## Description
A plugin with common features missed in WordPress, like favicon, meta tags, adding
HTML to head and footer, WordPress e-mail from header filter, etc.
I’ve developed this plugin for my own job. I’ve realized that when I create a
new
WordPress project, there are some features I have to plugin every time. I decided
to bundle they all into a single plugin, and I’m publishing it for other creators
who may find it useful too.
Take a look to the [Changelog](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/jb-common/changelog/)
for a complete feature list, you may be interested in some of them.
## Screenshots

* Detail of the popping group on the admin bar. Mind the users and plugins shortcuts,
and the W3C validator link for the current URL.

* The JB Common Configuration admin section. Each option is listed as name, description,
custom value and default value.

* The section for viewing the JB Common log contents. If you integrate the log
system with your software, you can view your outputs here.

* The info admin section. A complete reference for all functions, shortcodes, widgets
and features.
## Installation
1. Unzip `jb-common.zip` inside the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
3. Customize the plugin options for your own site.
## FAQ
#### Why not writting a plugin for each feature?
This plugin was designed for creating new WordPress sites faster, and managing one
plugin is faster than managing many.
#### I need only one of your features and I don’t want to install them all
Feel free to copy the code from that feature to your own plugin, but remember the
GNU/GPLv3 or later license!
#### Will you add new features in the next version?
Maybe. I accept suggestions, tell me on [the plugin’s WordPress Extend support section](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jb-common)
if you have one. Only features useful on most blogs will be included.
