Smart Category Ordering: What is the “Smart Title” option and how is it used?

When sorting by “Smart Title”, the leading ‘a’, ‘an’ or ‘the’ is filtered from the post title when sorting. This is the only difference between “Smart Title” and “Title.”

WPDB Profiling: Does this plugin profile the admin? I am developing a plugin and want to make sure it isn’t overloading resources.

The plugin will show profiling on both the front and back end when enabled.

WPDB Profiling: I am receiving an error that I do not have caching enabled. What does this mean? Is it bad?

We highly recommend installing some form of caching utility. We recommend WP Super Cache or Batcache. WP Super Cache will write static files to your web server which decreases the database load for pages that are viewed frequently. Batcache is nice for users who may not have access or permissions to write files to the file system. Batcache utilized the memcache process installed on the server and caches through that. If you are building a plugin on a development environment, it is not necessary to install a caching tool, although we recommend you do it before you launch the plugin to see if there are any queries that would improve with the built in WordPress caching functions.

WPDB Profiling: I only want to display the profiling if a user is logged in with administrator privileges. Can this be done?

On the plugin management screen, there is an option to display to logged in users. Select the user group you wish to display the profiling and save. You can define 4 different user group types.

WPDB Profiling: When I view the profile, it shows no results and says Total Number of Queries: 0 and Total Time: 0

Make sure that you have your footer.php file correctly set up. Specifically, look for the <?php wp_footer(); ?> tag. This should be at the very bottom of your file (preferably the very last line). If the footer tag is properly defined, verify that you have specified `define(‘SAVEQUERIES’, true);` in your wp-config.php.
