone but a developer to run or just take too long to build. That’s where we come in.
WP Utility Script Runner lets you start with a simple 17 line template, add in your custom code, save to the server, and in minutes you have a secure, fully featured utility, that you can safely run from the WordPress dashboard.
But that’s not all! With a few extra lines of code, your utility can:
- Accept user input
- Accept file input
- Run at a future date and time
- Run on a recurring schedule
- Run large tasks by breaking them up into several smaller tasks, and saving state.
- Create reports and other output files
Screenshots
The simplest version of a utility only has 17 lines of required code.
Utilities can be enabled and disabled from the manage tab
Scripts are tucked away behind accordions, to prevent accidentally running them.
Output is presented in real-time, without refreshing the page
