## Beschrijving

This plugin makes it easy to distinguish between your local development site, and
your live site.
 I created this because I often use a local duplicate of my live
site, for development, with the same DB, and the same URL.

I needed a quick & easy way of distinguishing between my live and development sites
at a glance. This plugin acheives that in the simplest way possible.

There are settings for colour, positioning and the text displayed on the badge. 
It is also possible to add a link onto the badge.

#### From WordPress.org

## FAQ

### Can I create my own CSS for the badge?

Currently, you can customise the colour, text and position of the badge. The ability
to add a custom class is coming in the next release.

Feel free to just style `.wp-dev-flag` yourself though.

I will also explore additonal options such as custom fonts & href functionality.

### Will the badge display on my live site if I duplicate the entire database as is?

No, it detects the current server environment and if it doesn’t match the environment
that was set originally, the plugin will not display the badge. You can simply click
update to set the new environment if required.

### Can I add a link to the badge?

Yes, as of Version 1.3.0 you can add your own link and toggle it to open in a new
tab.

 [evangun](https://profiles.wordpress.org/evangun/) 21 november 2020

I downloaded the plugin but did not install it when I saw the number of files. It
might be great, I won’t say anything on it, I just wanted to share a few lines of
code that did the job for me instead: if (defined('WP_DEBUG') and true === WP_DEBUG){//
add a green dot at the bottom left of the screen // when WP_DEBUG in wp-config is
true function devTag () { echo '<div style="background:green;border-radius:10px;
bottom:20px;height:10px;left:20px;position:fixed;width:10px;z-index: 9999;"></div
>'; } add_action('wp_body_open', 'devTag'); }

Installed this on my website when I was developing it, and it’s been a very handy
yet simple tool for me. It’s now part of my toolkit for when I am developing WordPress
websites.
