Questions and troubleshooting

Is Post ID Display free?

No. It is part of WP Extended Pro.

It isn’t working as expected

Check the module is switched on and its settings are saved. If another plugin does the same job, deactivate one of them. Then clear any page cache and test again. Still stuck? Pro customers can contact support; free users can post on the WordPress.org forum.

Developers

Post ID Display has 2 hooks. See the Post ID Display developer reference.
