Block Weight Inspector

Block Weight Inspector adds a sidebar panel in the block editor that maps blocks in the current post/page to the CSS and JS assets they register. It estimates local asset sizes, highlights top offenders, and exports a JSON report. It can also generate a suggested conditional-loading snippet to help you dequeue assets when a block is not present. It also adds a Tools -> Block Weight Inspector screen for auditing existing posts without opening the editor. Note: The inspector preserves block comment delimiters when analyzing content so parse_blocks() remains accurate after sanitization. Key features: Block -> asset mapping using registered block metadata. Estimated size for local assets. Top offenders summary and full asset list. JSON export for sharing or auditing. Suggested conditional-loading rules (review before use).

Dynamic Asset Versioning

WordPress asset versioning can be a double-edged sword: on one-hand, it’s extremely effective for cache-busting, ensuring you aren’t sharing stale scripts or styles to your visitors. On the other hand, having to manually increment a version number is a pain (even as a constant), often resulting in a version control history full of “bumping the version number” commits. Dynamic Asset Versioning aims to simplify this process: if an enqueued asset doesn’t have an explicit version number, the plugin will get the timestamp of the last time the file was changed and use that as the version number. It’s easy: you touch the file, the version number is updated automatically. Usage Once Dynamic Asset Versioning is active, it will automatically determine version numbers based on file modification time for any [non-core] files that have been enqueued using wp_enqueue_style() or wp_enqueue_script(). Example wp_enqueue_style( 'my-theme-styles', get_template_directory_uri() . '/assets/css/my-styles.css', array( 'some-other-styles' ), false, // Don't worry about it, Dynamic Asset Versioning has you covered! 'screen' ); Special thanks A special thanks goes out to 10up, who helped inspire the original concept of this plugin.
