DevSniper – Global Developer Search

DevSniper brings two tools in one lightweight plugin:

  • Front-end Inspector for logged-in admins (or a custom capability via devsniper_required_cap). Hover to highlight, click to view tag/ID/classes, size and offsets, DOM path, CSS selector, source detection (Elementor/Gutenberg/Theme), copy buttons, quick “Open Editor” link, favourites, and a saved per-user toggle.
  • Admin Search (command palette) inside wp-admin with Ctrl/Cmd + K: quick results for posts/pages, media, users, admin pages, plus per-user favourites with a star toggle. Clean UI that respects WordPress styling, with tabs for General/Sources/Premium settings.

No tracking, no external requests, no locked “pro-only” code. Everything in this free version is fully usable.

SECURITY CHECKLIST

  • Capabilities: Inspector gated by manage_options (filter devsniper_required_cap); admin search limited to edit_posts.
  • Nonces: All AJAX routes verify devsniper_nonce plus capability checks before mutating data.
  • Sanitization/Escaping: All incoming text via sanitize_text_field/esc_url_raw; outputs escaped in HTML; URLs escaped.
  • External requests: None. No telemetry or third-party calls; assets served locally.
