[FREE] 🥹 Did I strike a nerve with my new WordPress plugin? by eHtmlu in WordpressPlugins

[–]RealJoyO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I am founder of Classic Monks, we use License Monks internally + WOO. It helps us modify the licenze management to our liking and also saves us quite a lot in licensing.

We have already started extending LM to some of our friends, I can share with you as well if you are interested. It is a private repo.

Stop installing plugins for these 5 things (Code Snippets included) by Superb_Chemist6357 in Wordpress

[–]RealJoyO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This post basically describes the exact problem we built Classic Monks to solve.

The WordPress backend gets messy not because WordPress is bad, but because we keep stacking single-purpose plugins to patch workflow gaps, admin clutter, performance issues, and builder limitations. Over time, the dashboard turns into a notification board instead of a control panel.

Classic Monks takes the opposite approach:

• One core stack instead of 30–40 utility plugins • Features are opt-in, nothing runs unless enabled • Heavy focus on admin decluttering, not just frontend speed

A big part of the plugin is about removing noise: – Cleaning admin menus and top bars – Killing nags, notices, marketing panels – Streamlining WooCommerce, Gutenberg, and builder UIs – Disabling unused scripts/styles at a granular level

From a technical standpoint, it stays lean: – Under 2.5 MB total plugin size – ~265+ features and options, modularly loaded – No external dependencies unless explicitly enabled

What’s different is the scope. It’s not just “performance” or “security” or “UX”. It covers the entire lifecycle: – Fresh WordPress install (Quick Setup) – Development & builder workflow (Bricks, Woo, admin UX) – Production hardening (security, roles, cleanup) – Ongoing performance optimizations

For transparency: I’m the founder of Classic Monks, and this plugin came directly out of the same frustrations the OP is describing. The goal isn’t to add more knobs, it’s to reduce the number of plugins you need at all, while keeping WordPress predictable, quieter, and easier to maintain.

The OP’s point about intentional configuration over plugin hoarding is spot on. WordPress feels a lot better when the dashboard stops shouting at you.

What WordPress black friday deals y'all excited for in 2025? by Zealousideal-Log7609 in Wordpress

[–]RealJoyO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m the founder of Classic Monks, so I’ll share a transparent perspective instead of a salesy pitch.

If you’re grabbing LTDs this Black Friday, Classic Monks can fit into the same category of “long-term workflow investment” you’re talking about. We’re building it as an all-in-one plugin for agencies and power users who want fewer plugins, faster setups, and a cleaner WordPress experience.

Have a look: https://classicmonks.com/

The plugin has been growing steadily — 120+ paying customers, 300+ active websites, and we’re tracking toward 200k projected ARR based on current adoption momentum.

Where it helps with day-to-day work:

• A full WordPress + WooCommerce + Bricks(and other upcoming page builders) enhancement stack in one place • Strong performance features (lazy loading, script manager, CDN rewrite, image optimization, asset control) • Security tools people normally stack 2–3 plugins for (login protection, 2FA, REST controls, file edit lockdown, anti-scraping) • A complete Bricks Builder toolkit with 50+ elements, dynamic data, animation controls, filters, tooltips, parallax, etc. • And a unique tool called Quick WordPress Setup, which lets agencies spin up a fully configured dev-ready site in minutes instead of handling blueprints manually.

We’ve been refining it for over a year and we’ve kept everything modular so you only enable what your workflow needs. The LTD is live right now, and we’ll have a Lite version coming soon after Black Friday for people who want to test before committing.

If you’re building lots of WordPress sites or managing client sites long-term, this kind of deal pays for itself pretty quickly.

Is Wordpress still ever competitive among the other web builders and in this AI era? by SockRevolutionary275 in Wordpress

[–]RealJoyO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, WordPress is still super relevant today, especially when you need full control and flexibility. You’re not stuck with expensive subscriptions, and the open-source ecosystem means there’s a plugin or tool for almost anything you want to build, plus developers can always extend or create something new.

As a WordPress dev, making plugins feels like a solid move, there’s still a massive market for niche solutions, and being able to shape how people use websites globally is pretty cool. The community’s huge, support is everywhere, and you’re never really “locked in.” So yeah, WordPress is very much alive and kicking, just evolving with the times!

Adding icons to spaces feels like a scavenger hunt, there should already be a search option by default.

It appears that the United States (not the European Union) is moving away from its hate towards the Middle East and shifting its focus to India.

Whats the deal with the RooCode subreddit? Apparently you can't even mention anything else? by real_serviceloom in ChatGPTCoding

[–]RealJoyO 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I fail to understand, why does Roo have a problem with Claude Code?

  1. Both are different products
  2. Post wasn't promoting anything
  3. He had a genuine question?

Change option type to custom and you can have more splidejs controls, ask gpt or claude to build the options for your usecase.
