FAQ
When I view the profile, it shows no results and says Total Number of Queries: 0 and Total Time: 0
First, make sure in your footer.php file that you are using the <?php wp_footer(); ?> tag. If you are, verify that you have added define('SAVEQUERIES', true); to your wp-config.php. Need more help? Support
ChangeLog
1.3.3
Fixing a bug where the css is always enabled, even if the plugin isn’t.
1.3.2
Adds front end functionality to the wp-admin. Helpful for debugging admin or plugin scripts under development inside wp-admin.
1.3
This version adds db optimization functionality.
- Support to disable post revisions: Post revisions can bloat your database by retaining previously saved versions of your post, which you may never use.
- Support to disable auto saving: Auto saving can bloat your database by assigning different id’s each time an item is saved, this adding an unnecessary record to the db.
1.2.1
- Update to license information
1.2
- New configuration options to specify which user levels can view profiling (no longer restricted to Administrator)
- ?show_queries=true can now be used in addition to ?show_queries=yes
- Users not logged in can never view profiling

1.0.1
Groups duplicate function calls and gives a total time for the grouped calls. Also styles the profiling a bit to mirror Kohana’s profiling coloring. Also added a fix to PHP 5.2.1 where scientific notation was displaying instead of the true time.
This plugin will give you the total number of queries to the db per page, as well as the total time it took to render those queries out to the page. Additionally, line by line each individual query will display with the originating SQL statement, time executed and the function call used to execute the query.
This is especially handy if you are debugging a slow WordPress install and can’t seem to locate the cause of the load. It is also a great way to identify plugins that may not have proper caching enabled or supported.
This is NOT a full page load profiler. This simply shows you the total DB queries and the time it takes to execute.
