Machine Language

Toggles human and machine language (aka ID-s) on admin pages.

Only for development!

This plugin shows you the ID-s of almost all form fields including selects, checkboxes and radio buttons like in wp-admin/options.php.

It works only on WordPress Settings API-like formatted — not necessarily API generated — admin pages. E.g. <input> elements cannot be wrapped in <span>.

Activation

You can find the plugin’s checkbox in standard Screen Options (upper right corner). This checkbox could be overwritten — thus hidden — by poorly written plugins. To restrict Machine Language to a certain admin page, copy this to your wp-config.php:

For example this line causes to run only on Settings / Reading.

기능

• Basically all input ID-s are displayed in place of labels, actually for attributes of labels
• select-s get a title showing all option values comma separated (hover over select-s with your mouse)
• option-s get values appended in the form of “original option text|value”
• Radio button labels will show: “name|value”
• Descriptions (p-s and span-s with “description” class) will be hidden, this way Machine Language will clean up all admin pages, descriptions are hidden by CSS, so there’s no FOUC

Other notes

• select-s with empty values are not
• The plugin’s checkbox in Screen Options is effective immediately
• The code is designed as a must use plugin, so there is no separated Javascript or CSS file
• State of Machine Language is saved as a user option so it is a per user setting
