Why you need Post ID Display

Shortcodes, page builders and developers often ask for a post ID. WordPress hides it in the edit URL.

What Post ID Display does

  • IDs in the list The ID appears in each row, for the post types you choose.

What you can configure

1 settings, all included with Pro.

  • Post Types Select the post types to display the post ID for.

Where Post ID Display helps

  • An agency team in a brick-walled studio reviewing WP Extended settings on a wall screen

    Shortcodes and builders

    Grab an ID without opening the post.

Post ID Display vs Reveal IDs

Reveal IDs has 40k+ active installs on WordPress.org. If you only need this one job, that’s a fine choice. If the site also needs other modules on this list, it’s one less plugin to update.

The difference
Post ID Display does the same core job inside WP Extended, so it shares one settings screen, one update and one support team with every other module you use.

For developers

Post ID Display has 2 hooks for changing its behaviour per project, without editing the plugin.

All Post ID Display hooks

add_filter( 'wpextended/post-id-display/excluded_post_types', function ( $value ) {
