Install

No release zip yet. The repository archive installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow:

wp plugin install https://github.com/wp-fuse/script-injector/archive/refs/heads/main.zip

Declares an update source (https://github.com/wp-fuse/script-injector), so updates arrive through the plugin's own updater.

Readme

Script Injector

Script Injector is a lightweight WordPress plugin that allows you to easily insert custom scripts (like Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Google Tag Manager, etc.) into your website's header, body, or footer.

Features

  • Header Scripts: Insert scripts into the <head> section of your site.
  • Body Scripts: Insert scripts immediately after the opening <body> tag.
  • Footer Scripts: Insert scripts into the <footer> section of your site.
  • Permission Check: Only users with manage_options capability can access the settings page.
  • Clean Execution: Scripts are injected using standard WordPress hooks (wp_head, wp_body_open, wp_footer).

Performance

This plugin is engineered for minimal overhead:

  • Admin/front-end code isolation: Admin code (settings, menus, rendering) is never loaded on public pages.
  • Single DB query: Only one get_option call per request on the front-end.
  • Early bail-out: If no scripts are configured, the plugin exits immediately — zero hooks registered.
  • Conditional hooks: Only hooks for non-empty script fields are registered.
  • Zero global functions: All logic uses closures, avoiding namespace pollution.

Installation

  1. Upload the script-injector folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
  3. Access the settings via Settings → Scripts.

How to use

  1. Go to the Scripts settings page.
  2. Paste your script code (e.g., ``) into the corresponding field (Header, Body, or Footer).
  3. Click "Save Changes".

Requirements

  • WordPress 5.2+ (for wp_body_open support)
  • PHP 7.0+
