Maaaring hindi na ito minamantine o sinusuportahan at maaaring may mga isyu sa compatibility
kapag ginamit sa mas bagong bersyon ng WordPress.

## Deskripsyon

This WordPress plugin removes most, in my opinion, unneeded crappy dashboard, post
and page widgets, fixes formatted curly quote problems, checks for and removes Hello
Dolly plugin, removes junk header tags, removes generator header tag for extra security,
removes update notifications for non-admins, prevents self-pinging, removes smilies
and trackbacks, and a few other settings that nobody needs either. This is built
to be very generalized so it will work with every WordPress site as a good clean-
up fresh start and help keep clients out of the editing files.

#### Current Operations

 * Removed: clean up unneeded header tags including:
    - wlw manifest links
    - rsd links
    - previous and next post links
    - wordpress generator
    - shortlink generation
 * Removed: admin dashboard widgets:
    - core: quick draft / your recent drafts
    - core: wordpress events and news
    - plugin: yoast seo overview box
    - plugin: wp socializer box
    - plugin: w3 total cache news box
    - plugin: gravity forms box
    - plugin: bpress right now in forums
    - plugin: jetpack box
    - plugin: modern tribe rss box (issues/7)
 * Removed: post metabox’s
    - trackbacks
 * Removed: page metabox’s
    - comments box
    - discussion box
 * Removed: appearance menu theme editor
 * Removed: plugins editor menu
 * Removed: plugins list edit links
 * Removed: more jump link to #anchor
 * Removed: update notifications for non-admin users
 * Removed: potential for self ping backs
 * Removed: checks for and nukes Hello Dolly plugin _(sorry @photomatt)_
 * Off: turn off plugin/theme editor
 * Off: turn off global trackback/pingback setting
 * Off: turn off global formatting of text to graphic smilies

#### Additional Functionality

 * Do you use Yoast SEO? and don’t need all the beginner / noob stuff? Use this 
   plugin: [Yoast SEO Nuke Noob Stuff](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpseo-nuke-noob-stuff/)
 * Emojis scripts and support removal? I almost included it in this plugin but just
   use this plugin: [Disable Emojis](https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-emojis/)
 * Want to remove the Tools Menu? There’s a plugin for that: [Remove Tools Menu](https://wordpress.org/plugins/remove-tools-menu/)

#### Development

If you think you’d like to contribute, Pull Requests on [Develop Branch on Github](https://github.com/chuckreynolds/Selfish-Fresh-Start/tree/develop)

 * Built in Chandler AZ, Updated in San Francisco, CA. I always used
a lot of these functions on every site to help clean up the admin stuff and do some
basic settings and based on some twitter replies others wanted this too as a public
plugin. So… here we go. Feel free to do pull requests or add issues on github: [Develop Branch on Github](https://github.com/chuckreynolds/Selfish-Fresh-Start/tree/develop)

Cleaning up the dashboard and WordPress output is awesome. I’m gonna install this
on all of my new sites going forward.

I know people want more settings & such but the author is just providing this as
a service, not a product. Main options that make sense for most. Super appreciated!

 * all object oriented now and cleaned up code a lot. mo betta
 * HUGE pet peeve of mine is people pasting from word (or others) with formatted
   text. so i’m tired of fixing it all the time so lets force fix curly quotes and
   some common unicode, ascii, and utf-8 problems
 * remove dashboard welcome panel that was added in 3.5
 * added back author metabox on posts only. seem to use this more often so back 
   it goes
 * no longer adding user profile fields: twitter, facebook, linkedin, google plus.
   I took it out as most plugins now like Yoast SEO & Facebook’s add those fields
   in order to do authorship verification and twitter cards etc. used to be needed
   but other plugins have finally caught up. time to take it out of here.

#### 0.5

 * checking if DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT is defined or not to avoid issues. if not add 
   it.
 * comments div affecting some sites not able to turn them back on. spotty, so taking
   out for now

   hinder the ajax edit permalink updating function. that’s another issue with wordpress
   but had to stop hiding that until wp fixes that.

#### 0.3

 * added linkedin and google plus user fields

#### 0.2

 * removed generator tag. not really needed either, helps with security scanning.
 * updated to new adjacent_posts_rel_link_wp_head from old. guess that changed recently.
