\"CodeYou love code snippets.<\/p>\n

Why wouldn’t you? They’re like mini plugins – all the functionality, none of the bloat. You can cherry pick the key features that you need and keep your site lean and mean.<\/p>\n

However, code snippets aren’t perfect. Before long, your functions.php file can start to get rather packed and messy. It can be difficult to remember what snippets you have, and why.<\/p>\n

It’s not quite as straightforward as your plugins list, is it? At least you can easily spot a no longer needed plugin and do away with it – it’s not so easy when it comes to code snippets.<\/p>\n

\"Code<\/a><\/p>\n

If you’re a heavy (or even moderate) user of code snippets, this plugin is a must-have addition to your site.<\/p>\n

To be quite honest, I think it would make a lot of sense for this to be added to WordPress by default. Code snippets are widely-used, and perhaps it is about time that a GUI such as that in Code Snippets was developed as part of a future WordPress update.<\/p>\n
