  • Imperative for loading multiple Widget Plugins

    I have over 9 plugins for elementor widgets. Sometimes necessary when needing specialized widget functions. Found out I had Widget Bloat. App helped me deactivate over 150 unusable widgets that were loading, but were never being used. Noticed a slight increase in TTFB speed. Not the entire answer to speed issues, but a great and easy tool to getting there.

    I was trying to remember what widgets were in use. This plugin made that task MUCH easier! Thank you plugin developer for making it!

  • fantastic!

    Really saved us trying to find external elementor plugins... much easier to use than searching all tables in the database, which is what we did previously.

  • Great plugin

    This is an essential plugin for anyone running a large Elementor system. There are so many widgets and the ability to know what you have and whether you really need certain plugins is essential to good maintenance
