Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Code Profiler – WordPress Performance Profiling and Debugging Made Easy

They are completely different: Code Profiler analyzes the code performance of your plugins and themes on your server, at the PHP level. Google PageSpeed and GTmetrix, instead, analyze the content of a web page from a browser's perspective.

There's no need to deactivate Code Profiler when you don't use it, it has no performance impact on your site. Because an update can affect the performance of your site, you should consider running it after every plugin or theme update.

Code Profiler is multisite compatible. Note however that for security reasons, only the superadmin can run it.

WordPress >=5.0. PHP >=7.1 or 8.x.

Code Profiler does not collect any private data from you or your visitors. It does not use cookies either. Your website can run Code Profiler and be compliant with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or other similar privacy laws.
