Erfika Optimizer
v3.4.0 · by Erfika
A local-first Optimization Lab that profiles each WordPress site before suggesting cleanup and conservative optimization actions.
About this plugin
Erfika Optimizer 3.4 is built around an adaptive Optimization Lab rather than a fixed list of generic optimization switches.
The Lab creates a local site profile, measures cleanup opportunities, estimates autoloaded option data through WordPress APIs, generates site-specific recommendations, stores a local baseline, and lets administrators compare later scans against that baseline.
Key features:
- Explainable Opportunity Map: each finding answers what it means, what was measured, and what a non-technical administrator should do next.
- Impact Passport: records Optimizer actions with before/after local measurements so administrators can see what actually changed.
-
Read-only heavy-autoload view: surfaces the largest always-loaded options without automatically deleting or disabling unknown data.
-
Local Optimization Lab with an on-demand site scan.
- Site-specific recommendation engine based on measured local conditions.
- Baseline and before/after comparison.
- Local scan history (last 10 scans).
- Conservative one-click optimization profile with settings rollback.
- Approximate autoload footprint measurement using WordPress-loaded options.
- Revision, expired transient, auto-draft, trash and junk-comment opportunity detection.
- Cleanup of revisions, expired transients, auto drafts, trash, and spam/trash comments.
- Configurable revision retention.
- Database table optimization.
- Advanced CSS and JavaScript handle controls for experienced administrators.
- Heartbeat controls for dashboard, editor, and front end.
- Optional removal of common WordPress front-end overhead.
- No cloud account and no automatic telemetry.
The Lab Score is an internal prioritization indicator based only on the local conditions the plugin measures. It is not PageSpeed, Core Web Vitals, a hosting benchmark, or a guarantee of performance improvement.
The conservative profile changes only Erfika Optimizer settings and stores the previous plugin settings so they can be restored. Destructive database cleanup remains a separate manual action and is never run by the conservative profile.
Privacy
Erfika Optimizer performs its Optimization Lab scans locally. It does not automatically send site, user, administrator, scan, or performance data to erfika.com or another external service.
