## Description
The plugin displays properties and custom fields of WordPress entities (posts, users,
terms, comments) for debugging/development purposes.
#### Features
* Supported entities: posts (including custom post types), users, terms, comments
* Displayed data: properties (e.g. `ID`, `guid`, `post_type`) and custom fields(
e.g. `_edit_lock`, `_thumbnail_id` )
* Sorting by different conditions (ASC/DESC)
* Searching/filtering (with highlighting of found result)
* Pretty viewing of serialized data
* Auto-updating on Gutenberg’s “publish/update” actions
* Manual updating without refreshing a whole page
#### How it works
The plugin displays the metabox on “edit” pages of supported WordPress entities
in the WP Admin Panel.
The required role to access the info is `Administrator`
for “Single site” mode and `Super Admin` for “Multisite”.

Thank you for creating and maintaining this plugin. It has been one of a select
few essential plugins in my development workflow, alongside Query Monitor, Debug
Log Manager (mine), Variable Inspector (mine), SQL Buddy and WP Console. If you
have a donation link, please share it. Happy to donate.

Очень, очень удобный плагин для разработчика. Показывает все данные и меты разных
сущностей – посты, термы, юзеры. Очень удобно
