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.
ASE has an intuitive interface and every feature is useful. I recommend that it be a standard plugin on all of your WordPress sites.
Scott MooreGreat little plugin that includes a lot of features that I previously had to install multiple plugins for. Not had any errors with it so far.
@courageousdesignASE is a highly recommended, amazing product that punches way above its weight!

@techtonedI have abused this little plugin. So simple yet one of my favorites.
@ChukwithakIf you’ve installed a WordPress setup, ASE should be the first plugin to add.
@rajeshkambojYou can get more features with specialist, standalone plugins, or use ASE to get >80% of the functionality you actually need with one clean plugin.
