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/search-vista/sv-wp-default-settings/archive/refs/heads/main.zip
No built-in updater. New versions won't appear under Dashboard → Updates. Install new releases yourself, or let Git Updater track the repository.

Purpose

This WordPress plugin sets a collection of sensible default configuration options automatically when activated. It is designed for SearchVista WordPress installations, but can be used anywhere you want to quickly apply preferred defaults.

Features

  • Applies a range of default WordPress settings (privacy, comments, permalinks, avatars, etc.)
  • Deletes the default "Hello world!" post and comment
  • Runs only once, on plugin activation
  • No UI, admin menu, or plugin install/activation helpers

How it works

When activated, the plugin:

  • Updates WordPress options for privacy, comments, permalinks, avatars, and more
  • Flushes rewrite rules to apply permalink changes
  • Deletes the default post and comment (if present)

Usage

  1. Upload the plugin to your WordPress installation
  2. Activate it from the Plugins page
  3. The settings are applied automatically

No recommended plugin install or admin page

This plugin does not install or recommend other plugins, nor does it add any admin pages or notices.
