# Plugin Toggle

Quickly toggle plugin activation status from the toolbar.

## Description

For those times when you're too lazy to visit the Plugins screen to toggle a plugin on or off.

It's also helpful when troubleshooting:

> This simple plugin is awesome, especially when it comes to diagnosing problems. One of the tenants of troubleshooting WordPress is to disable every plugin and re-enable them one by one in a process of elimination.
>
> Generally, this is accomplished by having the plugin management page in one browser tab with the front end of the website in another.  When a plugin is deactivated, switch browser tabs and refresh to see if the problem disappears. Depending on the speed of your site and the number of plugins installed, this can be a cumbersome experience.

## Changelog

### 1.3.1 - December 27, 2016
* Listed plugins vertically in columns to make scanning easier and decrease disruption when adding or removing plugins.
* Attempt to detect scenarios where the admin screen being viewed is unavailable after deactivating a plugin and redirect to the Manage Plugins screen instead.

### 1.3.0 - December 1, 2016
* Transferred to [Cedaro](https://www.cedaro.com/).
* Removed the call to `load_plugin_textdomain()` in favor of [just-in-time text domain loading](https://make.wordpress.org/core/2016/07/06/i18n-improvements-in-4-6/) available sine WordPress 4.6.
* Updated URLs to https where possible.

### 1.2.0
* Internationalize the plugin to add support for language packs.
* Only load JavaScript and CSS files on the frontend when the toolbar is enabled.

### 1.1.6
* Increase the opacity of inactive plugins and bold active plugins to improve legibility.

### 1.1.5
* Set up the plugin on `init` instead of `plugins_loaded` to prevent issues with calling `current_user_can()` too early.

### 1.1.4
* Check for changes to the plugins directory or list of active plugins to determine if the cached plugins list should be refreshed.

### 1.1.3
* Display an error on the plugins screen if there's an issue during (de)activation.

### 1.1.2
* URL encode redirect URLs to prevent query string conflicts.

### 1.1.1
* Prevent a fatal error on activation due to stomping a variable passed by reference.

### 1.1.0
* Refactored the codebase to improve performance and legibility.

### 1.0.0
* Initial release.
