Frequently Asked Questions

Who can use this plugin?

Users must be logged in and have the 'create_html_pages' capability. By default, this is granted to subscribers and administrators.

Can I inject HTML into specific pages only?

Currently, header, body, and footer injections are site-wide. Full pages are served at custom URLs.

Is the HTML sanitized?

Yes, basic HTML sanitization is applied using WordPress's wp_kses function. Meta refresh tags are removed from injections to prevent unwanted redirects.
