Lightweight Term Count Update

Makes term count updates less painful

★ 34stars

Install

Download source zip No release zip yet

This is the repository archive. It installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow.

Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:

wp plugin install https://github.com/automattic/lightweight-term-count-update/archive/refs/heads/master.zip
No built-in updater. New versions won't appear under Dashboard → Updates. Install new releases yourself, or let Git Updater track the repository.

This plugin prevents WordPress from running term count queries.

Rather, it will instead perform a simple increment/decrement on the post count that does not require a recalculation.
