Admin and Site Enhancements (ASE)
A modular and lightweight WordPress plugin to easily enhance various admin workflows and site aspects that replaces multiple plugins and saves you time, effort and money.
You can get more features with specialist, standalone plugins, or use ASE to get >80% of the functionality you actually need with one clean plugin.
