JB Common

A plugin with common features missed in WordPress, like favicon, meta tags, adding HTML to head and footer, WordPress e-mail from header filter, etc. I've developed this plugin for my own job. I've realized that when I create a new WordPress project, there are some features I have to plugin every time. I decided to bundle they all into a single plugin, and I'm publishing it for other creators who may find it useful too. Take a look to the Changelog for a complete feature list, you may be interested in some of them.
