FAQ
-
Does this plugin also show IDs in the backend?
-
No. This plugin is intentionally designed to remain lightweight and focused on a single purpose: quickly accessing content by ID from the admin bar.
If you need to view IDs within the WordPress admin interface, there are other plugins available that provide this functionality. Alternatively, you can often find the ID by hovering over an “Edit” link, where it appears in the URL.
