## Àpèjúwe

Machete is a simple suite of tools that solves common WordPress annoyances using
as few resources as possible. Machete doesnÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t cover every single 
use case, but there is a huge amount of sites that would require less plugins if
they used Machete.

All Machete tools have two things in common: they solve problems faced by many web
developers and they do it using as few server resources as possible.

So far, Machete includes the following tools:

#### WordPress Optimization

WordPress places a lot of code inside the `<head>` tag just to keep backward compatibility
or to enable optional features. You can disable most of it and save some time from
each page request while making your installation safer.

#### Cookies & GDPR Warning

We know you hate cookie warning bars. Well, this is the least hateable cookie bar
youÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’ll find. It is really light, doesnÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t affect your
PageSpeed score and plays well with static cache plugins.

#### Analytics and custom code

You donÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t need a zillion plugins to perform easy tasks like inserting
a verification meta tag (Google Search Console, Bing, Pinterest), a json-ld snippet
or a custom stylesheet (Google Fonts, Print Styles, accessibility tweaks…).

The Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager tracking codes are PageSpeed optimized,
GPDR friendly.

#### Maintenance mode

The maintenance mode that ships with WordPress is just a basic lock-down that is
activated whenever you do a major update. With machete Maintenance Mode you can 
hide your unfinished page from visitors and search engines, give your clients a 
secure temporary access and lock your site without affecting your SEO.

#### Post & Page cloner

Adds a “duplicate” link to post, page and most post types lists. Also adds “copy
to new draft” function to the post editor.

#### Social Sharing Buttons

Social sharing done the Machete way. The icons are made as a custom webfont embedded
in a minified CSS file that only weighs 5.8KB. The sharing actions use each platformÌtumọ̀
Yorùbá: ’s native share URL.

#### WooCommerce Utils

WooCommerce was designed to work for every possible use case, but that often leads
to unexpected behavior. These simple fixes can improve the WooCommerce user experience
by making it behave as clients expect.

## Ìgbéwọlẹ̀

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/machete` directory, or install
    the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress
 3. Configure each tool using the corresponding link on the **Machete** side menu

## FAQ

### DoesnÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t plugin X do that better?

Yes, but Machete does it well enough and is probably much lighter.

### Is there any set-it-and-forget-it alternative to Machete?

Machete is meant to be used as a development suite. If you are looking for a simpler
solution to cut out WordPress bloat, you should have a look at WordPress [WPO Tweaks & Optimizations by Fernando Tellado](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpo-tweaks/).

### Why does WordFence show a warning when I save my options?

Machete caches some of its options to files located in `wp-content\uploads\machete\`
to speed up loading. This is completely safe, but itÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s not a normal
WordPress behaviour and it might make plugins like WordFence raise a warning. Just
whitelist the action, save again and youÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’ll be fine.

### Why doesnÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t Machete have an option to disable Gutenberg?

Like it or not, the WordPress Block Editor (codenamed Gutenberg) is here to stay.
Instead of disabling Gutenberg, you should be focusing on updating you workflow 
to use it. If you need to disable Gutenberg during the transition, you should use
the official [Classic Editor plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/).

I use Machete mainly to clean up the <head> and remove unnecessary scripts. It does
exactly what it promises: improves performance and reduces exposure to automated
attacks, all from a simple, easy-to-use interface. Recommended if you know what 
youÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’re doing and use a classic theme or a builder like Elementor.

Gives the tools a wordpress site needs to improve its performance and works well
with caching plugins. Loved the lite solutions for cookies and social media sharing.
Very easy to configure.
