Clutter Free

About

Clutter Free is a plugin that lets you hide portions of the WordPress posting interface that you rarely (or never) use. Instead of being minimized (and still taking up room), they’ll be completely invisible.

Clutter Free works on WordPress 2.0.5 and above. With earlier WordPress versions, there are a few areas that cannot be hidden. Upgrade!

Download

Instructions

  • Download and unzip
  • Upload clutter-free.php to your /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
  • Activate it from within the WordPress admin interface.
  • Go to your WordPress user profile (”My Account” for 2.0.x and “My Profile” for 2.1)
  • Uncheck any elements you do not want to appear on your post screen
  • Save your profile

Versions

  • 0.4 Fixed an array bug, cleaned up some code
  • 0.3 The “Preview” and “Image Upload” sections are now removed (not just hidden with CSS) which makes editing posts faster (code adapted from Owen Winkler’s Kill Preview plugin)
  • 0.2 Added “quicktags” blocking
  • 0.1 Initial release

I’ve spent a lot of time writing this code and supporting it. If you derive some benefit from this code, please consider showing your gratitute in a more tangible
way. Thanks!

I have received $30.00 this month for my coding efforts.

    I think we can make ue of it, for admin to be able to retrict what other users can see and what they cant, insted of individual user to b able to use it. say for multi-blogger site ??

    i hope i make sense ;)

    Hi, first of all thanks for releasing this great plugin to the public!

    I am running the latest wordpress release on Dreamhost with php5 and mysql 4 something I believe, and when having activated your plugin, I only receive blank edit pages. So basically it shows nothing at all.

    This is probably not the feature I was looking for, so might this be a bug? I am not really into this, so if you got a solution to this I’d appreciate it!

    I agree with Comment #111, The admin should be able to set the visibility globally as opposed to a user to user basis. For example, I am building a social networking site and there are a lot of things I want to hide from everyone. Any Ideas?

    Hi, guys

    So many of you ask for it, I did at simple google search.
    Here is a patched version with global options.

    I am using WordPress as a content management system for one of my less geeky clients. It is highly unlikely that he will ever use tags. It would be nice to have the option to hide the tag input field just below the editor textarea.

    Thanks for a great plugin!

    Amazing plugin! Unfortunately, it doesn’t allow blocking of the ‘Tags’ area (under the main post section). To remedy this, I added this at line 39:

    ‘tagdiv’ => __(’Tags’, ‘clutter-free’),

    Tested, works. Hope that helps. Thanks for writing Clutter Free!
